The work by Moscow State University professor D. M. Volodikhina, Doctor of Historical Sciences, is devoted to a remarkable event in the history of the Russian Navy: Admiral Dmitry Nikolaevich Senyavin’s triumph over Turkish forces in the Lemnos-Afon Battle of 1807. This naval battle became an example not only of the commander’s skill, but also of the courage and endurance of Russian sailors. The book uses a variety of documentary sources, including materials from the Russian State Archive of the Navy (RGAVMF), as well as numerous memoirs, including recollections written by Admiral Senyavin himself.
