later stage; I believe that the legacy of such a wide-ranging struggle put
up for national liberation of Turkestan should not be lost in the
gloomy alleys of history. I contend that an account of the struggle
abroad for the liberation of Turkestan, including its positive and neg-
ative aspects, should be written down objectively, letting history make
the judgment. With this proposition in mind, I had been collecting rel-
evant data since the early 1990s when I was the proprietor-editor of
Türkistan, a Turkish-language quarterly journal published in Istanbul.
Access to original documents proved virtually an impassable barri-
er because in most cases the Turkestan national movement existed in
the form of secret organizations, for the circumstances so demanded.
Another major handicap in the documentation process was the fact
that the movement, which sustained for almost a century, was concur-
rently conducted in numerous countries, geographically far apart and
with different political environments. Therefore, it required source
study in multiple countries, both in the East and in the West. Access to
original documents and scanning through sources relevant to the his-
tory of development of the movement, and interviews with eyewitness-
es and informed persons believed to possess firsthand information,
took almost a decade. The outcome was worth the painstaking work.
I would like to offer my compliments and gratitude to everyone
who has contributed, in one way or another, in the writing of the pres-
ent work and apologize for not including a full list of names, which
would be rather long. I especially offer posthumous gratitude to Mrs.
Saide Oktay for her invaluable assistance in providing access to certain
unpublished archives relevant to the Turkestan National Union.
I also offer my special gratitude to Dr. Baymirza Hayit and the late
Veli Kajum Khan for letting me avail their personal memories and
information, both written and verbal; to Anke Bentzin of Humboldt
University for providing German source material; to Sabir Seyhan and
Ömer Hakan Özalp for reading of texts in Arabic script; and to Yunus
Bu¤ra for his invaluable help in translations into English.
For processing old photographs and documents and producing
presentable reproductions, highly important as they are, I acknowledge
my appreciation for the fine job done by my worthy friend Ömer
Dülger and other members of the RAM establishment.
Publication of the Turkish edition of the book having been widely
welcomed, completing its English version was deemed a necessity. I am
grateful indeed to my esteemed friend Ahmet Çal›k, chairman of Çal›k
Group, for his generous support in realizing this. The English version
could not have been published without his support.
Preface 19
Last but not least, I would like to thank my wife Dr. Gülnur Andican
for the support she provided by maintaining a lovely and tolerant
working environment at home, both during the preparatory stage of
the book and writing of the manuscript. I also thank my sons Aybek
and ‹lbek, who encouraged me by manifesting enthusiastic interest in
the work throughout.
