About this ebook
"From Libau to Tsushima" by Evgenii Sigizmundovich Politovskii is an account of the Russo-Japanese war. The book narrates a detailed voyage of the Russian fleet of Admiral Rojdestvensky. The book also includes an account of the Dogger Bank incident in depth. The fleet had to pass countries that were bound by the laws of neutrality, and some that were actually hostile to it. It was driven out of many ports by the ships of its allies. In spite of all these drawbacks, it accomplished a tremendous voyage with all "its units" intact.
The author was a constructor, not a sailor. This was his first cruise. His views of all that he saw are those of an independent person, bound by no traditions or clannishness. They appear to be absolutely impartial. In addition, through his position on the staff, he knew much that remained unknown to others.
