" . . . sparkles with wit, intelligence and bold characterization." --Women's Review of Books

" . . . a ripping yarn . . . admirable translation . . . sensitive introductory essay." --Times Literary Supplement

" . . . a remarkable journal worthy of the attention of a wide audience." --Doris Grumbach, National Public Radio

In male guise, Nadezhda Durova served ten years in the Russian cavalry. The Cavalry Maiden is a lively narrative which appeals in our own time as a unique and gripping contribution to the literature of female experience.
