	Alexander Suvorov
		On the 22nd of December 1790 Suvorov stormed Ismail in Bessarabia, and the sack and the massacre that followed the capture equals in horror such events as the "Spanish Fury" and the fall of Magdeburg.
		Suvorov's lieutenant Korsakov was defeated by André Masséna at Zürich, and the old field marshal, seeking to make his way over the Swiss passes to the Upper Rhine, had to retreat to the Vorarlberg, where the army, much shattered and almost destitute of horses and artillery, went into winter quarters.
		Suvorov lies buried in the church of the Annunciation in the Alexandro-Nevskii monastery, the simple inscription on his grave being, according to his own direction, "Here lies Suvorov." But within a year of his death the tsar Alexander I erected a statue to his memory in the Field of Mars, St. Petersburg.

	Alexander Suvorov
		Suvorov served as a junior officer against the Prussians in the Seven Years' War and fought in the Battle of Kinersdorf on August 12, 1759.
		Suvorov also disdained the typical siege mentality of the time and expounded the theory that the army would sustain fewer casualties in an immediate attack than it would through disease during a prolonged siege.
		Suvorov not only developed the tactical maneuvers of future Russian armies, he established himself as a military leader to be emulated by those who followed.

		The capture of Ismail brought Suvorov the glory of a great Russian commander, but he did not get the Field-Marshal baton, he got only the rank of colonel of the Leib-Guards Preobrazhensky regiment (in Russia in was a very high rank, Empress Catherine II herself had the rank of colonel of this Guards regiment too).

	Suvorov - Russia's Eagle Over the Alps
		Suvorov always felt that these slowed his advancement, and despite his accomplishments against the Turks, he was promoted to General in chief only in 1787 - in time to take command in the Second Turkish War (1787-1792).
		Suvorov began to train this army according to his own ideas and in 1797 wrote his major work "The Science of Victory." His ideas emphasized speed and mobility, accuracy of fire, and the bayonet, and his colloquial style was unusual for the time and subject matter.
		Suvorov believed that opportunity of the battlefield is the child of fortune, but exploitation called for intelligence, experience, and an intuitive eye - the "coup d'oeil." On the battlefield, he emphasized speed, surprise, and concentration at the enemy's weakest point.

		Suvorov always chose to be in the most exposed position on the battlefield, for he believed in sharing the same risks and discomforts as his soldiers.

	Stalin's Role in the Coming of World War II
		Suvorov also suggested a new account of what the Soviet boss also had to have had in mind two.years earlier, in 1939, when he signed the "nonaggression" pact with Hitler, a move that set up the conditions for the German and Soviet attacks on Poland.
		Now other accounts confirming Suvorov's and Semidetko's separately reached conclusions on this key point--the fact of their separateness is itself important--have come into my hands, One is a source Soviet in provenance, again, diplomatic, or from diplomatic intelligence, and totally independent from the military sources cited by the two Russians.
		Suvorov's appearance in German, commercially published in book form, testifies to the key role of the pact and the Soviet war in the ever-running and lively, if restricted, German public historical discussion of wartime events and behavior.

	Viktor Suvorov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Suvorov argued that Hitler has lost World War II from the very moment he attacked the Poland, because he started war with powerful Allies, while the Soviet Union was waiting to attack him from the rear at the most appropriate moment.
		Suvorov's most significant thesis is that Stalin wished to extend his Socialism in One Country thesis by igniting a war among "imperialist" countries and later "liberating" Europe.
		Suvorov reminded the reader that all of the USSR's pre-war doctrine was based on Marxism-Leninism, which dictated that capitalism will be overthrown through communist revolution.

	The Classic Approach (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Suvorov was an avid student of the history of Rome, and he surely realized that the reintroduction of Roman discipline was in some measure responsible for what few advances were possible in an age of stagnant technology.
		Suvorov is often credited with fostering a "cult of the bayonet" which would return to haunt the Russians a century later when M. Dragomirov came to stress the importance of cold steel at the expense of tactical and technical innovation.
		Suvorov believed that there was no better way both to instruct cavalry in the intricacies of attacking infantry and to instill in infantry the necessary steadiness to ward off cavalry.

	Suvorov's Übergang or Devil's Bridge.
		Thousands of Russians slipped from the cliffs or succumbed to cold and hunger, but Suvorov, never admitting that he was retreating, eventually escaped encirclement and reached Chur on the Rhine with the bulk of his army--16,000 men--intact.
		Suvorov's Alpine feat gained the grudging admiration of the astonished French and earned him the nickname of the Russian Hannibal, but it did nothing to improve his standing with Paul, who, disgusted with Austrian policy and conduct, withdrew from the coalition.
		We suppose to repeat a campaign of Suvorov exactly after 200 years, but in today's political and cultural conditions, to realize it not military, but with art forces, not with the help of guns and cannons, and using musical instruments, dramatic and visual arts.

		And yet Suvorov wisely concludes that no other type of army was possible for the Soviet Union, or even desirable: one of the central ironies of history is that had Russia been a democracy in 1941, it certainly would have been crushed by the Germans.
		Suvorov's "Inside The Soviet Army" and the companion "Inside Soviet Military Intelligence" are excellent examples of an insiders view of the complex machinations of the Soviet military and political systems, well written, factual, and a fine addition to any library.
		But Suvorov is indeed a provocative, and occasionally heartbreaking, analyst of the treacherous political ladder of the Soviet military, its revolting barracks life (more corrupt and sadistic than the worst excesses of late Austro-Hungarian decadence) and its lack of faith in its own mission.

		“Suvorov” set off on her far and hard voyage to the shores of the Russian America on the 21 of October 1813.
		The circumnavigation of “Suvorov” was purely commercial and her call in Port-Jackson was caused by the necessity to give the crew a rest and do the scheduled repairs.
		Their comments are interesting, first of all, as they resulted from direct contacts of the “Suvorov” crewmen with native population of the fifth continent.

		Alexander Vassilievich Suvorov is known as an invincible military leader and a model for Russian soldiers for all times.
		Suvorov also noted this interesting regularity: given the even growth of superiors' rights, even if the power proved more severe, a soldier would obtain justice all the same though with greater difficulty, as it was difficult to climb a higher mountain.
		Importantly, the linearity, as he saw it, was due to the top instance, God's power, that is, the moral principle which absolutely everyone--from ordinary soldier to the emperor--should seek to achieve while performing his duties.
