Mission to Tashkent (first published 1946) is one of the great classics of British espionage and Central Asian travel literature?an extraordinary true account by Lt?Col Frederick Marshman Bailey, an officer of the Indian Political Service whose life reads like a Kipling tale sharpened by the realities of the Great Game. The story unfolds in 1918-1919, during the chaos following the Russian Revolution. British India feared that Bolshevik influence might sweep south through Central Asia and destabilise the frontier. Bailey was sent on a covert mission to Tashkent to assess the situation and counter Bolshevik agents. This was not a gentleman?spy escapade. It was a world of shifting loyalties, collapsing empires, secret police, forged papers, tribal politics and the constant threat of execution. The book is written in Bailey's own crisp, unadorned voice?dryly humorous, observant, and remarkably calm given the circumstances. Bailey's tone is never melodramatic; he reports danger with the understatement of a man describing a mildly inconvenient train delay. That contrast is part of the book's charm. Ref WW 4.
