La Russie en 1839, Volume III by marquis de Astolphe Custine
"La Russie en 1839, Volume III" by marquis de Astolphe Custine is a travel account published in 1843. The work chronicles Custine's journey through Russia from June to September 1839, visiting Saint Petersburg, Moscow, and other cities. Drawing on his aristocratic connections and meetings with Tsar Nicholas I, Custine presents Russia as a backward country governed by fear and violence. Though banned in Russia, the book achieved significant success across Europe and
was later rediscovered during the Cold War for its prophetic insights. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
