according to his own will. In Manchuria he
found it necessary to assume a disguise. in
order to escape the Russian prejudice against
prowling Britshers part of the time beating
his way the railroad after the manner of
the genus Hobo. var Americanus. In such
fashion he enjoyed peculiarly intimate view
of the country and of the people, both lay and
official, and, being uncommonly shTewd and
appreciatiye observer. with choice knack of en-
tering into the spirit of what he sees and of ez
pressing that spirit to his readers. he thus quail
fled himself to write a conspicuously entertain
ing and instructive book
He entered, we have said, into the spirit of
what he saw: that is the spirit of Russia and
the Russian people. That is a achievement.
We must remember that the Russians ways are
not our ways. Their mental and spiritual
constitution differs from ours 1t is not difficult
for an American or an Engiishman to under

artisan performs various manual tasks in the
opposite direction from that immemoriaIIv

Russians, and so it is that we cannot properly
understand them and their ways if we regard
them only from point of view. We must in
some way put ourselves in their place or view
things from their point of view. That is a
difficult thing to do. but Mr.. Gerrare seems to
have done it with exceptional success He has
entered into the very psychology of Russia, and
SO is able to give US a vital character study not
only of the husk, but of the very kernel of
Russia and the Russians

is at present unable TO handle.
