This volume contains an account of the Russo-Japanese War from the opening of hostilities until the end of the first general attack upon Port Arthur on the 24th August, 1904. It therefore includes the transfer oversea and the disembarkation on the mainland of the Japanese forces, the converging march of the First, Second, and Fourth Armies upon Liao-yang, and General Kuropatkin's gradual retreat to his prepared lines of defence in front of that town. It also covers the advance of the Japanese Third Army down the Kuan-tung Peninsula, until it was checked by the formidable line of permanent and semi-permanent works which protected the harbour. The naval operations include those undertaken by the Japanese in conjunction with, and for the protection of, the landing of their armies, the three attempts to block the exit from the harbour of Port Arthur, and the battles of the Yellow Sea on the 10th August, and of Ulsan on the 14th of that month. In the latter action the Vladivostok squadron was so severely bandied that it took no further part in the war; but at the date when this volume closes the Port Arthur fleet, although greatly weakened, was still an important factor in the situation.
