''An Appeal To The British Nation In Behalf Of Colonel Stoddart And Captain Conolly: Now In Captivity In Bokhara'' is a historical book written by John Grover in 1843. The book is a plea to the British people to help secure the release of two British officers, Colonel Charles Stoddart and Captain Arthur Conolly, who were captured and held captive in Bokhara (present-day Uzbekistan) by the Emir of Bokhara. The book provides a detailed account of the events that led to the capture of Stoddart and Conolly, who were on a diplomatic mission to Bokhara to establish trade relations with the Emir. The book describes the harsh conditions of their imprisonment and the attempts made by the British government to secure their release. Grover’s work is an impassioned plea to the British public to support the cause of Stoddart and Conolly and to pressure the government to take stronger action to secure their release. The book also sheds light on the complex political and cultural dynamics of Central Asia during the 19th century. Overall, ''An Appeal To The British Nation In Behalf Of Colonel Stoddart And Captain Conolly: Now In Captivity In Bokhara'' is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the British Empire’s relationship with Central Asia during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
