Présentation de l'éditeur

Central A sia, extending from the The name Northern Ocean to the confines of Persia, India and China, and from the Gulf to the Turkish of Corea to the shores of the Caspian, have received from the nations of Europe the undistinguishing name of Tartarsa. This appellation, unknown to most of the people to whom it is applied, is a corruption of the Oriental J3S Tatar, the designation of a tribe derived, according to A bulghazi and other Mohammedan authors, from a prince of that name, who, with his brother Mongol, was descended from the race of Turk.
