The best destroyer "Novik", the heroes of the Moonsund battle from the famous novel by Valentin Pikul, the cruiser "Aurora", who has become a symbol of the October Revolution, is perhaps everything that is known to the ordinary reader about the Russian fleet of the First World War.
A new book of the professor of the Institute of History of St. Petersburg State University K.B. Nazarenko for the first time opens the doors to the "Club for the Electors" - as the officer corps of the Russian fleet was called. Based on archival documents, considering the marine officers of the First World War in detail the author answers the most complex and controversial questions. What were the social origin and combat experience of fleet officers? How did they grow in ranks and received awards? How much did their number grow during the war with the Germans? How many officers of the Russian fleet died during the First World War and how much - at the hands of their own sailors during the mights of 1917? Finally, how did the situation of officers of the former tsarist fleet change in the revolutionary 17th?
