The Origins of the Crimean War Zusammenfassung

The Origins of the Crimean War David M. Goldfrank

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.

' One need only say here that [The conclusions] make stimulating reading - like the book itself, which is now the best we have on the subject.' The Journal of Military History
