Summary "Autobiography of Andrew Dickson White — Volume 2" by Andrew Dickson White is a historical account written during the late 19th century. The work presents a detailed narrative of the author's experiences and reflections during his diplomatic service, particularly his time as the United States Minister to Russia between 1892 and 1894. The autobiography sheds light on various interactions with significant historical figures and explores the socio-political landscape of Russia during that period. At the start of the autobiography, the author recounts his surprise at receiving the appointment as Minister to Russia after previously expressing candid opinions on administrative shortcomings to President Harrison. He reflects on his travels to St. Petersburg, the changes in Russia since his last visit, and his immediate impressions of Emperor Alexander III and the heir to the throne, Nicholas II. The opening portion highlights White's conversations with influential individuals regarding the treatment of Jews in Russia and delves into his observations on Russian governance, societal conditions, and the diplomatic challenges he faced, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of his diplomatic missions and personal insights throughout the volume.
