About this book

As war over the Ottoman Empire loomed in 1854, this pamphlet, credited on its title page to Thomas Carlyle, Esq., names three kinds of men the coming war preoccupies: the religious student expecting prophecy to unfold, the politician watching territory and influence shift, and the practical man weighing existing duties. It discusses Russia's quarrel with Turkey, the rival claims of France and Russia as protectors of the holy places, and the part it says the Pope played. Thomas Bosworth of Regent Street, London, published it.
