Viac o knihe

This striking work recounts the captivity of a Russian peasant named Michailow in the late 18th century at the hands of various Central Asian tribes. From his time among the Kalmucs, to his travels through the country of the Kirghiz and Kiwenses, Mikhailov provides an engaging account of a life totally foreign to most readers.
