Book Description
Excerpt from The Russian Government in Poland: With a Narrative of the Polish Insurrection The material for the following narrative were collected by me during three visits to Russia and Poland in the years 1868, 1864, and 1865. My sources of information were various. From Lord Napier, then the English Ambassador at St. Petersburg, from Mr. Lumley, the Secretary, and from Mr. Michell, the first Attach of the Embassy, I received from time to time very valuable information. They necessarily heard statements from persons who represented all the parties interested in the Polish question, as well as the views put forward by the representatives of other European powers in St. Petersburg, and I am greatly indebted to them for the assistance they afforded to me. Mr. Michell especially, from his long residence in Russia and his intimate knowledge of the institutions and state of public feeling in the empire, gave me an amount of assistance that I could not have procured elsewhere. At Warsaw the Consul-General, Colonel Stanton, and the Vice-Consul, Mr. Wtite, were equally ready to aid me; and Mr. White's long connection with Poland, and his unequalled experience of the men and parties with whom in the course of my narrative I have to deal, gave the greatest weight to his views and criticisms.

Book Description
This book concerns the mass deportation of Poles and others to Siberia following the failed 1863 Polish Insurrection. The imperial Russian government fell back upon using exile to punish the insurrectionists and to cleanse Russia’s Western Provinces of ethnic Poles. It convoyed some 20,000 inhabitants of the Kingdom of Poland and the Western Provinces across the Urals to locations as far away as Iakutsk, and assigned them to penal labor or forced settlement. Yet the government’s lack of infrastructure and planning doomed this operation from the start, and the exiles found ways to resist their subjugation. Based upon archival documents from Siberia and the former Western Provinces, this book offers an unparalleled exploration of the mass deportation. Combining social history with an analysis of statecraft, it is a unique contribution to scholarship on the history of Poland and the Russian Empire.
