Russia And The World A Study Of The War And A Statement Of The World Problems That Now Confront Russia And Great Britain Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Russia and the World a Study of the War and a Statement, of the World-Problems That, Now Confront Russia, and Great Britain No one could say with whom there was war, but there certainly was war with someone. It was a terrible moment when I heard that Germany had declared war on Russia, but it was tempered by the fact that I could hardly believe the news to be true. Still, with the call to arms, my vagabondage in Central Asia came to an end for the time being. So the war came across my little thread of life. This book takes up my story on the day of mobilisa tion on the Altai Mountains. At first I thought of in cluding the whole of the year's experience and thought and impressions of my Central Asian journey in one book with my pictures and thoughts of the war. But I have put aside the earlier matter, as hardly relevant to the immediate question of how the war is affecting Russia and how Russia stands in relation to the nations she pro teets and to the world in general. Some time later I h0pe to return to the Altai village and resume my wanderings where I left off, and, when I have crossed Siberia, may perhaps present a personal impression of the Russian Empire.
