Book Description
Excerpt from Calmuc Tartary, or a Journey From Sarepta to Several Calmuc Hordes of the Astracan Government: From May 26 to August 21, 1823; Undertaken, on Behalf of the Russian Bible Society Great Mogul was divided between his two brothers. Hulaku governed Persia, and Koblai ruled from 1259 to 1294, as Lord of the Kaptschek, or Mo gul Empire, extending from Tonkin and Cochin China, on the eastern coast, over China and Mon golia to Siberia, and from thence to Persia. Dif fereat Mogul tribes, with their respective princes, were attached as vassals to the Great Mogul; Sorta, on the Volga, (for instance) and others. The capital was Pekin, in China. This empire flourished through the whole of the thirteenth, and part of the fourteenth century. This was the golden age of the Moguls, in every respect; for, under koblai-khan, the nation imbibed, from its dependants and neighbours, its first tinge of civi lization by literature and religion. This was de rived especially from Thibet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Winner of The 2018 Saidi-Sirjani Book Award In The Western Christian Presence in the Russias and Qājār Persia, c.1760–c.1870, Thomas O'Flynn vividly paints the life and times of missionary enterprises in early nineteenth-century Russia and Persia at a moment of immense change when Tsarist Russia embarked on an expansionist campaign reaching to the Caucasus. Simultaneously he charts the relationship between the new Persian dynasty of the Qājārs and missionary activity on the part of European and American missionaries. This book reconstructs that world from a predominantly religious perspective. It recounts the sustaining ideals as well as the everyday struggles of the western missionaries, Protestant (Scottish, Basel and American Congregationalist) and Catholic (Jesuit and Vincentian). It looks at the reactions of diverse tribal peoples, the Tatars of the North Caucasus, the Kabardians and Circassians. Persia was the ultimate goal of these missionaries, which they eventually reached in the 1820s. Altogether this study throws light on the troubled course of history in West Asia and provides the background to politico-religious conflicts in Chechnya and Persia that persist to the present day.
