Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travels in the Steppes of the Caspian Sea: The Crimea, the Caucasus, &C Thus protected by the local authorities, I was enabled to collect the most authentic information respecting the state of men and things. Hence I was naturally led to superadd to my scientific pursuits considerations of all kinds connected with the history, statistics, and actual condition of the various races inhabiting Southern Russia. I was, moreover, strongly encouraged in In new task by the desire to make known in their true light all those southern regions of the empire which have played so important a part in the history of Russia since the days of Peter the Great. My wife, who braved all hardships to accompany me in most of my Journeys, has also been the partner of my literary labours in France. To her belongs all the descriptive part of this book of travels.
