But “Russia and the World” is not by any means wholly a war book. It is a comprehensive survey of Russian problems. Inasmuch as the War is at present one of her problems it receives its due consideration. It has been, however, Mr. Graham’s intention to supply the very definite need that there is for enlightenment in English and American circles as to the Russian nation, what its people think and feel on great world matters. On almost every country there are more books and more concrete information than on his chosen land. In fact, “Russia and the World” may be regarded as one of the very first to deal with it in any adequate fashion. THE MACMILLAN COMPANY Publishers 64-66 Fifth Avenue New York _BY THE SAME AUTHOR_ A Tramp’s Sketches _Cloth, illustrated, 8vo, $1.75_ “The author’s notes on people and places, jotted down in the open air, while sitting on logs in the forests or on bridges over mountain streams, form a simple narrative of a walking trip through Russia. The sketches read like those of a rebel against modern conditions and commercialism, who prefers to these the life of a wanderer in the wilderness.”--_Outdoor World._ “A book throbbing with life which cannot help but prove of interest to many readers. The book is a treasury of information, and will be a source of great inspiration to those who love mankind; while the author tells us much of the sorrow and degradation of the world he also tells as much of his own high and noble thinking.”--_The Examiner._ “It is with life itself rather than the countries visited that this collection of sketches is concerned. It is personal and friendly in tone, and was written mostly in the open air while the author was tramping along the Caucasian and Crimean shores of the Black Sea, and on a pilgrimage with Russian peasants to Jerusalem.”--_Country Life in America._ “Mr. Graham has seen many interesting parts of the world, and he tells of his travels in a pleasing way.”--_Suburban Life._ “... there is much that the reader will heartily appreciate and enjoy.”--_Boston Transcript._ THE MACMILLAN COMPANY Publishers 64-66 Fifth Avenue New York _BY THE SAME AUTHOR_ With Poor Immigrants to America _Decorated cloth, 8vo, illustrated, $2.00_ “We collected on the quay at Liverpool--English, Russians, Jews, Germans, Swedes, Finns.... Three hundred yards out in the harbor stood the red funneled Cunarder which was to bear us to America....” The beginning of the voyage is thus described, a voyage during which the reader sees life from a new angle. The trip across is, however, but the forerunner of even more interesting days. Stephen Graham has the spirit of the real adventurer and the story of his intimate association with the immigrants is an intensely human and dramatic narrative, valuable both as literature and as a sympathetic interpretation of a movement which too frequently is viewed only with unfriendly eyes.
