Annotation

J. Stadling is a well-known Swedish journalist and traveller, who spoke the Russian language. In 1892, he visited Russia to transfer the donations from his compatriots for the Famine in Russia and to provide back the picture of what was actually happening in the country. The Swedish journalist worked with the family of L. Tolstoy, and wrote about it in his articles in English and his later memoirs. The Russian writer had a long and cordial relationship with Sweden.
