Because the title of this book denotes waterways of Russia, it is
inherent that the text envelopes around that theme. Within the
story related, transverse trajectories of some of the extensive
waterways of Russia, including rivers, reservoirs, canals, and
lakes, are passed over by the river cruise-boat named Bauman. Some
included are Volga, Rybinsk, Sheksna, Kouzha, and Svir Rivers, as
well as Rybinsk Reservoir, Moscow-Volga Canal, White Lake, Onega
Lake, and Lake Ladoga, all within the confines of Russia. The
cruise on the Bauman enlightened members with much of the geography
of Russia's waterways, bringing them into close proximity with
towns, monasteries, churches and other important sights along the
way, encouraging meandering and contemplation. Preceding the water
cruise Moscow City was explored and near the end of the cruise
Helsinki, Finland. It all made for an exciting and rewarding
journey. This book goes into detail on many of the sights explored,
especially the exciting towns, churches, and waterways that were
explored. However, the book should be especially rewarding to
anyone interested in the city of Helsinki, Moscow and St.
Petersburg, where special emphases has been placed.
