Excerpt from Some Early Russo-Chinese Relations
The following pages are translated from M. Gaston Gaben's Histoire des Relations de la Russia avec la Chine sous Pierre le Grand (i689 published in 1912. M. Cahen's volume consists of a concisely written text, fully documented and annotated. This translation is mainly from the text, practically the whole of which is here given, but with the translation of the text have been incorporated supplementary details from M. Cahen's notes; and occasional additional items of interest drawn from the same subsidiary source are here given as footnotes. Whilst the sequence of M. Gaben's text has been maintained, the chapter divisions are not those of the original.
