Excerpt from England and Russia in Central Asia, Vol. 1The words used here will be proved true, and the only effectual remedies against the evil are those bold measures from which timid spirits would shrink. The pith of the whole argument is to be found in the fact that we are now strong enough to solve the Central Asian Question wholly in our own favour.

Or shall we finish the business out of hand?About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
