And so it would be at once impossible ... Read more

  • China

    by Demetrius Charles Boulger ...
    As China has now fairly taken her place in the family of nations, it is unnecessary to elaborate an argument in support of even the humblest attempt to elucidate her history. It is a subject to which we can no longer remain indifferent, because circumstances are bringing every day more clearly into view the important part China must play in the changes that have become imminent in Asia, and that ...

  • A Short History of Russia

    by Mary Platt Parmele ...
    If this book seems to have departed from the proper ideal of historic narrative—if it is the history of a Power, and not of a People—it is because the Russian people have had no history yet. There has been no evolution of a Russian nation, but only of a vast governing system; and the words “Russian Empire” stand for a majestic world-power in which the mass of its people have no part. A splendidly ... Read more
