V.E. Voronin's monograph is a continuation of his research on the life and activities of Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolaevich (1827-1892). The book reflects the events of the last years of the reign of Emperor Nicholas I and the beginning of the reign of Emperor Alexander II - the period from the late 1840s to the mid-1850s.
The author pays special attention to the activities of the Maritime Ministry headed by Grand Duke Konstantin - Admiral General of the Russian Navy on the eve and during the Crimean War of 1853-1856. The contribution of the Russian naval department to the development of naval strategy and its influence on the adoption of important state decisions, including on issues of war and peace is analyzed. The course of the first maritime reforms of those years is traced, thanks to which the department of the Admiral General became one of the key in solving the issues of domestic and foreign policy - a kind of flagship of the coming great era of reforms.
The book is addressed to a wide range of readers interested in the political and military history of Russia in the 19th century.
