The authors offer a complete commentary on the various intellectual and religious contexts that shaped the two texts and explain the historical significance of the Russian-Muslim confrontation. It is shown that the mountain war was a clash of two cultures, two religious outlooks and two different worlds. The book provides an important background for the ongoing contest between Russia and indigenous people for control of the Caucasus. 410 0$aSOAS/RoutledgeCurzon studies on the Middle East. 607 $aDagestan (Russia)$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aDagestan (Russia)$xEthnic relations 676 $a947.5/073/088297 701 $aSanders$b Thomas$f1951-$01020696 701 $aTucker$b Ernest$f1961-$01880271 701 $aHamburg$b Gary M$0678054 701 2$aTolstoy$b Leo$cgraf,$f1828-1910.$0159663 701 2$aQarahi$b Muhammad Tahir$fd. 1882.$01880272 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974641403321 996 $aRussian-Muslim confrontation in the Caucasus$94494149 997 $aUNINA
