Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Opium Question Solved is a book written by an Anglo-Indian author in 1882. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the opium trade in India and China during the 19th century. The author argues that the opium trade was a necessary evil for both countries, as it provided much-needed revenue for India and helped alleviate the trade imbalance between China and the West.The book delves into the history of opium use in China, tracing its origins back to the 7th century. It also explores the economic and political factors that led to the opium trade between India and China, including the British East India Company's monopoly on opium production and trade.The author presents a nuanced perspective on the opium trade, acknowledging the harmful effects of opium addiction while also highlighting its economic benefits. The book argues that the opium trade was not solely responsible for China's decline and that other factors such as corruption and inefficiency also played a role.Overall, The Opium Question Solved provides a fascinating insight into the complex history of the opium trade in India and China and offers a thought-provoking analysis of its impact on both countries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

According to Russell's entry in the Oxford DNB, while reporting on the Civil War, he was described by one American newspaper as 'the most famous newspaper correspondent the world has ever seen'. The inscription on his memorial in St Paul's Cathedral calls him ''the first and greatest of War Correspondents'. He coined the phrase 'thin red line', was instrumental in the sending of Florence Nightingale to the Crimea, and is said to have written the report that inspired Tennyson to write 'The Charge of the Light Brigade'. The recipient was the proprietor of the Hotel and Restaurant Henry IV, Saint-Germain-en-Laye (which, according to an advertisement in Galignani's 'New Paris Guide for 1879', was 'The only Hotel on the Terrace. / Highly recommended, and old-established / Louis XIV. was born in this House on the 5th Sept. 1638.'). The present item is 2pp, 12mo. In fair condition, aged and worn, with thin strip of glue from mount along the gutter. Folded twice. Signed 'W H Russell'. He enquires after 'un petit apartment libre pour le lundi ou mardi en cas de besoin', at a price 'convenable à ma fortune'. He describes the specifications he requires before noting that M. de Blonetz ma dit ce que j'ai entendu avec plaisir que vous avez garde des souvenirs aimables de moi depuis cet temp terrible 70. 71'. In a postscript he expresses anxiety that 'il y aura une grande foule à St Germain le lundi pour les courses'. It may be that Russell attended the racing with the future King Edward VII: he was, as the Oxford DNB states, 'a member of the Prince of Wales's circle, though his relationship with the prince fluctuated, and he deplored the depravity and obscenity of some of his set'.

Manuscript / Paper Collectible
The 14 letters total 72pp. The collection is in good condition, lightly aged. Most items docketed and with the Society's stamp. The correspondence relates to Society business, from a strongly Anglo-Indian viewpoint. Letters of 26 May and 2 June 1913 are each 12pp. Long, and concern the relative merits of Indian colonial official Sir William Lee-Warner (1846-1914) and the geographer Sir Thomas Holdich (1843-1929), to be chairman of the Society. In the first he tells Wood that he had previously 'begged' his assistant Menzies to let him know 'that if it was the turn of an Anglo-Indian to be chairman of the Society that Anglo-Indian was Sir W. Lee Warner. Yesterday to my I heard that Sir Thos. Holdich was talked of. Now no one admires Sir T. more than I do. [] But he is not of the type of Anglo-Indian to be made our chairman [] That Chairman must be of the ruling class of English Indian officials. - A Civilian or a military man, not only of ability & distinction but who has served in the highest administrative offices civil & political [] Such men, for instance as Sir Bartle Frere Sir Alfred Lyall Sir Stewart Bayley & Sir W. Lee-Warner Of all these none has more impressed Indian imagination as Sir W. L-W - &B none been better known here except Sir Bartle Frere'. He criticises Holdich for his lack of experience, giving his opinion that 'he wd be as great a failure for the Soc: as Sir Charles Lamb who was a ghastly failure the sickening taste of which it has taken 2 years of Lord Sanderson to clear out of my mouth.' He continues in like tone: 'If anybody is to suffer through the fiasco let it be Sir Thomas & not the Society so far as its Indian interests are concerned. It is a case of Pallas the Untender Hearted to exert herself in our hearts.' On 2 June 1913 he writes to Wood again at length on the matter, claiming to have always opposed overweighting the Council with Anglo-Indians. I think 3 Sir S. Bayley, Sir W. L-W. & I, are quite enough: & chiefly because all of us are of one mind in realising that you are the corner stone, & real head stone also, of the Society, & that its whole success depends on supporting you through thick & thin. With you & Menzies after you in the office as Secretary is all my pleasure in the Society for the present - & hope for the future.' Later in 1913 he writes concerning a letter he has published in the Society's journal, 'on the iniquity of England robbing India of £90,000 a year paid India by China without compensating India a single "dam" (not "damn")'.

Large painting on board signed 'Punir Shabab Bombay' (signed in lower left-hand corner), gouache on thick board, depicting an elegantly robed gentleman seated on an open terrace, with a moon-lit countryside and winding river in the background with stars illuminating the sky, 600 x 440 mm; some light water-staining and a small section of the top-left corner chipped with loss, rubbed and darkened (as often); reverse blank, in modern frame, glazed. misc23 A very attractive and large portrait of a Governor of Bombay, possibly of Parsi heritage, apparently executed by a local Indian artist. The large verandah on which the subject is seated features some classical western architectural features, including the column and balcony railing. These features paired with the silk embroidered robes and multiple strands of beaded jewellery of the subject signify that the sitter was of high rank and likely governor of the region and land that is disproportionately seen behind him as a vast and luscious landscape. The scene is rather unusually set at night-time with the light of the moon and stars shining against a darkened sky to create a very atmospheric and captivating image.
