WALTER RICHMOND is the director of the Russian Studies Program at Occidental College, Los Angeles. He is the author of The Northwest Caucasus: Past, Present, Future.

"Richmond provides a well-researched history of the deportation and destruction of the Circassians. This guide to the destruction of the Circassians, an often-overlooked tragedy, is valuable for a wide range of audiences. Recommended."(Choice) "[An] outstanding contribution to Caucasus studies. Richmond makes an important contribution to the understanding of the contemporary problems in the Caucasus, one that suggests that the deep-rooted wounds of the past do not cure themselves and do not simply go away with time but are still waiting to be resolved, even after a century and a half. All students and scholars, as well as policy makers, interested in the history and contemporary politics of the Caucasus will benefit from reading this excellent study." (Slavic Review) "Richmond's work is a ground-breaking contribution to the history of Russia, the Caucasus, and genocide. For the first time it sheds light on this hidden tragedy on the frontier between Russia and the Middle East." - Brian Glyn Williams (University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth) "Walter Richmond's The Circassian Genocide is a timely work that masterfully investigates the ninteenth-century Russian policies over the Circassian lands, shedding light on one of the least-known and first genocides of modern history." (Russian Review) "[The Circassian Genocide] is well informed and contains a mass of information that will be new to most readers, about the events of 1863–1864 themselves, their background and subsequent developments."
