The First World War. The eve of revolution. The terrifying times for our country. And— the legend of the Baltic Fleet, performing miracles of heroism in unequal battles with the German army at Moonzund. A legend of the courage of officers—and of the nearly suicidal bravery of ordinary sailors! One of V. Pikul’s strongest, toughest, and most multifaceted books. Gripping from the first page—and keeping you tense until the very last!
