Excerpt from The New Era in Russia The following criticisms have already been received on this work, and we ask that you give it a careful reading and do what you can to give it a wide circulation. My Dear Sir: I did not acknowledge the receipt of your book, "A New Era in Russia," until I was able, in the hurry of the session, to read it, which I have done with great pleasure and satisfaction. I confess that your book gives me new ideas upon the subject, and presents the question of banishment to Siberia in a very different light from what I had gathered from other sources. Dear Sir: Please accept my thanks for the copy of "The New Era in Russia" which you sent me. I have read your book with a great deal of interest and pleasure. I have been in Russia during the past twelve years several times. I have met many prominent men, and discussed with them the political position of Russia in relation to her own people and outside nations and people. I thank you again for the copy of your book, which will serve the people of this country and Russia well. I beg to say that I believe and have faith in Russia and her people.

Excerpt from The New Russia Russia is just at present on the eve of the most momentous period of its history. Within the last year we have already witnessed the prologue of the great drama which is about to be played. TO those who are not intimately acquainted with Russia and her people, this prologue must have appeared incoherent and almost impossible to under stand, for the best of reasons, that the actors did not know themselves the meaning of the parts which they were acting. It was a case of irresponsible followers rushing behind incoherent leaders. The truth is that the Russians had suddenly awakened out Of the most ghastly nightmare, and, still dazed and only half awake, the nightmare still vivid in their minds, they had but one thought - to rush madly headlong, in order to escape from its horrors. They rushed about, anywhere, anyhow, not caring where they went so long as they ran. In the same way does a patient, suffering from cardiac distress, rush about the room to try and escape from the agony which he endures.

Excerpt from Undiscovered Russia We have to tolerate and understand this new nation which is growing daily more articulate. Then, as the boundary lines become fainter on continental maps and the era of cosmopolitanism dawns, we may ask ourselves as Europeans rather than as Englishmen Who are our brothers living away to the East, making food for us; what are they to us, and what is their contribution to the whole.

Excerpt from The Red Reign: The True Story of an Adventurous Year in Russia Importance of movement called Russian revolution - Its varied as peets - Inevitableness of revolution in Russia - Causes - The dis ease Of autocracy - Insincerity of manifesto of October, 1905, seen in gradual withdrawal of constitutional rights then guaran teed - Elements of disintegration in Russian state - Ninety per cent. Of Russian people now oppose existing regime - Startling record of kibed and wounded in 1906 - Compared to French Ter ror - Length of Russian struggle compared to other revolutions in history - Author's qualifications for present undertaking Varied experience among Cossacks, terrorists and peasants. The Russian revolution is one of the vital issues of the world today. The political revolt, presenting, as it does, so many unique and dramatic developments, tends to distract the attention of the world from the broader, deeper, and certainly not less important, phases of the movement which are found in the social and eco nomic upheaval. The working out of these forces political, social, economic - in one stupendous move ment, constitutes one of the great revolutions of history. Revolution implies absolute change. Thether civil war, or intense parliamentary struggle, or both, is the method of accomplishment, is of small consequence. The ulti mate outcome is the Same. The present movement of the Russian people toward a changed condition of life is but the manifestation of underlying forces of history and destiny to which all nations must yield. Revolution in Russia during the first quarter of the twentieth century is as inevitable as the bursting of a Pelee or a Vesuvius.

Written just after the end of the Russo-Japanese war of 1904, this masterful history of Russia from its earliest times captures the spirit and essence of the creation of Tsarist Russia. Written by a visiting American scholar, this book is unique in that it spelled out precisely the racial reasons for much of Russia's turmoil, from the brutal invasion by the Huns to the centuries' long occupation by the Khanate in the south. Starting with the earliest known historical inhabitants-the Scythians-this work moves through each phase of Russian history, encompassing the arrival of the Indo-European Slavs, the Viking Rus, the creation of the great capital cities of Kiev and Moscow, the emergence of the Tsars-and the terrible effects of the Asiatic invasions. The author correctly predicts the downfall of the Tsarist system, blaming the baneful influence of Asiatics, and concludes: "No one knows what the morrow will bring, either to us or to the Slav. Yet it seems absurd to suppose that, after the lessons of corruption and incompetence of the present government, the educated Russians will remain quiescent while the great empire continues on its downward course. "Mediaevalism has come into contact with the spirit of the twentieth century, and has been found wanting. It seems as if the dawn of a new era for Russia is at hand."

Excerpt from The Russian Revolution The Russian Revolution has interested the whole world in Russia and the Russian people. The peoples of the West are uneasy about the Communist experiment, accompanied as it is by a forced implanting of atheism such as the world has never yet known - an experiment carried on in a vast country which is little known to, and little understood by, the West. What must be of great interest is the psycholo gical problem How was it possible for Holy Russia to be turned into an arsenal of militant atheism? How is it that a people who are religious by their very structure and live exclu sively by faith have proved to be such a fruitful field for anti-religious propaganda To explain that, to understand Russian anti-religious psy chology, one must have an insight into the religious psychology of the Russian people.

Excerpt from Russia Under Alexander III: And in the Preceding Period The amount of information circulating among the English about the phenomena of Russian life is so sparse and so out of proportion to the increasing interest in the subject, that every new book concerning Russia should call forth special attention from the English public, especially if it gives information which cannot be derived from any other source. And so it is, undoubtedly, with the present volume. Characters - both official and unofficial - of the most different types, positions, and activity, pass before the reader in vivid pictures.

Excerpt from Russia's New Era: Being Notes, Impressions and Experiences Personal, Political, Commercial and Financial of an Extended Tour in the Empire of the Tsar, With Statistical Tables, Portraits, Snapshots and Other Illustrations Great misapprehension and many mistaken notions have prevailed in this country of Russia and her people. But now King Edward and the Tsar have met: England and Russia have fraternised. The mists of prejudice are clearing off and old estrangement seems an evil dream. Misunderstandings in the past were largely due to ignorance - to fanciful suspicions and to mutual distrust. Yet Englishmen long resident in Russia have told that nowhere else in Europe are our countrymen so sure of hospitable treatment and of personal esteem. Nor have those well-informed witnesses been backward in acknowledging their admiration of the Russian's fine qualities, or faltered in their confidence that Russia will justify in time the highest expectations of her friends. Whilst the misunderstandings spoken of endured, Russia was certainly the victim of misrepresentation - mainly on political grounds - by certain journals in this country. Any suggestions that Russia affords promising openings for the investment of English capital would have been scouted in some quarters as either ridiculous or most objectionable. Yet it is certain that English enterprise might be worse and less profitably employed than in some of the numerous openings which it is one object of this book to point out as existing in the land of the Tsar.
