Download or read book The Crimean War written by Professor Andrew Lambert and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-07-28 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to every other book about the conflict Andrew Lambert's ground-breaking study The Crimean War: British Grand Strategy against Russia, 1853-1856 is neither an operational history of the armies in the Crimea, nor a study of the diplomacy of the conflict. The core concern is with grand strategy, the development and implementation of national policy and strategy. The key concepts are strategic, derived from the works of Carl von Clausewitz and Sir Julian Corbett, and the main focus is on naval, not military operations. This original approach rejected the 'Continentalist' orthodoxy that dominated contemporary writing about the history of war, reflecting an era when British security policy was dominated by Inner German Frontier, the British Army of the Rhine and Air Force Germany. Originally published in 1990 the book appeared just as the Cold War ended; the strategic landscape for Britain began shifting away from the continent, and new commitments were emerging that heralded a return to maritime strategy, as adumbrated in the defence policy papers of the 1990s. With a new introduction that contextualises the 1990 text and situates it in the developing historiography of the Crimean War the new edition makes this essential book available to a new generation of scholars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Crimean War was a conflict between the Russian Empire and an alliance of the French Empire, British Empire, Ottoman Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia. The war was part of a long-running contest between the major European powers for influence over territories of the declining Ottoman Empire. Most of the conflict took place on the Crimean Peninsula, but there were smaller campaigns in western Anatolia, the Caucasus, the Baltic Sea, the Pacific Ocean and the White Sea. The Crimean War is known for the logistical and tactical errors during the land campaign on both sides (the naval side saw a successful Allied campaign which eliminated most of the ships of the Russian Navy in the Black Sea). Nonetheless, it is sometimes considered to be one of the first modern wars as it introduced technical changes which affected the future course of warfare, including the first tactical use of railways and the electric telegraph. It is also famous for the work of Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole, who pioneered modern nursing practices while caring for wounded British soldiers. The war also led to the establishment of the Victoria Cross in 1856 (backdated to 1854), the British Army's first universal award for valor. The Crimean War was one of the first wars to be documented extensively in photographs. News correspondence reaching Britain from the Crimea was the first time the public were kept informed of the day-to-day realities of war. This unique collection of images will prove to be an invaluable resource for historians, students and all those interested in what was one of the most significant periods in British military history. Each picture will tell its own story, and will be fully captioned with historical detail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Excerpt: ...for serving us at London and at Paris with free hands; while we endeavoured to prove to him that an ostensible agreement with us would cause our adversaries to reflect, by depriving them of all hope of raising up the whole of Europe against us. Nevertheless, at the solemn moment, the King, without attending to the counsels of his minister, and following naturally the impulse of his own sentiment, started suddenly for Warsaw. At this interview nothing was put in writing. All that took place was an exchange of ideas and of personal assurances, recalling previous meetings at which the Emperor Nicholas had so often had occasion to employ his influence for the good of Germany and the union of his allies. Now it was our case that had to be considered, and the Emperor was in a position to reiterate to his august guests the solemn promises which were to reassure them as to the political views he was pursuing in the East. The King of Prussia showed himself convinced by the loyal word of the Emperor, and deeply sensible of his friendly assurances. But the predominance of interest over sentiments is one of the characteristic features of this epoch. Impossible to doubt those of King Frederick for his august ally! At every moment he renewed his assurances, now in his private correspondence, now in the language he held to our minister. But the acts of his Government were very different. There the influence of Baron Manteuffel predominated with that of the chambers, of the political parties, and of public opinion, all based on the interests of Prussia. These interests were not, perhaps, well understood. They sacrificed the future to the present. Political passions were largely mixed up with them. But what cannot be ignored is that, in fact, they...