Great Russian author Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818-1883) was an
avid hunter and nature lover and used his own experiences in the
woods of his native Russia to pen A HUNTER'S SKETCHES (written in
the period of 1852-1874). This work established his reputation as a
foremost writer of his time. Do you know, for instance, the delight
of setting off before daybreak in spring? You come out on to the
steps...In the dark-grey sky stars are twinkling here and there; a
damp breeze in faint gusts flies to meet you now and then; there is
heard the secret, vague whispering of the night; the trees faintly
rustle, wrapt in darkness. And now they put a rug in the cart, and
lay a box with the samovar at your feet. -- from The Forest And The
Steppe
