A narrator recalls a five day voyage on the Missouri aboard the Arabia from St. Louis to Kansas City and Leavenworth. They observe river scenery bluffs and sandbars, mingle with passengers, discuss love and solitude, and witness a dramatic palace assassination in St Petersburg night.
Special correspondent reports on the June 18 1855 bombardment and failed assault at Sevastopol.
