This book provides a general introduction to the history of Jewish
life in 14th century Asia at the time of the conqueror Tamerlane
(Timur). The author defines who are the Central Asian Jews, and
describes the attitudes towards the Jews, and the historical
consequences of this relationship with Tamerlane. Left alone to
live within a stable empire, the Jews prospered under Tamerlane. In
founding an empire, Tamerlane had delivered Central Asia from the
last Mongols, and brought the nations of Transoxonia within the
orbit of Persian civilisation. The Central Asian Jews accepted this
spirit and preserved it until modern times in their language and
culture.
