The Great Game 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 著者简介

Peter Hopkirk has travelled widely over many years in the regions where his six books are set --- Central Asia, the Caucasus, China, India and Pakistan, Iran and Eastern Turkey. Before turning full-time author, he was an ITN reporter and newscaster for two years, the New York correspondent of the old Daily Express, and worked for nearly twenty years on The Times; five as its chief reporter, and latterly as Middle and Far East specialist. In the 1950s he edited the West African news magazine Drum, sister paper to its legendary South African namesake. Before entering Fleet Street he served as a subaltern in the King's African Rifles --- in the same battalion as Lance Corporal Idi Amin, later to emerge as the Ugandan tyrant. No stranger to misadventure, Hopkirk has twice been held in secret-police cells --- in Cuba and the Middle East --- and also been hijacked by Arab terrorists. His works have been translated into fourteen languages. In 1999 he was awarded the Sir Percy Sykes Memorial Medal for his writing and travels by the Royal Society for Asian Affairs.

评分

......将近一个世纪的时间里,世界两大强权——维多利亚英国和沙皇俄国——在中亚寂寥的隘口和沙漠展开了一场秘密战。那些战斗和阴谋的亲历者们把这场秘密战称为"大棋局"(the great game),这个词经由kipling的经典小说"Kim"而在当时广为人知。在19世纪初,这场大戏刚刚开场...

按以前的阅读速度和习惯,本来是应该一口气读完的。无奈分心的事情太多,于是拖了不少天数。 本来想打五星,考虑到是英国人写的,用的英国人的视角以及代表的利益,尽管已经非常客观,还是扣掉一星。 三观正,不管是涉及到新疆还是西藏的部分,表示,历史上从来都是中华帝国的...

正如书中所说:他们对自己的事业笃信不疑,在那个时代都怀有极高的帝国荣誉感、问心无愧的爱国主义精神和坚定不渝的基督教文明优越感。19世纪的欧洲人,看待中亚地区应该是残暴的可汗,野蛮的村民,没有纳入文明世界的范围,被占领那是必须的。 书中讲述了19世纪英俄两国围绕...

小时候看《新闻联播》时常常会听到比如“高加索”“克什米尔”等等和各种分不太清楚的叫“斯坦”的国家们,这些听着耳熟能详但其实到现在依旧不甚了了。之前并没有读过相关题材的书,所以暂时说不上这本书写得算不算好,在书的前面很多章大部分都是这么开头的——一个精神熠熠...

The Great Game 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

For nearly a century the two most powerful nations on earth - Victorian Britain and Tsarist Russia - fought a secret war in the lonely passes and deserts of Central Asia. Those engaged in this shadowy struggle called it 'The Great Game', a phrase immortalized in Kipling's Kim.

When play first began the two rival empires lay nearly 2,000 miles apart. By the end, some Russian outposts were within 20 miles of India.

This classic book tells the story of the Great Game through the exploits of the young officers, both British and Russian, who risked their lives playing it. Disguised as holy men or native horse-traders, they mapped secret passes, gathered intelligence and sought the allegiance of powerful khans. Some never returned. The violent repercussions of the Great Game are still convulsing Central Asia today.

书是好书,佩服作者吊人胃口的能力,但多余的话也是有点多,而且不看作者都知道是个英国人也写的。
