About the book >.>.> German hawks dreamed of driving the British out of India and creating a vast new Teutonic empire in the East using their Turkish ally as a springboard. At the same time Turkey’s leaders aimed to free the Muslim peoples of Central Asia from the Tsarist yoke – and rule them themselves as part of a new Ottoman empire. The shadowy and often bloody struggle which followed was fought out between the intelligence services of King Kaiser Sultan and Tsar. It was to spill over into Persia Afghanistan the Caucasus and Central Asia and be felt as far afield as the United States and China. It was around this colossal conspiracy that John Buchan wove his immortal spy story Greenmantle.
