[An] excellent volume for readers of popular history. But his work is more than a history. It is rather a neatly rounded and well-balanced survey of Soviet Central Asia, particularly during the last century. Wheeler not only sketches lucidly the penetration of czarist Russia into this vast region, but also analyzes its impact upon local life and cultures.... The book includes eye-catching illustrations and a basic bibliography.-Library Journal
