Type : Softcover Russo-Swedish War of 1808-1809 Volume 1 – January – October 1808. An account of the war waged by Emperor Alexander Pavlovich against Sweden in 1808-1809. This war, which coincided with the tumultuous events that shook central and southern Europe, remains still largely unknown and unheralded. The Russian struggle against the Swedes and Finns, in the remote regions of the North, far from crucial events in Europe, seemed less important and inconsequential in a time when countries between the estuary of the Danube River and Lisbon shuddered at the thunder of guns, when mighty armies clashed in Wallachia, at the walls of Vienna, on the banks of the Ebro and Tagus, and when the fate of powerful monarchies and ancient dynasties was at stake.
