South-East Persia, the history of which I propose to discuss very briefly, consists of the provinces of Kirmān and Persian Baluchistān, in which I have been travelling since 1893, and where I was commissioned to found a consulate in 1894. Before, however, approaching their history, it seems advisable to recapitulate the physical featuresof these desert provinces, which, aselsewhere, have mainly owed their history to their geographical conditions.
page 939 note 1 In my recently published work, “Ten Thousand Miles in Persia” (John Murray), two chapters are devoted to the history of the province of Kirmān and two to that of Persian Baluchistān. There is also a chapter which refers to the history of Sīstān, and throughout there are many historical notes.
