The first publication of the foundational primary-source history of the Volga German colonists, composed by Yakov (Jakob) Yegorovich Dits (Dietz, 1864-1917) - lawyer, deputy of the First State Duma of the Russian Empire, and himself a direct descendant of the founding colonists, his ancestor David Dietz having arrived from the Principality of Erbach in June 1765 with the first settler groups. Dietz prepared the text for the 150th anniversary of the German colonies on the Volga, but the First World War, the Revolution of 1917, and his own death in Saratov in August 1917 prevented its publication; the manuscript lay unidentified in the Engels Branch of the Saratov State Archive for eighty years before being brought to press in this joint Russian-German academic project. The volume examines the full history of the colonies from Catherine II's colonization manifestos of 1762-1763 through the nineteenth century and into the early twentieth, covering the initial settlement of 1764-1766, the administrative history of the Saratov Guardianship Office and the colonial self-governance structures, land use, agriculture, manufacturing, the sarpianka textile and milling industries, church administration (Catholic, Lutheran, and Mennonite), education, the Pugachev Rebellion among the colonists, Kirghiz and Kalmyk incursions, and the manners and customs of the colonist community. Drawing on legislative acts, archival documents many of which have since been lost, memoirs of old colonists, and Guardianship Office records, it remains the most comprehensive insider history of the Volga German settlements ever written. Published as part of the Göttinger Arbeitskreis series (Nr. 465) with support from both the Russian and German interior ministries, this 1997 first edition preceded the 2000 and subsequent reprints.
