Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Russian Empire of to-Day and Yesterday, 1913: The Country and Its Peoples, Together With a Brief Review of Its History, Past and Present, and a Survey of Its Social, Political and Economic Conditions The Russian Empire has long occupied a prominent place among the great countries of the world, but, although one of the most interesting of foreign lands, it has been but little visited by the great army of American tourists and travellers who annually cross the Atlantic. For that reason it is the least known of all the countries of Europe, although occupying an area nearly twice as large as all the other European nations together. Because of this general ignorance Russia has been a most fertile field for a host of sensational writers, who have disseminated much false and absurd information about both country and people. It is a country in which the less scrupulous of journalists are peculiarly at home. A German writer has characterized Russia as "The Land of Riddles." The country of the Czar is also frequently spoken of as the Sphinx, when reference is made to her diplomacy. It is indeed a difficult country to understand, because of the numerous diverse elements which enter into her political composition, and the diplomacy of Russia has caused many a nightmare for the statesmen of the rest of Europe. There is now, and has always been, a strong opposition on the part of the government to all publicity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Russian Empire of to-Day and Yesterday, 1913: The Country and Its Peoples, Together With a Brief Review of Its History, Past and Present, and a Survey of Its Social, Political and Economic Conditions It has been the aim of the author to trace the growth of Russia, and show how Moscow, one of the smallest of the principalities, or appanages of mediaeval times, gradually became dominant and extended its sovereignty over the whole of what is now the Russian Empire; to show how the Muscovites, once the least important of the Slav tribes, acquired ascendancy and overcame all rivals, including their far more powerful Slavonic neigh bour, Poland. It is a startling story, full of surprises and dramatic incidents, the like of which can be scarcely duplicated in the history of any other nation of'europe. With the exception of a study of Russian history, the author had read very little descriptive of Russia before his own travels throughout the Empire. He wished to form his own opinions at first hand, rather than visit the country with impressions previously formed. The read ing of a book descriptive of a country by a vigorous writer is sure to leave permanent impressions, which will colour the reader's opinion, and the better the book is written the stronger will be such effect. Since returning from his travels, however, which included a visit to every important section in European Russia, and some unusual opportunities for investigation, the author has read prac tically every book of consequence that has appeared in English upon that Empire. It would be impossible to give credit to every writer whose work has proved helpful in the preparation of this volume, but a list of those books will be found in the Bibliography in the Appendix. Many writers have given us travel sketches which have been the result of casual observation and a superficial study of the country, and these works will either be found extremely laudatory or else filled with aberrant criticism. They are either intense admirers or inconsiderate detractors of Russia and things Russian. It has been the aim of the author in the ensuing pages to give the Russian due credit for his good qualities, and at the same time not to Spare comment where criticism is due. Nothing has been ih cluded for the purpose of sensationalism; nor, on the other hand, has anything been omitted for fear it might offend Russian sensibilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Russian Empire: Its Resources, Government, and Policy The results already attained in the progress of our war, and the sure promise of the future, justify its in believing, that one purpose of G od in permitting this rebellion, was to draw the attention of the nations to the free institutions of the North, and then, by putting them to the severest possible proof, show their excellence unto the people of every land, and thus advance the general cause of human freedom. It has been proved that a popular Government is not necessarily a weak one, and that a free, unwarlike people, unused to the restraints of thorough organization and discipline, can yet assume almost at once the highest forms of national life, can reshape, without confusion, their whole industrial energy to meet the demands of sudden war, can bring forth and organize, and hold in hand all their resources* and with all the skill and science of the age, can wield a thoroughly compacted national strength, greater in proportion to population than has been exhibited by any other power of earth. The people of the whole civilized world are studying with intense interest the events which are passing here, and the prominent friends of freedom in Europe declare that we are fighting here the great battle of universal humanity.
