Add to basketSecond edition, the first published in 1873. Uncommon, WorldCat with just two locations of the first, LoC and BL, none for this second which appears to be more substantial with 44 pages as against the first's 29. Attractive propaganda piece recounting the story of the heroic Bokharan campaign for the troops. Following the Crimean War the Russian military had few major victories to celebrate, so accounts of the Central Asian expeditions were vital morale boosters. Inside the wrappers is a list of other "Educational Tools for the Troops" by Kol'devin, described as being "for creative teaching commands and corps schools" and including volumes on basic arithmetic, spelling and letter-writing. Wonderful cover illustration depicting a military magic lantern lecture. Octavo. Original pale yellowish-green pictorial wrappers. Wrappers just a little rubbed and dusty, corners mildly dog-eared, pale toning to the text, very good.
