Excerpt from A Handbook of Siberia and Arctic Russia, Vol. 1: General
The region covered in this Handbook includes besides Siberia proper, that part of European Russia, excluding Finland, which drains to the Arctic Ocean, and the northern part Of the Central Asian steppes. The administrative boundaries of Siberia against European Russia and the Steppe provinces have been ignored, except in certain statistical matter, because they follow arbitrary lines through some of the most densely populated parts Of Asiatic Russia.
The present volume deals with general matters. The two succeeding volumes deal in detail respectively with western Siberia, including Arctic Russia, and eastern Siberia.
Recent information about Siberia, even before the outbreak of war, was difficult to Obtain. Of the remoter parts little is known. The volumes are as complete as possible up to 1914 and a few changes since that date have been noted. NO attempt, however, has been made to give any account of the social, and political and economic conditions which are the outcome Of the Russian revolution Of 1917.
Russian statistics have never been very trustworthy. As regards Siberia, when given separately from Russia and Central Asia, they are seldom of recent date. Such statistics as are obtainable are given in the chapters to which they refer. All figures relating to population must be accepted with caution.
The Admiralty will be glad to receive corrections and additions.
