Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Short Cut to India, the Record of a Journey, Along the Route of the Baghdad Railway
The journey recorded in this volume was under taken with the object of seeing the regions through which the Baghdad Railway is projected to run. Turkey in Asia is in itself interesting country, and offers abundant material to the traveller who con templates the perpetration of a book; while the fact that a railway to the Persian Gulf affords a short cut to India gives him something to write about of more than local interest.
