Synopsis
Excerpt from Russia
I have attempted in the present work an outline Of Russian history, with such a grouping of the chief facts as would enable my readers to understand the development of the-country from the little Grand Duchy Of Muscovy in the fifteenth century to the present mighty empire with its hundred million in habitants. While I have not intentionally concealed the darker Shades Of the picture, I have endeavoured to avoid drawing my Sketch from an English stand point only. Still less havei felt inclined to indulge in any of the claptrap abuse with which some Western authors season their books on Russia. All nations have been aggressive in their way, and therefore it is idle to talk overmuch about Russian aggressions; all nations have some blood-stained pages in their annals, and therefore it is something like hypocrisy to be struck with especial horror at Russia's misdeeds.
