Book excerpt: "The twin photographs shown in this book are reproductions of old stereographs more commonly known as stereo views. They were taken by a special camera having two horizontally mounted lenses spaced about seven centimeters apart, which is about the same spacing as between our eyes. When the stereograph is correctly viewed through an optical viewer such that the left eye sees the picture taken by the camera's left lens and the right eye sees the picture taken by the camera's right lens, each eye will perceive a slightly different perspective. On receiving the two different images, the brain will fuse the scene into one three dimensional picture, often referred to as 3D. Depth is the third dimension, which when combined with height and breadth, seemingly brings the picture to life ... In this book, the enlarged single image located above each stereoscopic pair enables quick viewing of the scene without using the viewing device ... Most of the scenes reproduced in this book were taken by James Ricalton who, at the time, was employed by stereograph publishing firm of Underwood and Underwood. We are fortunate today to be able to view his stereographs and to experience the realism of his three dimensional images. This book is about the Russo-Japanese war, not James Ricalton"--Preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Siege: The Investment and Fall of Port Arthur The siege of Port Arthur forms a well-defined episode, separated from and practically independent of the other events of the great war between Russia and Japan. Clear in outline and complete in itself, it stands out in bold relief from the more complex and intricate operations at the main theatre of war. As all the fighting took place over a comparatively small area, the events of the siege have been easy to follow and understand. I, as correspondent of the Daily Mail, had the privilege of watching the operations from the first day to the capitulation. From a military point of view the siege of Port Arthur derives its greatest interest from the fact that it is the first regular siege that has been carried out against a modern fortress during the last half century. The science of modern military engineering, all its new improvements in the art of fortification and in the means of destruction, have here stood their first practical test, and the question of the chances of the offensive against the defensive under modern conditions has to a large extent been solved.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Siege of Port Arthur: Records of an Eye-Witness The suddenness and success of the torpedo attack on the Russian fleet anchored in reck less security in the outer roadstead, which Opened the war, marked for Russia the begin ning of irretrievable disaster, and was the first blow struck for the honour of Japan; and ever afterwards, when they met, the flag of Russia went down before the banner of Japan, on land and on the sea. Russians heard the dismal tale of that first encounter on the Yalu with rankling bitterness born of defeat at the hands of a despised foe, and they little thought that because a Russian army had been forced to retreat, it had been thoroughly beaten by the Skill and courage of Japanese troops; for they had a dream of military supre macy woven around vast armies that were to drive the insolent foe into the seas, and the adverse issue of that first engagement could not dispel this dream. But afield, the effect of this first overthrow of Russian arms was most disastrous in its consequences. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Truth About Port Arthur The siege of Port Arthur was the event of the late war in the Far East which most attracted the attention and interest of the rest of the world. There were other military operations, it is true, of equal if not of greater importance to the ultimate issue of the struggle; but, owing to their complexity, their slowness, and the absence of definite advance information, their progress and purport were not easily grasped by any save military students. The case of Port Arthur was different. The long drawn-out agony of the siege was continued before the eyes of the world for many months, *6 and, while the imagination was touched by its romantic side, the point at issue was at once apparent. Even so, there was much mystery about the conduct of the defence and the eventual fall of the Fortress; for, owing to its remote position and almost complete isola tion by the enemy, the available information almost entirely consisted of that supplied by correspondents with the Japanese, and was, therefore, information from the outside, and more or less a history of results alone. In 1907, or between two and three years after the culmina tion of the siege, the inevitable disclosures - the aftermath of defeat - which sometimes help to an appreciation of causes began to be made in Russia.
