The first Russian translation of a book by Joseph Antonovich Castagne (1875–1958), a specialist in archaeology and the history of the Orenburg region and Central Asia.
Written in the wake of the events of the early years of the establishment of Soviet power (1917–1924), the author provides a comprehensive account of the military liberation and religious movements of the populations of the Central Asian republics, reveals the external factors influencing this movement, and details the steps taken by the Soviet government to establish statehood in the region.
Prepared for the 100th anniversary of the first publication in Paris, the author's 150th birthday, and the 180th anniversary of the Russian Geographical Society, this reprint edition features a parallel Russian translation and is supplemented with an extensive biographical essay on Castagne and archival illustrations.
