About this product

Product Information

This text examines the lives of the Don Cossacks in late Imperial Russia. The dual identity of the Cossacks, that of the steppe and of the settled Slavic areas, is emphasized as the key to their unique culture. The book explores how that identity manifested and preserved itself by focusing on Cossack tradition, economy, families, and communities. Far from being moribund and close to collapse, the book argues that the Cossack tradition remained among the most vibrant in the Empire.
