Poverty in Far Siberia and Army Life Letters
A soldier in Company I writes from Khabarovsk in May 1919 describing poverty and squalor around the river town, the labor scene, prices, Chinese and Russian traders, and longing for home. He notes monotony of life, conditions for cooks and masons, and plans for future travel as others guard prisoners upriver.
