One surprising outcome of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905 was that, although Russia was humiliatingly defeated, by 1916 Russia and Japan had become allies. This book provides a detailed analysis of how this remarkable turnaround came about, and charts diplomatic developments; explores how Japanese and Russian thinking evolved; and assesses the wider international impact of the new alliance.
