Although he held no official position, Aleksandr Tatarinov succumbed to his curiosity and joined the Russian embassy delegation.
The seven-month detention of the Russian delegation by the Emir in Bukhara and Samarkand fueled the Russo-Bukhara conflict, and the Bukhara troops suffered a heavy defeat in the battle near Irjar.
The repercussions of this war can be followed in Tatarinov's work, located in the city.
The work includes negotiations with the embassy delegation in Bukhara for peace talks with the Russians, information about the Emir of Bukhara, descriptions of palace officials, detailed information about the Bukharan lifestyle, the region's riches, city routes, and cities.
Our aim in preparing this work for publication is to serve Turkish historiography and to take researchers and history lovers interested in the field on a new journey.
