Scope and Contents
The title of the main text is on folio 2. It is followed by a 'Short Delineation' (folio 17) and a map (folio 22) of the district. It is presumably a contemporary translation of part of the route of the return journey of Catherine II from her visit to the south and the then recently acquired territories in the Crimea.
