Download or read book The Tide at Sunrise written by Denis Warner and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Russo-Japanese War was fought in the waters of the Yellow Sea and the Straits of Tsushima that divide Japan from Korea, and in the mountains of Manchuria, borrowed without permission from China. It was the first war to be fought with modern weapons. The Japanese had fought the Chinese at sea in 1894 and had gained a foothold in Manchuria by taking control of Port Authur. In 1895, however, Japan was forced to abandon its claims by the Russian fleet's presence in the Straits of Tsushima. Tsar Nicholas had obtained a window to the East for his empire and Japan had been humiliated. Tensions between the two countries would rise inexorably over the next decade. Around the world, no one doubted that little Japan would be no match for the mighty armies of Tsar Nicholas II. Yet Russia was in an advanced state of decay, the government corrupt and its troops inept and demoralized. Japan, meanwhile, was emerging from centuries of feudal isolation and becoming an industrial power, led by zealous nationalist warlords keen to lead the Orient to victory over the oppressive West. From the opening surprise attack on the Russian fleet at Port Authur in 1904, the Japanese out-fought and out-thought the Russians. This is a definitive account of one of the pivotal conflicts of the twentieth century whose impact was felt around the world.

Book excerpt: "The Russo-Japanese war saw the first defeat of a major European imperialist power by an Asian country. When Japanese and Russian expansionist interests collided over Manchuria and Korea, the Tsar assumed Japan would never dare to fight. However, after years of planning, Japan launched a surprise attack on the Russian Port Arthur, on the Liaoyang Peninsula in 1904 and the war that followed saw Japan win major battles against Russia. This book explains the background and outbreak of the war, then follows the course of the fighting at Yalu River, Sha-ho, and finally Mukden, the largest battle anywhere in the world before the First World War."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "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.

Download or read book THE OFFICIAL HISTORY OF THE RUSSO JAPANESE WAR written by Committee of Imperial Defence and published by Naval & Military Press. This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an accurate view of the siege as was possible that is aided with the addition of good strategical maps to assist the reader to appreciate the relationship between these operations and the movement of field armies. This was war being observed by every military establishment and news agency in the world. The level of interest in the Russo-Japanese War rested on two facts: First, the idea of a small and rising Asian power engaging in a conflict with an established and huge European colonial power captured the imaginations of everyone. The other substantial issue was the use of weapons that were the product of a century of industrial development. The conclusions of pre-World War I studies revealed that the battlefield had become intensely lethal, for which the belligerents were not well prepared in any aspect. Moreover, the defeat of Imperial Russia infused a level of hope and energy to struggle for liberation into the people of colour throughout the colonial world. Because of the far-reaching global implications of the war, factors ranging from international political, financial and military relationships to the scale of the battlefield(s), to the size of armies and duration of battles, recent times have seen a resurgence in this conflict that was once rendered to the dustbin of history by World War I.
