This work contains impressions written to the Purina family. Mr. Danforth is not posing as an authority on Russia. He is not interested politically or commercially in Russia. However, many people are interested in Russia, and because of his extraordinary privilege of observation, he believes it is his duty to pass on his experiences to our Purina family and his interested friend. Contents: Brush Up on Background; First Impressions of Russia; Russia's Challenging Experiment; Can Russia Do Without God? Bolshevism in Business; Birth, Marriage, Divorce, Death; The Last of the Romanoffs; A Close-up of Some of the Communist Leaders; My Personal Opinion About Russia.
