In this excellent work, Jennifer Keating shows that paying close attention to seemingly little things like sand, saxaul, termites, and apples, in addition to more traditional big topics like cotton and irrigation, is crucial to our understanding of the Russian Empire in Turkestan...Keating's book draws heavily on archives in St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Almaty. It also engages deeply with the historiography of Russian Central Asia and places it in the context of new global histories of empire and the environment. This makes it a welcome addition to several fields, and of interest to historians not only of Russia or Central Asia but also of imperialism and the environment.
