Book Description
Excerpt from Kobo a Story of the Russo-Japanese War My dear Ralph, Last year, I remember, you •were a little reproachful because I sent " Tom Burnaby" to Jack at Harrow, and I made you a half promise that possibly at some future date you Taylorians should not be forgotten. I am better than my word. Here is a book-too late for your birthday, but in time for Christmas-which I hope will meet with your good favour. It is now nearly ten years since, on one of the bridges in Osaka, I watched a battalion of the Imperial Guards marching to the China war. The Chinese had been driven across the Yalu and hustled through Manchuria; the Guards were to assist in carrying the war, if necessary, to the walls of Pekin. There was something in the bearing of those short, sturdy, alert little soldiers to arrest the attention and give food for thought. They had all the purposeful air of our own Gurkhas, with a look of keener intelligence, and a joyous eagerness that thrilled the observer. In the China war the Japanese were for the first time measuring their strength. It was merely practice for the great struggle with the Colossus of the North which all knew to be inevitable, however long delayed. The humbling of China cost Japan little real effort, and we in this country hardly realized all that was at stake when European diplomacy robbed the victor of the fruits of victory.

Book Description
Excerpt from The North Pacific: A Story of the Russo-Japanese War As in the preparation of Navy Blue and Cleared for Action, the author has taken great pains to verify the main facts of the present story, so far as they are concerned with the incidents of the great struggle still in progress between the empires of the East and the West. He acknowledges most gratefully the assistance received from the office of the Secretary of the Navy, from ex-Secretary John D. Long, and from Commander W. H. H. Southerland, now commanding the U. S. Cruiser Cleveland, Commander Austin M. Knight, President of the Board on Naval Ordnance, and Chief Engineer Edward Farmer, retired.

Book Description
Excerpt from Brown of Moukden: A Story of the Russo-Japanese War My dear Raymond, Last year I wove a romance about the early incidents of the great war now happily at an end; this year I have chosen its later incidents as the background for my heroes adventures. But while in "Kobo" the struggle was viewed from the Japanese stand-pointy in "Brown of Moukden" (which is in no sense a sequel) you will find yourself among the Russians looking at the other side of the shield. It is not the romancer's business to be a partisan; and we British people were at firsts perhaps a little blind to the fact that the bravery the endurance the heroism have not been all on the one side. As a boy preparing for the Navy, you would have liked I dare say, to see jack Brown in the thick of the great naval battle, at Tsushima. But I had three reasons for giving no space to that famous victory. First, jack could not possibly have seen it. Secondly, sea-fights had a very good turn in "Kobo." Thirdly, I hope some day to give you sea-dogs a whole book to yourselves - but that, as Mr. Kipling somewhere says, will be another story. Meanwhile, if you get half as much fun in reading this book as I have had in writing it, I shall count myself very lucky indeed.
