The White Sea Peninsula

The White Sea Peninsula: A Journey in Russian Lapland and Karelia is a travelogue written by Edward Rae in 1881. The book details Rae's journey through the remote and rugged region of Lapland and Karelia in northern Russia, which borders the White Sea. Rae describes the landscape, the people he meets, and their customs and traditions. He also discusses the history of the area, including the impact of Russian colonization and the influence of the Orthodox Church. The book includes illustrations and maps of the region, as well as Rae's observations on the flora and fauna of the area. The White Sea Peninsula is a fascinating account of a little-known part of Russia, and provides insight into the culture and way of life of the people who call it home.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
