Dakota, you may want to try out this website. Can't say if it is anything like Chuchin, but it seems very well-researched to me.

On the introduction page there are also a few other books mentioned, including something currently being written by a Canadian guy.
Does anyone here know of a "good" Zemstvos catalog written in any European (English would be best) language - other than Cyrillic?
I know of the Chuchin - I've been told it ain't wonderful! I can stagger thru French, Dutch, German. Italian and Spanish - but not Russian.
Anyone??????
