A new book by historians A.N. Lobin and N.V. Smirnov is dedicated to Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich's campaign against Riga during the Russo-Swedish War of 1656–1658. This unsuccessful campaign has not yet been the subject of close study in scholarly literature, leading to a somewhat distorted view of the military events of 1656 in historiography. Drawing on Swedish and Russian documentary sources, the historians detail the preparation and organization of the campaign, the fighting and siege, the reasons for the siege's lifting, and the retreat of Russian troops. A complete chronology of the campaign is presented, literally day by day, week by week. Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich's failure at Riga gave new impetus to reforms of the armed forces.

This book is intended for historians and readers interested in the military history of Russia in the 17th century.
