America Through Russian Eyes, 1874-1926

By Olga Peters Hasty

An engaging collection of travel accounts by Russian writers-among them Maxim Gorky and Grigorij Machtet- who visited America around the turn of the century. The documents, most of which appear in English for the first time, are interwoven with explanatory comments by editors Olga Peters Hasty and Susanne Fusso. Together the pieces offer fresh insights into both the American experience and the Russian mind.
