A Voyage Down The Volga
Russian lifestyle between St. Petersburg and Odessa
A culinary voyage across Russia on a sailboat: An extraordinary presentation of Russian lifestyle captured on many fascinating photos.
Abroad the boat of Rollo Gebhard, the legendary sailor, and sailing under Russian flag, the authors set out for a culinary voyage down the Volga, from the Baltic Sea to the mouth of the river into the Caspian Sea. On their forbidden expedition into the heart of Russia, they discovered the secrets of the Russian cuisine: What did the Czars, monks, dictators, Cossacks, peasants, workers and poets and writers eat and drink? What kind of lifestyle do the "New Russians" pursue? The authors collected anecdotes and recipes and now present in pictures and prose the charming history of the Russsian culinary culture.
Andrey Alexander writes about his trips around the globe and works as a journalist, for example "Geo". The photographer, caricaturist and actor lives in Moscow and Cologne.
