Zusammenfassung:"Mark Gamsa draws together the fragmented history of Manchuria - combining politics, culture and economy - in order to offer a new regional perspective on Chinese history. The book places particular emphasis on the history of the region, from the seventeenth century onwards, as a crucial site of Russia's expansion towards the Far East. Manchuria comprised a region in North East Asia, stretching across China, Mongolia and northeast Russia. As the home of the Manchu people, Manchuria has had a huge impact on the history of the modern world ? whether through the Manchu emperors, a dynasty which only collapsed after WWI, the interactions between Russia and China in the 20th Century and the invasion of Manchuria by Japan during the Second World War. Mark Gamsa seeks to re-orientate the history of the East around Manchuria ? a region with much more to offer for scholars of Russia, China and the East."
