Summary: "The Battle of Tsu-shima" by V. I. Semenov is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book provides an eyewitness narrative of the pivotal naval battle between the Japanese and Russian fleets, fought on May 27, 1905. Semenov, a captain aboard the Russian battleship "Suvoroff", shares his experiences and observations from the battle, ultimately focusing on the strategic and tactical lessons learned from the engagement. At the start of the narrative, the atmosphere is tense and foreboding as the Russian fleet prepares to navigate the Tsushima Strait. Semenov describes the voyage from Shanghai, detailing the fleet's struggles, the various ship formations, and the sentiments among the officers as they anticipate a confrontation with the Japanese fleet. Despite the camaraderie and determination, there is an underlying concern about their preparedness, especially as they face an enemy famously skilled under Admiral Togo. The opening chapters set the stage for the battle, showcasing the motivations and apprehensions of the Russian crew while foreshadowing the chaos and destruction that will soon unfold.
