In 1905, when the Russian Empire was defeated in the Russo-Japanese War, finding itself on the verge of revolution, British mining engineer Nelson Fell bought out copper deposits in the Kazakh steppe and became manager of the Spassky Copper Ores joint-stock company. From the first words, his memories of the Steppe region captivate the reader with their simplicity of presentation and remarkable sincerity. The special character and traditions of the steppe people, living in harmony with nature, and their selfless attitude towards people are especially attractive to a representative of Western civilization and form the basis of his interesting stories.
