Vambery, Arminius. Western culture in eastern lands: a comparison of the methods adopted by England and Russia in the Middle East. *$3.50. Dutton.
6–25742.
Descriptive note in Annual, 1906.
“However frequently one may be disposed to take issue with Prof. Vambéry in his assumptions and conclusions, the scholarly merits of his work must be recognized at every turn. He occasionally falls into a panegyrical strain which is ill advised.... But these lapses are not frequent, and they probably flow from the author’s vivacity of style rather than from any inherent faults in his thought.” Frederic Austin Ogg.
