The Romance of the Secret Service Fund


Book Description

"I agree with you, Moore. We are almost ready to vouch for the integrity of Prince Boris of Contigua, and yet we know that Russia is using the Court and province to foment disaffection on the Indian frontier, and convey arms to the Mancunis. If this thing isn't stopped we shall be face to face with the most serious trouble in India before long. Signs are not wanting, too, that the Contigeans are being stirred up against Prince Boris. If there is a revolution, Russia has a fine excuse to step in and annex the province. And you know as well as I do what that would mean."




British Invasion and Spy Literature, 1871–1918


Book Description

This book examines British invasion and spy literature and the political, social, and cultural attitudes that it expresses. This form of literature began to appear towards the end of the nineteenth century and developed into a clearly recognised form during the Edwardian period (1901-1914). By looking at the origins and evolution of invasion literature, and to a lesser extent detective literature, up to the end of World War I, Danny Laurie-Fletcher utilises fiction as a window into the mind-set of British society. There is a focus on the political arguments embedded within the texts, which mirrored debates in wider British society that took place before and during World War I – debates about military conscription, immigration, spy scares, the fear of British imperial decline, and the rise of Germany. These debates and topics are examined to show what influence they had on the creation of the intelligence services, MI5 and MI6, and how foreigners were perceived in society.

Treatment of the diseases of the eye, by means of prussic acid vapour, and other medicinal agents


Book Description

"Treatment of the diseases of the eye" by Alexander Turnbull is an ophthalmology book about eye diseases and their cure with the help of hydrocyanic acid. Excerpt: "In submitting to the public the following interesting cases illustrative of the effects of my mode of treating diseases of the eye, I have prefixed to them the original communications transmitted by me to the Lancet and the Medical Gazette. My reason for so doing is this—I wish it to be seen by actual comparison, that in every instance the confidence I have expressed in the efficacy of these medicines has not been overrated; on the contrary, it will be seen that I have said less than the facts really warrant. I have also given the cases that are at present under my treatment, in order that all who take an interest in the subject may have ample opportunity of watching their progress, and forming, from their own observations, just conclusions. I have also added some important observations concerning the action of the essential oils on the eye, as exhibited both externally and internally"
