Publisher's Synopsis
Sir Henry Havelock On The Eastern Question is a book written by Henry Marshman Havelock and published in 1878. It is a collection of speeches and essays by the author, who was a British general and colonial administrator. The book discusses the Eastern Question, which refers to the political and territorial issues arising from the decline of the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century. Havelock argues that Britain should take a stronger stance in the region, and that the Ottoman Empire should be reformed rather than dismantled. He also discusses the role of Russia in the region, and the potential for conflict between Britain and Russia. The book provides insight into the political and military thinking of the time, and sheds light on the complex issues facing European powers in the Eastern Mediterranean. Overall, Sir Henry Havelock On The Eastern Question is a valuable historical document that provides a window into the political and military thinking of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
