From 1796-1917, the Russian Imperial Army fought in a number of wars--mostly as part of Russia's quest to expand its empire. This collection contains 23 previously published essays dealing with the tsar's armies during this period. The essays are arranged chronologically to give readers a sense of change and continuity in the army over time. Sample topics include alcoholism in the Russian military; the use of Balkan Irregulars during the Russo-Turkish War; and the economic burden of defense in Imperial Russia. Editor Reese is affiliated with Texas A #38; M University. Annotation #169;2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
