"Siberia To-Day" by Frederick Ferdinand Moore is a detailed account of the author's observations and experiences during his service in Siberia after World War I, likely written in the early 20th century. The book aims to provide insights into the lives of the Siberian people and the complexities arising from the aftermath of the Russian Revolution and the emergence of Bolshevism. It emphasizes the challenges faced by American troops, rather than presenting it as a war narrative filled with thrilling exploits. The beginning of "Siberia To-Day" introduces Frederick Ferdinand Moore as he prepares for his journey to Siberia, receiving orders in Washington, D.C. in July 1918. As he reflects on the absurdity of being sent to a place associated with cold and exile in the sweltering heat of a summer day, he describes the moment leading to his deployment with a blend of humor and apprehension. The narrative sets the tone for his journey, filled with bureaucracy, and characterizes his interaction with fellow officers who share the burdens of military planning as they transition from Washington to the transport ship. Through his perspective, Moore incisively touches on the inefficiencies and unique experiences of American soldiers embarking on an expedition into the unknown, hinting at the cultural confrontations and paradoxes he will encounter along the way.
