Books/articles about the civil war in Russian Far East?

I would like to find some reading material which focuses on the Russian civil war in the Far East; basically the region east of Lake Baikal and north of Mongolia/China (I know the fighting overlapped into Mongolia with people like Sternberg and Semyonov, but in this case that is not part of my focus).
I would prefer books/articles which are in English, because I can not read Russian to academic level.

Kamil Giżycki books are the best I read. Full of first hand experiences.
But all in Polish and Giżycki was not a historian...

Thanks for the recommendation. Books in Polish are ok for me, and firsthand accounts are always valuable.
