Notes: "The subjects are partly selected from Müller's interesting Description of all the nations of the Russian Empire, and partly from the invaluable Travels of Professor Pallas...in collecting materials for the Historical Descriptions, recourse has been had to the labours of Müller, Pallas, Coxe, Fischer, Kracheninikof...without deprecating the other performances of a similar nature, the Publisher flatters himself that it will be found the most complete work of the kind that has hitherto appeared in this or in any country."
