Add to basketUnbound. Condition: Fair. No Dust Jacket. On offer is a wonderful description of an American girl visiting Tsarist Russia in the years before the revolution. The author of this travel journal is Olive Whipple Peabody (1886-1969) , the adopted daughter of the American lawyer and philanthropist, Philip G. Peabody (1857-1934). To l…earn about Philip & Olive, please see BIO NOTES at the conclusion of the listing. In this journal, Olive describes a trip she took with her adoptive father, Philip, in 1908. This amazingly detailed diary is exceptional with its fascinating details of all that she saw and did in St. Petersburg and Moscow. The journal opens with them in Sweden: "Dad and I returned from Kristiania this morning. Our train left Kristiania at 6 o'clock last night and we rode without any change of cars until 7: 50 this morning when we entered the large Central Station of Stockholm ." [May 17]They spent several days visiting historical sites in Stockholm before sailing for Finland and Russia. They arrived in St. Petersburg on May 21st: "All the Russian churches and many of the people have a sort of unclean odor. Found St. Isaac's Cathedral more impressive than the Kazan Cathedral. This Cathedral stands in the Nevsky Prospekt - the long main street of St. Petersburg. It has an arched colonnade of 136 pillars in imitation of St. Peter's at Rome". [May 22]"A guide took us about St. Isaac's Cathedral and showed us the valuable stones set in the gold icons, until we really believed that the wealth of Russia is in the Cathedrals. I visited twice The Memorial Church, built on the exact spot where Alexander II was murdered. The stones in the pavement are left just as they were The Cathedral of Peter & Paul is an oblong building, 210 feet in length and 98 in breadth. All the sovereigns of Russia since the foundation of St. Petersburg lie buried in the Cathedral, except Peter II. The bodies are deposited under the floor of the church and the marble tombs above marking the sites of the graves." [May 22]"We asked admissions to the Winter Palace and we were sent on, from one man in charge to another, then another & so on till at least we were shown into a little room where we sat down on benches and waited. We did not know how long we would have to wait before someone came. No one spoke English or French. We decided to go on to another Cathedral for we had only the afternoon before we left for Moscow. We went to the bazaars but really most of them were closed for some sort of a holiday. Lots of things were very expensive. Dry goods priced in the windows of the shops were terribly high. A very large good natured cat sat in the door way of every shop. Candy and fruit were very expensive. Car fares cheap - hotels poor & expensive - cab fares moderate." [May 23]"Passports are compulsory in Russia. Anywhere & everywhere you go a passport is demanded. At every Russian hotel it is taken by the manager, then given to the police official of the hotel. The next day it is returned to us after there has been a most careful examination. Even my age is required. We have been delighted to get permission in London of the Russian consul to enter Russia! To remain in St Petersburg and permission to remain in Moscow. Then permission to leave the country. Police officials attend to all this, and a charge is made each time. Often times you need a passport even to enter a public building". [May 23]"We left the Hotel de France at 6 o'clock yesterday and drove to the Nicholas R. R. Station. The cab was so small we could barely get in with our luggage. My suit case had to ride outside in the pouring rain. At the station only two small settees near the door to accommodate the hundreds of people who would wait for trains. I managed to get a seat on one bench. The moment anyone moved 20 people were after that seat. Dad was standing in line 40 minutes for our tickets. Our train to Moscow was the largest one I ever saw. We walked nearly a quarter of a mile before we came to our places. Dad had to ride in a men'. Illustrated by / (illustrator).
