A very good, thorough historical account of the Chinese (Han) drive to claim the right to rule over the non-Han/Chinese peoples of Xinjiang--specifically the Uyghurs/Uighurs, who are the largest "minority" group in Xinjiang. Bovington does an excellent job painting the background to the People's Republic of China (PRC) hooks into this far-flung section of modern China and the consistent lies, deceit, and historical revisionism they put forth to the world in rationalizing their claims.
