The Eastern Question Tackled And Satisfactorily Disposed Of By Ally Sloper is a satirical book written by Charles Henry Ross in 1877. The book is a humorous take on the complex issue of the Eastern Question, which referred to the political and territorial disputes in the Balkans and the Ottoman Empire during the 19th century. The protagonist of the book is Ally Sloper, a fictional character who was a popular comic figure in Victorian England. Sloper is depicted as a bumbling, but well-meaning, hero who sets out to solve the Eastern Question. The book is full of witty commentary and caricatures of politicians and other public figures of the time.Ross uses humor to criticize the British government's handling of the Eastern Question, as well as the wider political and social issues of the day. The book also touches on themes such as imperialism, nationalism, and the role of the media in shaping public opinion.Overall, The Eastern Question Tackled And Satisfactorily Disposed Of By Ally Sloper is a satirical and entertaining look at a complex historical issue, and a reflection of the cultural and political climate of Victorian England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
