SECOND EDITION ENLARGED . This day is published * in 8 vo , price 14 s . HTHE EUSSIAN SHOEES OP THE X BLACK SEA IN THE AUTUMN OF 1852 ; with a Voyage down the Volga and a Tour through the Cpupti-y of theXn Cossacks . By LAURENCE OLIPHANT , Author of a " Jotirney to Nepaul . " With Si Engravings on Wood , Enlarged Map of the Crimea , aad Map of tho Authors Route . ¦ " The latest and the best account of the actual state of Russia . "—Standard . " We have availed ourselves so often of late of the opportune information afforded by Mr . Oliphanfc , that we have left ourselves , as critics , little to say of his yolutnfe . . . - The information collected by Mr . Oliphant during his hasty tour was considerable ( the field is almost untrodden ) , and is the more worthy , of credence that he gives it for exactly what it is worth—frankly telling what his sources were , and pointing out their inadequacy when not entirely to , ^> e relied upon . The book bears ex facie indisputable marks of the shrewdness , quick-sightedness , candour , and veracity of the author . It is the production of a gentleman in the true English sense of fee word . "—Daily News . "It was with considerable interest in the light to jw * thrown on them by so intelligent an observer as Mr . Oliphant has shown himself to be , that we took up ma new work , which , though it describes men , manners , and scenery comprised within the boundaries of our own Europe , seemed to promise as much novelty as he detailed to us in his lively account of remote barbaric Nepaul . We have not been disappointed . Mr . Oliphant saw much that no recent observer has described , and he relates his experiences in a Btyle fresh , interesting , and often very graphic He had evidently no bias for or against Russia , and he says what he has to say in the calm and impartial tone of a reporter , which best befits such a subject at such a time . "— Globe . " Mr . Oliphant is a traveller of the sober , inquisitive , and useful , rather than the sentimental and descriptive school . He indulges in no rhapsodies ; we infer that ho has few illusions . His tones are grey and his landscapes those or the daguerreotype—nature reproduced with her outlines correct , and with the loss of much local colour . He may be taken as a pretty safe guide through a part of Russia little traversed by his countrymen—the line of the VoJga between Niini Novgorod and JDubovka and the Cossack steppe between that town and tho Crimea;—while his observations at Sevastopol , Odessa , and other vaunted places of the . Blaok Sea , strike uffas equally trustworthy . "—Afhenaum . " The facts which he details in support of his view of the Russian government , and the considerations by which no endeavour * to arouse tho English public to a sense of the dangers of Russian aggression , arc both worthy of the most serious attention . "—Guardian . " This is a book of travels distinguished from the majority of such books by the freshness of its matter , the importance of its political information , especially at this time , and the unusual simplicity and trustworthiness of its treatment , Mr . Oliphant has not only travelled where few European travellers have been before him , but ho has wandered amid scenes of which every one is anxious to hear . "—JLeadcr . William Blackwood and Sons , Edinburgh and London .
