Focusing on the plight of the Tatar people along the Volga river, the book explores their history as Russia's first colonized group, beginning with their subjugation in 1552. It highlights the ongoing mistreatment by various Russian regimes and the gradual erosion of Tatar culture, particularly after the mid-19th century. Despite attempts at regaining independence in the 1990s, the process of russification has significantly diminished Tatar identity, raising concerns about the potential extinction of the Volga Tatars.
