The definitive history of the Russo-Japanese war The Russians were
wrong-footed from the start, fighting in Manchuria at the end of a
5,000 mile single track railway; the Japanese were a week or so
from their bases. The Russian command structure was hopelessly
confused, their generals old and incompetent, the Tsar cautious and
uncertain. The Russian naval defeat at Tsushima was as farcical as
it was complete. The Japanese had defeated a big European power,
and the lessons for the West were there for all to see, had they
cared to do so. From this curious war, so unsafely ignored for the
most part by the military minds of the day, Richard Connaughton has
woven a fascinating narrative to appeal to readers at all levels.
