The Partition of the Steppe The Struggle of the Russians, Manchus, and the Zunghar Mongols for Empire in Central Asia, 1619-1758 A Study in Power Politics
Fred W. Bergholz
This fascinating book covers the history of relations between China and Russia from 1619 to 1758 as their empires expanded into the steppes of Central Asia and the Amur river valley in Northeast Asia. It thoroughly researches their quarrels with each other and a third power in Central Asia, the Zunghar Khanate that also attempted to create its own empire. The Zunghar Mongols represented the last flowering of nomad power in Asia before the modern weapons, muskets and cannon, of China and especially Russia ended forever the influence of the nomads on World history
