The stories in the section entitled Red Cavalry, with the ex- ception of ‘Argamak’, were originally published in America in Nadia Helstein’s translation and in Great Britain in John Harland’s translation by Alfred A. Knopf, Inc., in 1929; they have been revised by Walter Morison for this edition. ‘The Sin of Jesus’ was translated by Mirra Ginsburg; ‘First Love’ by Esther and Joseph Riwkin; and ‘Guy de Maupassant’ by Raymond Rosenthal and Waclaw Solski. All the other stories       have been translated by Walter Morison.
