Though this exchange is well off-topic I have followed it with
considearbly
interest. It has reminded me of a German book "Tsushima" (Author escapes
me)
which I read when I was in school. It was one of the first military
history
books I read and I found it fascinating. Well written (not too common in
a
German history book) it told the epic story of that Russian fleet with
lots
of details about the voyage.

Was well before the torpedo boat revelations, though - I was young at
that
time ;-)
