On a summer morning in 1709, the Swedish army—exhausted, outnumbered, and low on powder—marched into a hail of Russian cannon fire outside the fortress of Poltava. Within hours, Charles XII’s invincible war machine lay shattered, and the dream of a Baltic empire bled into the Ukrainian mud.
This edition includes original tactical diagrams and phase-by-phase maps that show exactly how the formations moved and broke. Order-of-battle tables list every regiment on both sides, and each anecdote is sourced to the ancient and primary historians by name—not vague attributions. For readers of narrative military history who want the battle as it happened, with the evidence laid bare.
