Summary "Lippincott's Magazine of Popular Literature and Science, Volume 15, No. 87" is a collection of articles and stories published during the mid-19th century. This issue, dated March 1875, features a variety of pieces ranging from illustrated narratives to essays on social commentary, including "An Escape From Siberia" which discusses the plight and resilience of Polish political exiles. The opening of this magazine presents a serialized account by Rufin Piotrowski, detailing his harrowing escape from Siberian exile. It begins with a poignant reflection on the emotional pain of parting for those faced with exile, transitioning into Piotrowski's daring journey from a political prisoner to a secret agent working to return to Poland. The narrative vividly chronicles his adventures through various European countries while maintaining his disguise, his apprehension during interactions with strangers, and the eventual complications leading to his arrest and transfer to a harsh prison environment. This early section sets the tone for a compelling exploration of patriotism, identity, and the human spirit's struggle against oppression. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
