Excerpt from Russian Projects Against India

As soon as the Settlement of Vienna in 1814 and 1815 left Russia free to divert her attention once more from European affairs and to direct it towards Central Asia, expeditions were at once equipped for service in the Steppes. Diplomatic missions, too.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book unravels the geopolitical maneuverings of Russian powers against India from the era of Peter the Great through to the reign of Nicholas II. The author presents a chronological account of the expeditions, missions, and diplomatic efforts undertaken by Russian monarchs and statesmen to gain influence in Central Asia and threaten British rule in the Indian subcontinent. The book draws extensively from the writings of Robert Michell, an expert on Russian relations with Central Asia, to shed light on the complex motivations and strategies behind these imperial ambitions. The author explores the enduring belief among Russian elites that control over Khiva and Bokhara was key to challenging British supremacy in India. The book also illuminates the broader historical context of the "Great Game," the intense rivalry between Russia and Britain for control of Central Asia, which had profound implications for the geopolitical landscape of the region.
