Description:
This book delves into the Russian conquest of the Central Asian khanates of Bukhara and Khiva during the 1860s and 1870s, exploring Russia's evolving relationship with these territories until their eventual extinction as political entities in 1924. It charts Russia's shift from a non-interventionist stance—primarily motivated by preventing British expansion from India—to a more interventionist approach as trade and Russian settlement grew. The book also examines the role of Bukhara and Khiva during the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the fundamental changes brought about by the Bolshevik conquest in 1919-1920.
A re-issue of the classic work originally published in 1968, this updated version includes a new introduction, corrections of previous errors, and a survey of new research conducted since its first publication.
