Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Duab of Turkestan: A Physiographic Sketch and Account of Some Travels His book is an attempt at combining a record of exploration with the teaching of a little elementary physiography. Facts newly observed and theories of my own are also woven into the general description of a characteristic region. May the difficulties of the experiment in some measure reconcile the general reader, desirous of hearing something interesting or amusing, and the critical scholar in search of information. The style of the book sufficiently accounts for the omission of an incubus of footnotes and literary references. I have absorbed the writings of others, not quoted them. The bibliographical list at the end will, I hope, form the necessary acknowledgment of intellectual property. Scientific discussion has been reserved for the Appendix, where l have laid stress on the intricacies of many problems, also drawing attention to various questions to be cleared up by future travellers. The student of physical geography for whom this book has chiefly been written need not despair when faced by frequent doubts. Scepticism tempered with enthusiasm is the attitude of true science.

Download or read book The Duab of Turkestan written by Willi Rickmer Rickmers and published by Martino Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with that portion of Russian Turkestan lying between the Oxus and the Jaxartes rivers and including the two cities of Bokhara and Samarkand and a portion of the Pamirs. The author calls it a physiographic sketch and an account of some travels. There are 207 maps, diagrams and photographs. The half-tones are excellent, some of them are remarkable. Only in the perfectly clear atmosphere of the arid lands could such photographs be secured. The sketch maps and diagrams are very effective, unusually so. The author is modest and his narrative is not lumbered up with inane details such as travelers too often impose upon readers of their books.The author's delicate touches of humor, his picturesque language in description, his knowledge of. physiography and climatology, and his familiarity with the literature of his subject, all contribute materially to the excellence of the book. The descriptions of the peoplenomads, city dwellers of Bokhara and Samarkand, native officials, and mountain tribesare interesting reading and bespeak the keen observer and experienced traveler. Much attention is given to physiographic processes and features, but the splendid half tones tell the story better than words. The record of the peculiar action of the weathering agents and of the glaciers is a distinct contribution to physiographic science.In the appendix, the author enters into a discussion of a number of unsettled questions, such as, the number of glacial epochs represented by the morainic deposits in the Pamirs, the value of the evidences of supposed climatic changes in Turkestan in historic times, and the relation of forests to rainfall, but reaches no very definite conclusions.

This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-nineteenth century the eyes of western European explorers were firmly fixed on advancing inland from former maritime colonies in the Americas, Africa, the Indian sub-continent and Australasia, their motives often being inextricably bound up with concerns of imperial politics and commerce. Simultaneously, further east, Russians resumed their perceived mission to civilise Asia, following their own country’s humiliation during the Crimean War. From a springboard of Siberian territories acquired gradually over the previous three centuries, discovery and expansion radiated from the Imperial Russian Geographical Society, founded in 1845 and incorporating initiatives drawn from descendants of immigrant French and German scientists who themselves inspired a new generation of liberal intellectuals. A key personality in that movement was the Society’s librarian and secretary of its physical geography section, P. P. Semenov (1827-1914), a member of a minor gentry family who had been tutored by a pupil of Linnacus and who had studied under Ritter and von Humboldt at Berlin during a tour of Europe in 1853-4. From them he conceived the notion of travelling to the virtually unknown lands of Central Asia, ostensibly to verify opinions on the existence there of active volcanoes and glaciers. In reality his ambition was to penetrate beyond the Kazakh steppe and to reach the fabled Celestial Mountains, the Tian’-Shan’ range, which constituted the politically sensitive border between Russia and China and the equally hostile buffer zone of Muslim kahnates. Accompanied only by a serf servant, in May 1856 Semenov embarked on a 18-month journey from St Petersburg through Kazan’ to Semipalatinsk, and thence via the Altai to the newly established Russian settlement of Vernoe (later Alma-Ata, now Almaty). Subsequently he received a Cossack escort on his trek into the high plateaus and ridges surrounding Issyk-kul’, to ’the very heart of Asia’. Throughout his
