About this book

Yakoob Beg, the Athalik Ghazi, was a soldier of fortune who built an independent state in Kashgaria, in Central Asia, and held it for twelve years. Demetrius Charles Boulger, a member of the Royal Asiatic Society, wrote this life in 1878 from Sir Douglas Forsyth's official report and the Tashkent and Pekin Gazettes. He judges his subject able and brave but harsh, and uses the story to argue for China's strength as a ruling power in Eastern Turkestan. A map and an appendix come with it.
