Description

Explore a rare window into the history of the Kokand Khanate with The Life of Alimqul. This scholarly work from the Central Asia Research Forum examines a unique manuscript discovered in Tashkent, offering a native perspective on a state that once controlled territory comparable to continental western Europe. The book focuses on the life of Alimqul Amir-i Lashkar, the Commander-in-Chief of the Kokand army. As the de facto ruler of the state between 1863 and 1865, his leadership occurred during a transformative period just before the Russian Empire's conquest of the region in 1876. Readers will gain insight into the final years of the Kokand Khanate and the personal history of a leader who died in battle at age thirty-three, shortly before the fall of Tashkent to Russian troops. This text serves as a vital resource for those studying nineteenth-century Central Asian history, military leadership, and the regional shifts that shaped the modern world.
