Abstract
THE resolution of the problems which are involved in the physical aspects of Western Turkestan, and which have offered so ample a scope for speculation, will probably be one of the earliest and most important consequences of the occupation of the banks of the Amú Darya by Russia. But, whatever may be the light which will thus be afforded to geographers, ethnologists, or historians, it is to be expected that the field of inquiry will widen and recede, in proportion as each step forward is made, along paths which have hitherto been shrouded in obscurity.
