Exile, Murder and Madness in Siberia, 1823-61
About this book
Despite reports of exile proving disastrous to the region, 300, 000 Russian subjects, from political dissidents to the elderly and mentally disabled, were deported to Siberia from 1823-61. Their stories of physical and psychological suffering, heroism and personal resurrection, are recounted in this compelling history of tsarist Siberian exile.
