In the brief war, so familiar to visitors from the twenty-first century, the Japanese army and navy suffered a crushing defeat. The Land of the Rising Sun is squeezed by a naval blockade and stands on the brink of capitulation. But all of this is actively disliked by those who set the Asian tiger loose and raised it—because, as a result of their combination, Russia didn’t weaken; instead, it became unbelievably stronger.

In London, they know how to build cunning plans and carry them out.

Learn what hired men of foreign capital are ready to do to achieve their goals—and what the outcome of the unseen battle at the Petersburg frontier will be.
