Railways and the Russo-Japanese War The book explores the nexus between railways and the Russo-Japanese War (19041905) the rst modern war and one in which the railways played a key part. This volume examines some of the key dimensions of the Russo-Japanese war, and most notably how uncomfortably technological and human dimensions of Russias war effort interleaved in the course of the conict. The authors demonstrate how advantages that might have been built upon were squandered, blunt traditional forms and habits were applied in politically tortuous contexts, and technological edge was negated by the internal turmoil of a country unable to tame a process of modernisation.
