Light and Shade: Sketches from an Uncommon Life
Bard, Solomon Matthew
Solomon Bard's life has been an extraordinary story of a peripatetic youth, of incident and adventure, and of varied enthusiasms pursued with great energy to a very high level. Illustrated with many photos, this collection of autobiographical essays tells of Dr Bard's childhood in Eastern Siberia, with a detour to Moscow and the Crimea.
