In 1944 Moslem forces in China's westernmost province of Xinjiang
rose against the Chinese authorities and succeeded in establishing
a small independent Islamic state - the East Turkestan Republic.
Based on newly available archival material, this book describes the
Moslem challenge to Chinese rule and documents the Nationalist
government's response to newly awakened Turkic-Moslem nationalism
on China's most remote and politically sensitive north-western
frontier. With this book, Linda Benson aims to break new ground in
the study of Sino-Soviet relations and especially of the policies
of Chinese governments toward their national minorities.
