The barracks at Scutari are said to be filled with troops already, and there is some chance of our being encamped. The town of Gallipoli, although stated in guide books to be a place of some importance and to contain 18,000 people, looks uninteresting enough from the straits; an D 34 GALLIPOLI. impression which a further acquaintance on shore does not remove. It is filthy in the extreme; the houses, with the exception of a few more respectable consular residences, mere sheds, arranged (as is customary) in streets or bazaars, pertaining to the different classes or trades. Huge stones alternate, with deep ruts filled with dust, and combine to render pedestrianism decidedly unpleasant. An old shell of a castle is a prominent feature in the foreground. Of course, great bustle was evident, arising from the traffic of the troops; the French influence...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crimean Diary and Letters of Lieut.-General Sir Charles Ash Windham, K. C. B: With Observations Upon His Services During the Indian Mutiny An article which appeared a short time ago in one of the leading weekly journals, also the suggestion of many friends, first prompted me to publish my late father's Crimean Correspondence and Extracts from his Diary. I thought that, as a sailor, I could not do justice to the subject, and my friend Major Hugh Pearse kindly undertook to edit the letters, and to him I return my warmest thanks. The veteran, Sir William Russell - and I take it, no higher Crimean authority exists - most kindly undertook to write the opening chapter; and I cannot find words to express how deeply touched I have been by the interest he has taken in the book. The letters are those of a man who occupied a very responsible position, and who had ample opportunities of forming a correct judgment. Naturally, I do not wish to enter into any personal controversy with regard to my father's conduct either in the Crimea or in India.

Download or read book The Eastern Question written by Karl Marx and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eastern Question: A Reprint of Letters Written 1853-1856 Dealing With the Events of the Crimean War Washington, has an interesting and special bearing upon the leaders written by Marx: "You see the Tribune has again appropriated a leader; this would be right enough, because it attracts special attention, if only K.M. were printed below it. I believe, too, that they would do this, if it were not against their rules and habits. And, after all, it doesn't harm you much either, for the careful reader can see that it wasn't written by the editorial staff... From personal knowledge we can state that many of Marx letters were used, and printed by the Tribune, as leaders, although Marx had originally written them as correspondence. Upon other occasions, he, of purpose, wrote articles which were intended to be leaders, and in these he naturally wrote in a somewhat different form from that used in his signed correspondence. In several cases where his correspondence has been turned into leaders, a few words of addition and interpolation have been written in by the American editors, to keep up journalistic appearances. (See, for example, pp. 188, 190, 222, and especially the end of p. 193.) Apparently also, on more than one occasion, ideas or actual passages from letters of Marx were used and written round by the American journalists. This has made the task of selection very difficult, and has certainly, in one case at least, led to the inclusion (see CI.) of an article, the major part of which could not have been written by Marx. Whilst there may be one or two authentic contributions of his that have been missed, we have designedly left out several of a purely technical military character. On the other hand, we have included certain military articles bearing very directly on the war. Most, if not all, of these were either written by Engels, or grew out of letters from him to Marx.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Lord Stratford in the Crimean War Great as Lord Stratford could show himself on such an emergency as this, his mind was one of those which never lose sight of detail. It was a brain of the nature of an elephant's trunk, capable of uprooting an oak and picking up a pin. Even during the war, the 'great as he was called, would not overlook the local shortcomings of the Turks.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crimea in 1854, and 1894 Last year, after revisiting the Crimea, I wrote some articles in a magazine' recalling incidents of forty years ago. These, considerably amplified, I now venture to submit to the Public. Memory in Youth cuts her track deeply and surely, and, while the Opinions formed then may be modified by Time and Experience, yet, as regards facts I have found but little to alter in revising my first impressions of our Great War. The habits of precision enforced in the Navy by the keeping of a log or journal, and my daily letters written to my mother, have assisted a naturally retentive memory, and I have had many letters from comrades of both Servnces m the trenches, expressing general concur rence in my statements.

This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From Head-Quarters, or the Realities of the War in the Crimea Once again the Author offers to the Public his narrative of the late War in the Crimea, but in a condensed form, which he hopes will render it more available for readers in general. In the Second Edition the Author found it necessary to introduce a notice defending various statements in his book which had been censured and contradicted, in the public journals and elsewhere, by Lieutenant - General Sir De Lacy Evans, Major - General the Earl of Cardigan, and vice-admiral Sir James Deans Dundas. He has thought it best, in the present instance, to notice these in turn as they occur. Certain passages have been omitted in this Edition which were considered unimportant; and, on the other hand, some few facts have been introduced, which, it is hoped, will not lessen the interest of the work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From the Black Sea: During the Crimean War, 1854-1855 These letters have lain on a shelf untouched and almost unthought of for many years, but, as is the habit of old men, I took them down recently to refresh my memory of the events in which I had taken part during the most stirring times of my earlier life. They interested me much, and I publish them thinking that perhaps they may also interest others. The earlier letters - that is, those previous to February, 185 5 - describe events occurring whilst I was in command of the Niger, or of the Sans pareil, and carrying out the ordinary duties of the service; but those of a later date were written whilst I was holding the position of Harbour Master at Balaklava or of Principal Agent of Transports.
