Description

Explore a fresh perspective on 19th-century history with The Small Players of the Great Game. While much has been written about the Anglo-Russian Great Game, this Routledge Islamic Studies Series volume shifts the focus to the Persian angle. It examines the territorial chessboard of the eastern and north-eastern parts of the waning Persian empire to understand how local players navigated these global tensions. This work investigates the specific territorial consequences of the Great Game for those living in the region. By looking at the settlement of Iran's eastern borderlands and the creation of Afghanistan, the book offers a unique approach to the era. It is an essential resource for anyone studying the history, geography, politics, and geopolitics of the modern age. This scholarly text provides a different viewpoint than traditional narratives, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Middle Eastern history.
