Sinopsis

Excerpt from Asia: With Ethnological Appendix

In the general arrangement of the chapters and Of the heads in each chapter, I have taken a more particular part. It is hoped that clearness and facility of reference will result from the pains which have been bestowed on this arrangement. As Asia contains many diverse nations and countries, simplicity and uniformity of arrangement become peculiarly important. The aim has been to pre sent the same kind of information for each of these many nations and countries, arranged under the same heads. Hereby the student will find his studies easier than they would otherwise be, and will be enabled to compare readily the state of the several nations and countries under their different forms of civilisation. He will also have the means of immediately measuring the stage which the available information regarding them has reached under their various types of administration.

Excerpt from Asia: With Ethnological Appendix

But when the task of adapting the foreign work, regarding Asia, to the requirements of English readers was undertaken, it was found necessary to enlarge the treatment of the whole subject, and to rearrange the topics comprised therein. This was found to involve the composing of a new book, recasting the contents of Hell wald's work, for which due acknowledgment is made but including also much additional matter as the result of recent research, and bringing the information up to the latest dates.
