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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Geoffrey Jukes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841764469\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841764467\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/19\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.56w x 0.26d","brand":"Geoffrey Jukes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991150756095,"sku":"9781841764467","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a664fdde-7253-476a-98d4-f779786bca8b.jpg?v=1683308723","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-russo-japanese-war-1904-1905-geoffrey-jukes-9781841764467","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
