KRAUSSE'S RUSSIA IN ASIA, 1558-1899
With appendix, index, and twelve maps. 8vo. $4.00.
_Boston Transcript_: "The most masterly marshaling of the British
arguments against Russia which has appeared in a long time.... The man
who wrote the book has had an inside view of Russian methods, or else he
is extremely clever in collecting detailed information about them. His
information is brought down to date, and his passages on the Manchurian
railway agreement show that he can see near things as vividly as far
things. His review of the present state of Russia's southern boundary in
Asia is striking, and sums up a great deal of history."
THOMPSON'S RUSSIAN POLITICS
By Herbert M. Thompson. An account of the relations of Russian

_Outlook_: "The result of careful study, compactly, clearly, and
effectively presented.... The author's aim is to stir the friends of
freedom throughout the world to a deeper interest in the cause of
Russian liberty. His work is vivified by the fact that his heart is in
it."
