RAILWAY ISSUE OF CENTRAL ASIA AND MINOR ASIA
Abstract
The article that follows is reproduced from the journal Railway Affairs of 1900. The unknown author of the article written in the period of intensive construction of railways in Central Asia desired to show the prehistory of the topic and made a review of a work «Asien: seine Zukunftsbahnen und Kohlenschätze» written by Christian Gottlieb Ferdinand Ritter von Hochstetter (April 30, 1829 – July 18, 1884), a prominent German geologist and published in Wien in 1876, concerning the issues of construction of railways in the regions of Central Asia and Asia Minor.
