A History of the Peoples of Siberia: Russia's North Asian Colony 1581–1990 - Hardcover
This is the first ethnohistory of Siberia to appear in English, and presents to an anglophone audience a vast corpus of previously inaccessible ethnographic and linguistic material. It covers from the early history of Siberia after the Russian conquest to collectivization and conscription during World War II and to the 1980s movement ror native rights. In this, the first substantive "post-Glasnost" account to appear, James Forsyth compares the Siberian experience with that of Indians and Eskimos in North America.

Book Description:
Comparing the Siberian experience with that of Indians and Eskimos in North America, this first substantive "post-Glasnost" account covers the early history of Siberia after the Russian conquest to collectivization and conscription during World War II and the 1980s movement for native rights.
From the Back Cover:
Forsyth's book greatly contributes to the material available to those seeking to form a general framework for the understanding of European imperialism and its long-term effects. It also contains many insights for those trying to understand events unfolding in the former USSR today. If the Russian People are to succeed in their endeavor to build a post-imperial state, they will have to face up to their past. This book makes an important contribution to that end.
