Synopsis
The Russians were wrong-footed from the start, fighting in Manchuria at the end of a 5,000 mile single track railway; the Japanese were a week or so from their bases. The Russian command structure was hopelessly confused, their generals old and incompetent, the Tsar cautious and uncertain. The Russian naval defeat at Tsushima was as farcical as it was complete. The Japanese had defeated a big European power, and the lessons for the West were there for all to see, had they cared to do so. From this curious war, so unsafely ignored for the most part by the military minds of the day, Richard Connaughton has woven a fascinating narrative to appeal to readers at all levels., The definitive history of the Russo-Japanese war The Russians were wrong-footed from the start, fighting in Manchuria at the end of a 5,000 mile single track railway; the Japanese were a week or so from their bases.

This might just be the first time I’ve ever bought anything on eBay & had it look even better than it did in the pictures.
Book quality is perfect (it’s about $15-20 for a beat up copy, so this is just great; I highly appreciate it.)
The seller shipped very, very quickly, & it is appreciated & commended as it would’ve arrived Wednesday instead of Monday, that is today.
Packaging is relatively thin, but that wasn’t a problem for me.
5/5 stars

I had been searching for this book for some time and when I saw this one listed I purchased it right away and the seller shipped it immediately. However, I ended up in the hospital unexpectedly so the package was returned. I contacted the seller and they reshipped again no charge, which was awesome as I offered to pay for second shipping. Would definitely buy from them again.
