Travel Tales

A lovely Latvian lady is awaiting the return of the Nazi occupiers of Latvia. She has reasons to be afraid. She had worked for the Soviets, when they ruled her country, and that could mean execution. Another thread existed because she had helped Jews escape from imprisonment. Will the invading Germans allow her to work, or will they put her in prison?

The author tells other stories he heard on travels in the Pamir Mountains, the Saint Petersburg to Moscow nighttime special train, and in India at a wedding temple.
