I'm really proud that we at the Sigur Center for Asian Studies at GWU can offer this to our students. This and our endowment-supported Uyghur language classes make, I think, a strong beginning for the Uyghur Studies Initiative.

You played a very important role in the translation!! Nick here traveled to Missoula, MT, to read parts of the Tarikh-i Ḥamidi. Here he is, looking stylish somewhere in the mountains near Gold Creek. Nick's insights were vital to understanding the text's underlying narrative and polemics.
