Cruisers of the Volunteer Fleet in the War with Japan (1904-1905)
29.99 €
This book is about the history of the design, construction, and combat service of the Russian Imperial Navy's right arm, the steamship-cruisers of the Voluntary Fleet. Intended to serve as trade fighters, these ships were ironically traditionally built in England, with whose trade they were to fight in the event of war.
The crews of the steam cruisers honorably fulfilled the tasks set by the Japanese War. Unfortunately, the very course of the unfortunate war nullified the tactical successes of the Russian raiders. However, in the world, the first experience of the fight against the British trade was not wasted. Ten years later, this fight was continued by German surface and underwater raiders, putting the British on the edge of disaster. Thus was confirmed the correctness of the Russian doctrine of cruiser warfare.
The book is illustrated with many photographs, schemes and drawings.
