James Miller was active as publisher for juvenile series and other books between 1850s & 1870s. See more on him here.

Translated from Russian by Walter May. "In olden times, when the cavalry
was on the march a rider was sent ahead of the force, and he was called a Gaidar.
In literature this rider was Arkady Petrovich Golikov who chose the eloquent
pen-name Gaidar. He lived a difficult, too short, but happy life. In 1919, a
boy of fifteen. ... Gaidar enlisted in the Red Army and till the end, till his
last breath remained a fighter, first armed with a rifle and then with his inspiried
pen." This tale is a children's story (the Young Pioneers) about the bravery
of a young boy who gave his life to help the Red Army defeat the "Big Bourgeooi".
Each page of text is faced with a full page illustration.
