411, (3 ads) pages. "This volume of war correspondence and travel bridges forty years of personal wanderings and adventure." - from Introductory. The adventures described took place in many places around the world. Here are the author's thoughts after a time in China: "The Chinese are noted for their savage cruelty. I had several instances, but I will not jar my readers' feeling by going into details of the Chinaman's 'gentle art' of disposing of his captive enemies. China, too, is the land of corruption. Every man considers it his duty to cheat his neighbour. It is a cardinal article of Celestial life. The process is known as 'squeezing' and, beginning with the Emperor, it is prosecuted down step-by-step." - from page 224. Unmarked. Somewhat above-average wear to publisher's red cloth adorned with gilt lettering. Binding intact. Moderate spine slant. Backstrip all but loose. (Prior owner secured it with tape, now moved, leaving some tackiness.) A worthy vintage copy. Book

New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (30 x 22 cm). Edition in English. 343 p., b/w and color ills. Two coasts one sea III: Sections from Turkish-Russian common history. Translated by Natalia Kizilkaya. Two geographies both on Asia and Europe on the coasts of the Black Sea basin, Turkey and Russia. These two countries that are among the most important and strongest figures of the world area have strengthened their relations with rooted cultural, economic and social sharing besides the same lands in the past centuries. They shared the same fate and history of nearly 500 years in Eurasia that has housed several civilizations. Starting from Kiev Russia and Seljuk era, the history of these two geographies have reflected each other on the journey of each turning into strong empires such as Moscow Russia and the Ottoman Beylik and state structures respectively. Russia and Turkey weaved their similar fate of their joint past sometimes with war and sometimes with peace, alliance, aid and friendship... They underwent 12 great wars in depth but showed extraordinary solidarity as if to inspire the proverb "a neighbor is in need of another"; just like the in the war of Independence. The book "Two coasts and One Sea" gives the opportunity to analyze developments in culture, literature, arts and economy in the wide spectrum of history besides acting a unique historian that brings a perspective to our lives shaped in the same geographies. In other words, it accompanies the journey of Turkish-Russian relations from the Ottoman era to the Republic. This is third and the last volume.
