    About this ebook

    “Here Come the Russians” captures in short sketches and anecdotes the historical periods in early Philadelphia and Washington, DC, when the Russian Empire’s Ministers Plenipotentiaries and then Ambassadors (after April 1898) lived and worked closely with the American governmental officials and the president. Many of the Russian officials were well received. Three ministers married American wives and two individuals made mistakes and were recalled by their home government.
