The book is devoted to the uniforms, equipment and personal weapons of the military personnel of the Russian Navy during the reign of Emperors Alexander III and Nicholas II, as well as the period of the Provisional Government, i.e. from March 1881 to October 1917. During this era, the fleet was actively developing, which entailed various organizational and staffing innovations. Entire categories of naval ranks appeared, such as fleet conductors and ship midshipmen. The corps of the maritime department and the system of naval education were repeatedly reformed. All this had a significant impact on the uniforms and insignia of military sailors. The book is a logical continuation of the book “The Uniform of the Russian Navy. 1855-1881". The second volume includes information on the uniform of the corps of the naval department, naval educational institutions, fleet conductors and ship midshipmen, some other categories of naval ranks, chapters on personal weapons and equipment of military sailors, as well as descriptions of the rules for wearing various uniforms, orders and insignia. When writing the book, the regulatory documents of the maritime department, reference literature of that time, as well as archival materials were used. As illustrations, graphic documents from archival funds, historical photographic documents of the late XNUMXth - early XNUMXth centuries, as well as photographs of genuine items from domestic and foreign museum and private collections were used. Much of the information provided is published for the first time.
