"Eurasian
Crossroads
is
a
superbly
written
history
of
a
region
little
known
to
American
readers.
James
Millward
introduces
many
fascinating,
diverse
actors
into
the
story
of
Xinjiang
and
makes
excellent
use
of
existing
monographs
and
primary
source
material.
There
is
no
comparable
study
in
the
field."

"Eurasian
Crossroads
is
a
highly
readable
history
of
this
vast
and
crucial
region,
where
China's
high-speed
development
drive
collides
with
the
aspirations
of
Muslim
communities
for
national
identity
and
cultural
preservation.
James
Millward
skillfully
weaves
all
the
different
strands
of
Xinjiang's
complex
history
into
the
colorful
tapestry
of
his
book,
which
is
set
to
become
the
definitive
reference
on
Xinjiang
for
laymen
and
scholars
alike."
