The Cavalry Maiden: Journals of a Russian Officer in the Napoleonic Wars (Indiana-Michigan Series in Russian and East European Studies)

"... sparkles with wit, intelligence and bold characterization." â€•Womenâ€™s Review of Books
"... a ripping yarn... admirable translation... sensitive introductory essay." â€•Times Literary Supplement
"... a remarkable journal worthy of the attention of a wide audience." â€•Doris Grumbach, National Public Radio
In male guise, Nadezhda Durova served ten years in the Russian cavalry. The Cavalry Maiden is a lively narrative which appeals in our own time as a unique and gripping contribution to the literature of female experience.
