In this study, Moulton (social sciences, Johnson & Wales U.) describes the Russian military campaigns of 1719-1721 and examines their contribution to the ending of the Great Northern War. Drawing mainly upon 18th-century Russian-language primary sources, he assesses the military strategy of Peter the Great and considers the diplomatic and financial involvement of Great Britain on behalf of Sweden. Supplemental materials include a chronology, maps, and statistics for the Russian fleets. The text is based upon the author's doctoral dissertation (2000, U. of Denver).
