Eng. translation of 1835 Taras Bulba?

[Helena Goscilo]

There's an old--by some standards, ancient--translation by Andrew MacAndrew
(alas, famous for all sorts of lapses in Englishing Russian texts) in the
collection titled *The Diary of a Madman and Other Stories* (Signet/New
American Library 1960). Most libraries likely have the volume. Since the
work is short (in this version, approx. 130 pages), one could PDF the
translation and send it to students as an email attachment, with a "caveat
lector."
