Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Horseback Through Asia Minor, Vol. 1 of 2 IT has been said that a man often writes his book first, his preface last. The author of this work is no exception to the general rule. These volumes contain an account of a journey on horseback through Asia Minor. I was five months in that country, and traversed a district extending over 2000 miles. My limited leave of absence prevented me from staying more than a few days at the important towns which lay on the route.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Ride to Khiva and on Horseback Through Asia Minor The account of the prohibitory order which I had seen published in the "Pall Mall Gazette" was, I had every reason to believe, correct; and should I not find, after crossing the Ural River, and entering Asia, that my long sleigh journey had been all to no purpose, and have to retrace my steps through European Russia? These were my first impressions on arriving in England; hut on talking the matter over with some Russians of my acquaintance, they assured me that I was entirely mistaken; that, on the contrary, the authorities at St. Petersburg would readily permit English officers to travel in Central Asia; and it was observed that (he order to which I had alluded referred only to merchants or people who tried to smuggle contraband goods into the recently annexed Khanates. A few months later I had the honor of making the acquaintance of his Excellency Count Schouvaloff, the Russian embassador in London, and formerly the head of the secret police at St. Peters burg. He was excessively kind, and promised to do what he could to further my plans, but in an answer to a straightforward question, as to whether I should bp permitted to travel in Russian Asia or not, his reply was, "My dear sir, that is a subject about which I can not give you any answer; but on arriving in St. Petersburg the authorities there will be able to afford you every possible information." It was a diplomatic answer - one which bound the count to nothing, and I went away charmed with the tact and affability or the Russian embassador. Apparently there was nothing to he learned officially from Russian sources; but unofficially, and one by one, many little bits of information crept out. I now first learned that General Milutin, the Minister of War at St. Petersburg, was personally very much opposed to the idea of an English officer traveling in Central Asia, particularly in that part which lies between the boundaries of British India and Russia. According to him, a Russian traveler, a Mr. Pachino, had not been well treated by the authorities in India, and this gentleman had not been permitted to enter Afghanistan; and, in consequence, General Milutin did not see why he should allow an Englishman to do what was denied to a Russian subject. Another peculiarity, which I remarked in several Russians whose acquaintance I at that time had the honor of making, it may here be not out of place to mention. This was their desire to impress upon my mind the great advantage it would be for England to have a civilized neighbor like Russia on her Indian frontier; and when I did not take the trouble to dissent from their views - for it is a waste of breath to argue with Russians about this question - how eager they were for me to impress their line of thought upon the circle of people with whom I was the more immediately connected. Of course, the arguments brought forward were based upon purely philanthropic motives, upon Christianity and civilization. They said that the two great powers ought to go together hand in glove; that there ought to be railways all through Asia formed by Anglo-Russian companies; that Russia and England had every sympathy in common which should unite them; that (hey both hated Germany and loved France; that England and Russia could conquer the world, and so on.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Burnaby (1842-85) was a Brirish Army intelligence officer whose adventurous spirit, pioneering achievements and swashbuckling courage earned him the affection of Victorian imperial idealists. As well as travelling on horseback across Europe and Central Asia, he mastered the art of ballooning, spoke a number of foreign languages fluently, stood for parliament twice and published several books. At six foot four and broad shouldered he was every inch the hero, and was admired and feted by the women of London's high society, whilst stories of his feats of derring-do won him widespread popularity amongst the masses. This account of his second trip across Asia Minor was first published in 1877. Volume 2 of 2, with two maps.
