The Origins of the Crimean War, Paperback / softback Book

The Origins of the Crimean War Paperback / softback

Part of the Origins Of Modern Wars series

Paperback / softback

Description

The Crimean War (1853-56) between Russia, Turkey, Britain, France and the Kingdom of Sardinia was a diplomatically preventable conflict for influence over an unstable Near and Middle East.

It could have broken out in any decade between Napoleon and Wilhelm II; equally, it need never have occurred.

In this masterly study, based on massive archival research, David Goldfrank argues that the European diplomatic roots of the war stretch far beyond the `Eastern Question' itself, and shows how the domestic concerns of the participants contributed to the outbreak of hostilities.
