" In terms of resource mobilization and devastation the wars
between Russia, the Crimean Khanate and the Ottoman Empire were
some of the largest of the eighteenth century, and had enormous
consequences for the balance of power in Eastern Europe. Davies
examines how these conflicts characterized the course of Russian
military development in response to Ottoman and Crimean Tatar
threats and to determine under what circumstances and in what ways
Russian military power experienced a "revolution" awarding it clear
preponderance over the Ottoman-Crimean system. A central part of
this Davies' argument is that identifying and explaining a Military
Revolution must involve examining the role of factors not purely
military. One must look not only at new military technology, new
force and command structure, new tactical thinking, and new
recruitment and military finance practices but also consider the
impact of larger demographic, economic, and sociopolitical
changes."
