Book Description
Japan was closed to the world until 1854 and its technology then was literally medieval. Great Britain, France and Russia divided the globe in the nineteenth century, but Japan was catching up. Its army and navy were retrained by Western powers and equipped with the latest weapons and ships. Japan wanted to further emulate its European mentors and establish a protectorate over Korea, yet Japanese efforts were blocked by Imperial Russia who had their own designs on the peninsula. The Russo-Japanese War started with a surprise Japanese naval attack against an anchored enemy fleet still believing itself at peace. It ended with the Battle of Tsushima, the most decisive surface naval battle of the 20th century. This gripping study describes this pivotal battle, and shows how the Japanese victory over Russia led to the development of the dreadnought battleship, and gave rise to an almost mythical belief in Japanese naval invincibility.

Book Description
The Battle of Tsushima was a major naval battle fought between the Russian and Japanese fleets on 27 May 1905 during the Russo-Japanese War (1904-05). It was naval history's only decisive sea battle fought by modern steel battleship fleets and the first naval battle in which wireless telegraphy (radio) played a critically important role. The Japanese fleet destroyed two-thirds of the Russian fleet which had travelled over 18,000 nautical miles to reach the Far East. The destruction of the Russian navy caused a bitter reaction from the Russian public which induced a peace treaty in September 1905 without any further battles. This first-hand account of the dramatic events written by a Russian Captain who survived the battle was first published in 1906 and is reprinted from a later edition of 1913.

Book Description
"Vladimir Semenoff's account of the famous naval Battle of Tsushima is a well known and highly regarded book by an author who experienced the conflict first hand. Although it has been published separately, Semenoff's account of the battle is just one segment of a far broader narrative--the parts of which were published out of chronological sequence as books and sections of books ... Leonaur's editors have, for the first time, ordered Semenoff's text chronologically, as a continuous narrative, in two volumes."--Publisher description.
