Description

This book extensively presents the reviews addressed to the author regarding the four-volume work "Abyraly - the Navel of Sary-Arka". The author's main purpose is not self-praise but, through these reviews, to introduce the public to statesmen, scholars and figures of pride known to the entire Kazakh nation in various fields, and to make their biographies public. You will become acquainted with the thoughts of renowned scholars and academicians Rabiga Syzdykova, Rymgali Nurgali, Seit Kaskabasov, Kaidar Arystanbekov, Erengaiyp Shaikhutdinov, Alshynbai Rakyshev, People's Writer Azilkhan Nurshaikhov, People's Artist Kauken Kenzhetaev, and dozens of other major scholars. We believe the value of these books lies in digging through the archives and offering the people riches that had lain gathering dust. Of particular interest are little-known facts about the 1851 history of northern, eastern, south-eastern and central Kazakhstan, starting from Kostanay, and records of its incorporation into Russia. The book pays special attention to previously unpublished interesting facts related to Abai, Kunanbai, Alshynbai and the Shynybai family. It has also shed light on many secrets of Shakarim's previously sealed case. Readers express heartfelt thanks for the information about the difficult routes of pilgrimage to Hajj, the Koyandy fair, documents on petitions written to the Tsar, the conscription of Kazakhs in 1916, confiscation of property, the 1931 uprising, and the bloody events of 1937-1940. In particular, there are no few families who did not know what kind of man their father was; it is worth especially noting how finding photographs for them brought them joy. Ministry staff express great gratitude that the author brought to light the 10-volume (over 6,000-page) case on the "Temirtau Uprising", unknown to anyone for more than 40 years under a layer of dust, and proved the integrity of the then Minister of Internal Affairs, Kabylbayev Shyrabek. One sign of the warm reception this book received from the Kazakh people was the honorary professorship conferred on the author by Shakarim University in Semey. The book's presentation was held at the Abai Museum in Semey and the Mukhtar Auezov Museum in Almaty, attended by many renowned scholars, and good photographs of the event are included. The book contains very engaging photographs and stories about the pride of our country - war heroes Kasym Kaisenov, Talgat Begeldinov and Sagadat Nurmagambetov, and the nationally known Bizhamal Ramazanova and Azilkhan Nurshaikhov. It presents life facts about them not commonly known to all Kazakhs.
