## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    The objective of the Russo-Japanese war.
  

*by G***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 March 2024*

The fight for Port Arthur was to remove the Russian Pacific fleet from the war. The struggle of General Nogi's forces to capture the port foreshadowed the trench warfare of the First World war including the dangers of mines and barbed wire and the use of machine guns with heavy artillery by both sides. Casualty rates were equally as large yet because the Japanese succeeded many observers seem to have ignored the lessons to be learned when it came to the later war. A nice, concise volume with Osprey's usual attention to the participants as well as the course of the battles.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    An excellent book in the well established format of this series by a respected author.
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 January 2024*

From a slightly earlier period than the author's more usual Russian .and Soviet respective WW1 and WW2 focus but contains everything most readers will require and is written in a clear, accessible style with orders of battle etc. included, A story that uncannily anticipated aspects of WW1 a decade later.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very engaging to read that campaign called "The First Modern Siege"
  

*by G***S on Reviewed in the United States on 27 August 2024*

As for author, I applauded Robert Forczyk for his well-researched job on Port Arthur in 1904-5.  I was really engaged by the aggressive Japanese movements against the stubborn Russian Tsarist defences for one year.  Unbelievably, the unwise Japanese attacks were repeated against Russia four times with a serious loss of thousands of attackers under the leadership of inept-strategical General Nogi. Noticeably, the brilliant Russian engineering defence was worthwhile to save hundreds of Russians under the siege. Abruptly, General Stoessel made the quick last minute to make a surrender to Japan even though there was an abundance of food and arnesal for the Russian suvivors. With much joy, I read that book very throughly with my wide eyes!
