"Dersu the Trapper is so good a book that one wonders who Arseniev is and why this book has not been translated from the Russian before... [It] is a classic that will keep both Arseniev and Dersu alive in our hearts." -- Yale Review "Arseniev...the great explorer of Eastern Siberia...opens up a world of which we have hitherto had very little information. Thanks to his descriptions we obtain a vivid conception of the natural conditions and the inhabitants of this distant forest country." -- Fritjof Nansen
