Summary Spanning the period between the end of the Russo-Caucasian War and the death of the first female Chechen suicide bomber, this work compares Georgian, Chechen, and Daghestani depictions of anticolonial insurgency. Rebecca Gould draws from previously untapped archival sources as well as from prose, poetry, and oral narratives to assess the impact of Tsarist and Soviet rule in the Islamic Caucasus.
