Astrakhan is half a city of the wa
ters. Aimless branches of the great
Volga twist through the outlying sec
lions, flecked with white sails and dot
ted with rowboats. The big river steam
ers come almost into the heart of the
city. This is the naval base of Rus
sia's Caspian fleet. Between the city
and the inland sea the waters spread
and widen until the lower villages are
often made up chiefly Of anchored
barges and households.
