O knihe
First published in 1968. This is a volume of selected passages from the extensive diary of General Gordon: the soldier of fortune, whose memoirs are now introduced to the Spadling Club, who had been but a short while dead when public attention was turned to the eight or ten thick quartos, in which, for forty years, he had recorded, day by day, the incidents of his eventful life. So early as 1724, a translation of the Journal from its original English into Russian. In printing these selections, an attempt has been made so far to connect them together, by an outline of Gordon's life in the interval, with occasional quotations from some of the more memorable pages of his Journal, such as those in which he notes the beginnings of his intimacy with Peter the Great or chronicles the prompt and vigorous acts by which he quelled the revolt of the Strelitzes.
