The Russian Far East: A History

About this book

Wedged between China Korea Japan and the United States the Russian Far East has for centuries been a meeting ground for Eurasian and American peoples and cultures. Conventionally regarded as a perimeter it is in fact a collage of overlapping borderlands with a distinct historical identity. Based on a quarter-century of research by a leading authority on the area this is a monumental survey of Pacific Siberia from prehistoric times to the present.
