Zusammenfassung

This is the first work to address the whole span - chronologically and thematically - of the development of Siberia and its role in both a Russian and global context. It is also the first work to present history from the view of Siberians themselves. Beautifully written, this book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in Russia and Siberia.

Russia's Frozen Frontier Zusammenfassung

Russia's Frozen Frontier: A History of Siberia and the Russian Far East 1581 - 1991 Dr. Alan Wood

Alan Wood's ambitious work is the first to address the whole span - both chronologically and thematically - of the development of Siberia, and its role in both the Russian and the global context.

With a scope that reaches from Muscovy's conquest of Siberia in the 16th and 17th centuries to modern times, it explores the effects of colonial exploitation, the Revolutions of 1917 and developments during the Soviet period. Russia's Frozen Frontier is also the first book to detail the history of Siberia from the view of Siberians themselves - both Russian and native - rather than seen through the lens of Moscow or St Petersburg.

Russia's Frozen Frontier Bewertungen

'Alan is one of those rare scholars who combines serious scholarship with a fabulous sense of humor and a brilliant, animated prose.' * Victor Mote, University of Houston *
'Professor Wood has done a great service in providing a concise history of one of the most significant regions of Russia...The book is thoroughly researched, beautifully written, and full of fascinating vignettes.' * Jeremy Smith, University of Eastern Finland *
'The book is a fascinating and accessible study of a relatively unknown subject. I found the work gripping...my impression is that this will become a standard work on the subject.' * Richard Sakwa, University of Kent *
Alan Wood is a legendary figure of the western branch of Siberian studies . . . [His] prose is brilliant. The book is easy to read, interesting and full of humour. -- Ivan R. Sokolovskii, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences * Europe-Asia Studies *
