MICHAEL STROGOFF: THE COURIER OF THE CZAR: ILLUSTRATED WITH SCENES FROM THE PHOT

It is still full of the rich scenes and story of a Siberian-born man who braved the Kirghiz rebellion in Alexander II's Imperial Russia to deliver a warning to the Tsar's brother in Irkutsk about a Russian traitor leading the Khan's forces who was bent on revenge against the Tsar's brother for being cashiered from the Russian Army. The story is ageless and told with that special flair that only Jules Verne could manage. (Amazon customer)
