Omtale

John Dundas Cochrane (1780–1825) was destined for the sea from an early age, but is best remembered as 'the Pedestrian Traveller'. This 1824 account of his travels across Europe, Russia and Siberia is full of interesting anecdotes and observations about a then unknown and mysterious area of the world.
