Excerpt from Outposts of Asia In writing this book of a journey through Manchuria, Korea and Japan, it is partly a tribute to the hospitality of the Imperial Railway through whose kindness I made the picturesque tour on the track of the fighting line across coun tries ou which so much attention has been focused in these last years, partly to fulfill a pledge made to the Manila Merchants Association, to write in a book of travel through Russia a chapter on Manila, which chapter is the last in the volume. Among the few treasures which the traveler feels he must carry away from that land of art - Japan - the writer chose a kakemono representing the grim old fighter Ieyasu dressed in his stitf brocade of choice pattern which the elegance of his life demanded. He sits not on horse, nor in palanquin, but at ease and in re ective mood in his home, his queer head-dress arching out from his falcon-like head, holding in one hand a sword even in this hour of leisure, ready to spring upon his coun try's foes, in the other hand a roll of paper, for he was like the great Charlemagne, a man of letters, as well as of battles.

Excerpt from England and Russia in Asia The subject is certainly one of more than incidental or passing interest. It is well-nigh certain to reappear again and again, until the issue is decided by the final arbitrament of arms. There is an irrepressible conflict between England and Russia for commercial and military supremacy in Central and Western Asia; and all the world looks to see it go on until one of these powers decisively triumphs over the other.

Excerpt from The Coming Struggle in Eastern Asia With the publication of the present volume is brought to an end the author's series of political treatises dealing with the Far East from the point of view that Russo-Japanese rivalry has been the mainspring of the events of recent years. In Manchu and Muscovite, written in the year 1903, some of the results of the Russian occupation of Manchuria were described, and the apparent policy of Japan warmly approved. In the second work, The Re-Shaping of the Far East, written after the lapse of eighteen months of stirring and historic happenings, a broader estimate was attempted and the position of affairs in China, Japan and Korea, as well as in Manchuria, was detailed at some length. On this occasion the writer was compelled to qualify his former approval of the policy of Japan, and to point out that in Korea at least she had been a grievous disappointment.

Excerpt from Observations in Asia Anything that we can learn about Asia is worthy of attention, for Japan and China are, in many ways, to be the problems of the United States. Ten years ago Gover nor Brady, of Alaska, remarked to me that the Pacific would be the Mediterranean of the twentieth century. In San Francisco, at a dinner given to Bishop Potter, our hosts Iaughingly assured us that we were now at the front door of America; that New York was merely the back door. If many Amer icans hold these opinions, then, any careful contribution to our knowledge of Asia, how ever slight, needs no excuse.

Excerpt from Howrah The deep channel alternates from left to right and vice cersa according to the windings of the river, except where deflected by the large tributaries which debouch into it at the southern limit of this district. Proceeding from Howrah Bridge, the deep channel runs on the Calcutta side in the Calcutta Reach past the Fort and Kidderpore to Garden Reach. At Rajganj, Opposite Hangman Point, it crosses over to the Howrah Side, and follows the Sankrail Reach as far as Melancholy (menikhali) Point. It then zigzags from left to right at each bend.

The New York Times bestselling author of Krakatoa and The Professor and the Madman takes readers on a quirky and charming tour of the last outpost of the British empire Outposts is Simon Winchester’s journey to find the vanishing empire, “on which the sun never sets.” In the course of a three-year, 100,000 mile journey—from the chill of the Antarctic to the blue seas of the Caribbean, from the South of Spain and the tip of China to the utterly remote specks in the middle of gale-swept oceans—he discovered such romance and depravity, opulence and despair tht he was inspired to write what may be the last contemporary account of the British empire. Written with Winchester’s captivating style and breadth, here are conversations and anecdotes, myths and political analysis, scenery and history—a poignant and colorful record of the lingering beat of what was once the heart of the civilized world.

This study of the origins of international law combines techniques of intellectual history and historiography to investigate the earliest developments of the law of nations. The book examines the sources, processes and doctrines of international legal obligation in antiquity to re-evaluate the critical attributes of international law. David J. Bederman focuses on three essential areas in which law influenced ancient state relations - diplomacy, treaty-making and warfare - in a detailed analysis of international relations in the Near East (2800–700 BCE), the Greek city-states (500–338 BCE) and Rome (358–168 BCE). Containing topical literature and archaeological evidence, this 2001 study does not merely catalogue instances of recognition by ancient states of these seminal features of international law: it accounts for recurrent patterns of thinking and practice. This comprehensive analysis of international law and state relations in ancient times provides a fascinating study for lawyers and academics, ancient historians and classicists alike.

First published in 2004. The six volumes that make up this set provide an overview of colonialism in South East Asia. The first volume deals with Portuguese, Spanish and Dutch Imperialism before 1800, the second with empire-building during the Nineteenth Century, and the third with the imperial heyday in the early Twentieth Century. The remaining volumes are devoted to the decline of empire, covering nationalism and the Japanese challenge to the Western presence in the region, and the transition to independence. The authors whose works are anthologised include both official participants, and scholars who wrote about events from a more detached perspective. Wherever possible, authors have been chosen who had first-hand experience in the region. Volume I incudes Imperialism in South East Asia before 1800.
