The monumental work “Military History of Russia. From ancient times to the great conquests of the Russian Empire” is a large‑scale systematic study based on the famous pre‑revolutionary publication by Ivan Kushnerëv, “Russian Military Power”. Written by career officers of the General Staff of the Russian Empire, this book is still recognized as one of the best and most detailed monuments of Russian military‑historical thought. The chronological scope of the study covers a vast period: from the emergence of the first Slavic princely дружины in Ancient Rus’ to the end of the 19th century. The authors trace in detail how the Russian regular army developed and transformed into a decisive geopolitical factor on the world stage. A unique feature of this book is the combination of an in‑depth operational and tactical analysis of battles with a detailed description of military life, customs, and the evolution of weapons and equipment of units in different eras. The reader can clearly see how the country’s defensive power was forged during times of large‑scale conquests and wars that were pivotal for the state. The book also introduces the key concepts of strategic planning, reforms in troop recruitment, and the distinctive features of Russian military art. The publication is traditionally accompanied by a wealth of illustrative material, including ancient battle plans, maps, and sketches of military uniforms. This fundamental work will be indispensable for military specialists, professional historians, and anyone who wants to understand the origins of the victories of Russian arms.
