Excerpt from The Truce in the East and Its Aftermath: Being the Sequel to the Re-Shaping of the Far East
The time has now come when a further estimate of the actual conditions obtaining in the Far East seems desirable. In a former volume, The Reshaping of the Far East, an effort was made to present in readable form a detailed account of things as they then existed in further Asia, and also to show what might be expected to occur in the immediate future. Yet although upwards of a thousand pages were devoted to that analysis, the sudden conclusion of the Portsmouth Treaty and the state of affairs created by the new Anglo-Japanese Alliance render a sequel not only advisable, but highly necessary.
In the pages which follow, many questions are dealt with faithfully and in a manner which may occasion pain to those who have come to the conclusion that the Far Eastern problem is at last as good as settled.
