Some pencil and ink underlining and marginal comments noted. xiii, 278 p. Illusttraions. Maps Footnotes. Tables. Bibliography. Index. The author examines the causes, characteristics, and effects of the great flood of migratin over the Ural Mountains into Siberia in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is the thesis of this book that the Siberian migration was related to other developments in Russian society of late Tsarist times, which were tending to break down legal barriers between social classes and to provide all groups with greater access to economic opportunity. This interpretation of the migrations and the related social changes suggest the need for revision of certain wide-spread views on the half-century of Russian history prior to the overthrow of the Romanoff's during the Russian Revolution.