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winfried Baumgart's masterful history of the Crimean War has been expanded and fully updated to reflect advances made in the field since the book's first publication. It convincingly argues that if the war had continued after 1856, the First World War would have taken place 60 years earlier, but that fighting ultimately ceased because diplomacy never lost its control over the use of war as an instrument in power politics. With 19 images, 13 maps and additional tables as well as a brand new chapters on 'the medical services', this expanded and fully-updated 2nd edition explores * The origins and diplomacy of the Crimean War * The war aims and general attitudes of the belligerent powers (Russia, France, and Britain), non-belligerent German powers (Austria and Prussia) and a selected number of neutral powers, including the United States * The characteristics and capabilities of the armies involved * The nature of the fighting itself The Crimean War: 1853-1856 examines the conflict in both its Europe-wide and global contexts, moving beyond the five great European powers to consider the role and importance of smaller states and theatres of war that have otherwise been under-served. To this end, it looks at fighting on the Danube front, the Black Sea, the Baltic Sea, the Caucasian battlefield, as well as the White Sea and the Pacific, with final chapters devoted to the Paris peace congress of 1856, the end of the war and its legacy. This book remains the definitive study of one of the most important wars in modern history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject History of Europe - Modern Times, Absolutism, Industrialization, grade: A (=1,0), Vrije University Brussel (Vesalius College Brussels), course: British History of the 19th and 20th Centuries, language: English, abstract: Historians consider the Crimean War from 1854 to 1856 as the turning point in the politics of the great European powers in the 19th century. This research paper examines why and how this war happened and what the consequences were for Europe and especially for the foreign policy of Britain. It is driven by the thesis that the Crimean War was changing the policies of the European powers significantly to a new aggressive behaviour. Therefore it is divided into three chapters. The first chapter deals with the question why the Crimean War broke out and how Britain became involved. Chapter II discusses the main events in the war. It does not look only on Britain’s policies, but also focuses on Austria-Hungary which played a key role in the war. The third and last chapter shows how the war affected the policies of the European powers. Especially the impacts on the British Empire are pointed out. This research paper is based on a comprehensive bibliography containing primary and secondary sources and a scientific article on the topic. The majors works used for this paper are David Wetzel’s The Crimean War and Paul W. Schroeder’s Austria, Great Britain and the Crimean War. 1 David Wetzel. The Crimean War: A Diplomatic History. (New York: Columbia University Press, 1985), p. v. 2 Paul W. Schroeder. Austria, Great Britain and the Crimean War: The Destruction of the European Concert. (Ithaca and London: Cornell University Press, 1972), p. xi. 3 This research paper is written in the course „British History of the 19th and 20th Centuries” at Vesalius College Brussels. Therefore it will have a focus in all chapters on British opinion, policy and impacts of the British Empire.

DETAILS OP THE NEGOTIATIONS (1854). Austria. We have shown the general progress of the political negotiations of 1854. This summary can give but a feeble idea of the feverish activity of this decisive period of the Eastern crisis. It shows itself in the reports of our agents, from which we are about to quote some extracts. In speaking of Count Orloff's mission to Vienna, we have sufficiently shown the important phase of the negotiations which attaches itself to the plan of campaign which we had formed on the basis of Christian insurrections in Epirus, Thessaly, Montenegro, and Servia. Out of regard for Austria and to disarm Germany, whom she was drawing to act against us by putting forward those German frontier interests, which would be endangered by a rising of the Eastern Slavs, we had submitted to a great sacrifice. We had renounced the assistance of our co-religionists, our only allies in the war which was being declared against us, our only chance of restoring in our favour the balance of an unequal contest. This sacrifice we had frankly accepted, we honourably carried out. We had declared at Vienna that we would not touch Servia. Our agent had been recalled; all negotiations with the Servian Government for the enrolment of free soldiery had been broken off; a thousand of these volunteers ready to cross the Danube had received counter orders. Marshal Paskievitch had recalled our troops from Little Wallachia, and effected a concentrating movement to force the passage of the Lower Danube, and to tempt the fortune of battle on the only point of Turkish territory which remained open to us. This passage of the Danube had even taken the character of a rectification of our defensive position, which was endangered on its right...
