Revolt of the Tartars: Or Flight of the Kalmuck Khan is a historical account written by Thomas De Quincey in 1896. The book tells the story of the Kalmuck Khanate, a nomadic tribe that lived in the steppes of Central Asia and was part of the Mongol Empire. In 1771, the Kalmucks revolted against the Russian Empire, which had annexed their territory, and began a long and perilous journey to find a new home in China. De Quincey's book is based on the accounts of eyewitnesses and survivors of the Kalmuck exodus. He describes the Kalmucks' way of life, their customs and beliefs, and the events that led to their rebellion. He also portrays the cruelty and violence of the Russian soldiers and officials who oppressed the Kalmucks and sparked their revolt. The book follows the Kalmucks' journey across the vast steppes and deserts of Central Asia, through snowstorms, hunger, and attacks from hostile tribes. De Quincey vividly describes the hardships and sufferings of the Kalmucks, as well as their moments of courage, resilience, and solidarity. He also portrays the landscape and wildlife of the steppes, creating a vivid and poetic picture of this remote and fascinating region. Revolt of the Tartars: Or Flight of the Kalmuck Khan is a gripping and vividly written historical account that sheds light on a little-known episode of Central Asian history. It is a testament to the human spirit's courage and endurance in the face of adversity and a tribute to the Kalmuck people's resilience and determination.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
