Synopsis

Under The Red Crescent: Adventures Of An English Surgeon With The Turkish Army At Plevna And Erzeroum, 1877-1878 is a memoir written by Charles Snodgrass Ryan in 1897. The book is a first-hand account of Ryan's experiences as a surgeon with the Turkish army during the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878. The book is divided into two parts, the first part covering Ryan's experiences at Plevna, where he was stationed during the siege of the city by the Russian army. The second part covers Ryan's experiences at Erzeroum, where he was stationed during the Russian invasion of the Ottoman Empire. The book provides a detailed and vivid account of the conditions of war, including the harsh living conditions, the suffering of the wounded, and the challenges of providing medical care in a war zone. Ryan also provides insight into the cultural differences between the British and Turkish armies, as well as the complex political situation of the time. Overall, Under The Red Crescent is a fascinating and informative account of one man's experiences during a pivotal moment in history. The book provides a unique perspective on the Russo-Turkish War and the role of the Turkish army, as well as the challenges faced by medical professionals in wartime.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
