Product Description

Journal of the Crimean War Research Society, January 2008

'One of the most original and thought-provoking books on the Crimean War to date ... He has shaken the foundations of "accepted knowledge" on the war ... Particularly intriguing are his tactical alternatives and analyses of the repercussions of various command decisions.' - Lawrence W. Crider, Editor.


Daily Telegraph, 23 January 1999

Hugh Small, in a masterly piece of historical detective work, convincingly demonstrates what all previous historians and biographers have overlooked - that Farr's revelation is essential to the understanding of Miss Nightingale's personality. Publicly lauded as a heroine, she now realised that her presence in Scutari had, by making it the focus of transport of the wounded back to Britain, contributed to the overcrowding that claimed so many lives. This is a compelling psychological portrait of a Very Eminent (and complex) Victorian.

5.0 out of 5 stars A refreshing new in-site to the Crimean War., 9 Mar 2008
By Keith Smith "wolvesman" (Oxfordshire UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having read books, old and modern,and contemporary manuscripts covering the Crimean War, I can honestly say that this book by Hugh Small is the most refreshing and thought provoking facility I have read for many years.
Many works from the earliest times after the war and onwards, are simply recycled official documents and news reports. This book whilst obviously drawing on original documents, gives many alternative views as to why circumstances happened and many new previously unchallenged views to the outcomes.
