Stevens' "Russia's Wars of Emergence, 1460-1730" offers a chronological analysis of Russia's military evolution, emphasizing the sociopolitical dynamics influencing its army and tactics. The work highlights key periods of military organization, political challenges, and the impact of foreign warfare on the Muscovite military structure.
