This book is a broad comprehensive photographic essay regarding
surviving artefacts of the Crimean War, fought 150 years ago
between Russia and the combined power of Britain, France, Sardinia
and Turkey. The authors have spent nearly two years locating and
photographing artefacts in national museums, regimental museums,
and private collections throughout Great Britain and Ireland. Each
artefact is presented as a highly detailed colour photograph, shot
from various angles with the researcher in mind, coming alive from
the page to the reader. Each photographic image is accompanied by
detailed and informative text regarding physical properties,
history, and specific origin. The photographs are catalogued under
descriptive chapters introducing the British soldier's clothing,
accoutrements, necessaries, camp equipment, and weapons, and each
is accompanied by detailed and informative text regarding physical
properties, history, and specific origin of the item. This
definitive work will provide an invaluable resource for serious
military researchers and historians.
