A History of the Peoples of Siberia: Russia's North Asian Colony 1581–1990

Autor James Forsyth
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 sep 1994
Forsyth's book greatly contributes to the material available to those seeking to form a general framework for the understanding of European imperialism and its long-term effects. It also contains many insights for those trying to understand events unfolding in the former USSR today. If the Russian People are to succeed in their endeavor to build a post-imperial state, they will have to face up to their past. This book makes an important contribution to that end.

Recenzii

'James Forsyth's work … is very timely. Just when the world is becoming aware of Siberia's peoples, we are presented with a compendium of information relating to them. The scope is vast.' The Historical Association Journal
'… (an) extremely useful, introduction to a subject that, as Russia's centre of gravity shifts east, will become very important.' Norman Stone, Aberdeen University Review
'Forsyth's book is imperative for anyone interested in Russian or world history, and would appeal to specialists and non-specialists alike.' Canadian-American Slavic Studies
'In this ambitious synthetic effort Forsyth has drawn together an impressive array of material hitherto unavailable in English … While Forsyth's narrative and interpretation are unparalleled in English, the illustrations, detailed table of contents, and comprehensive index and bibliography alone make the work an essential reference for Siberian history.' Nationalities Papers
'… this book is a considerable achievement and is essential reading for everyone interested in Siberia.' Scottish Slavonic Review
'… this is a highly commendable work.' Slavonic Review
