    The Boy Travellers in the Russian Empire by Thomas Wallace Knox audiobook. Step aboard an unforgettable 19th-century Russian odyssey as told by Thomas Wallace Knox—where two spirited American lads, under the watchful eye of their intrepid tutor Captain Bridgen, race across frozen Baltic straits in clattering sleighs, marvel at gilded Tsarist palaces, and stand awestruck before the opulent Kremlin towers; where you’ll almost feel the rumble of the Transcaucasian railway under your feet as the boys cross windswept steppes, dodge wild wolves on moonlit hunts, and share steaming bowls of borscht with hospitable Cossack families; where every cathedral’s onion dome and every bustling market stall in St. Petersburg and Moscow is painted in vivid, colorful prose so that you can almost taste the rye bread and hear the distant clang of church bells. From hair-raising near-disasters on stormy seas to heart-warming encounters with kindly villagers and excitable Tartar caravans, this audiobook’s lively narration whisks you into a world of imperial intrigue, folk-tale wonder, and boyish curiosity—perfect for armchair adventurers, history buffs, and anyone craving the crackle of fresh snow underfoot.

I've now listened to several of these 800+ (and growing) episodes/books, and sampled many more. They are read well, for the most part, and cover a broad range of topics, authors and time periods. There are both fiction and non-fiction, children's, YA and adult titles. I assume all are in the public domain, whether by lapsed or expired copyright. A number of the series' titles are otherwise unavailable for free through Audible, but the edition for sale on Audible will likely be a better reading or translation. I haven't checked, but some of the more obsure titles are likely not available at all. Some have attributions to Librivox, but a variety of sources seem to be drawn from. The biggest drawback, due to the podcast/episode structure of the collection, is that you can't search by title or author, only by upload date. You must load page after page until you find (or don't find) a title or author you're hoping is in the collection. But what do you want for FREE? There are both diamonds and lumps of coal in this mine. You just have to keep digging until you find your diamonds.
