Livre
2004 reprint by N & M Press (original 1894). SB. xi + 316pp with b/w illus and 4 maps A vividly topical eye-witness account of a key episode in the long struggle between Islam and Christendom. The author reported the 1877 war between the Russian and Ottoman Turk empires that resulted in a Russian victory and the establishment of Bulgaria after centuries of Turkish rule from both sides of the lines. Written some two decades later, this book gives an unsparing narrative of a war correspondentâ s war, complete with many fine - some of them gruesome - illustrations and battle maps showing the fall of Plevna. The tone and style of the book is that of a graphic Victorian journalist rather than an objective historian, but it is none the worse for that, and gives the reader a good idea of the endemic religious and ethnic hatreds that still trouble the Balkans to this very day.
