This book provides a ready introduction and practical guide to the
Chechen people and some little-known and rarely-considered aspects
of Chechen culture, including customs and traditions, folklore,
arts and architecture, music, and literature. It also narrates
Chechen history from ancient times and provides sketches of archaic
religions and civilizations. Jaimoukha reveals the esoteric social
structure and the peculiar brand of Chechen Sufism, as well as the
present political situation in Chechnya. As the only comprehensive
guide available in English, this book is an indispensable and
accessible resource for all those with an interest in Chechnya.
