Readers who are keen to broaden their understanding of the Crimean War and of the British army of the period will gain a critical insight through the variety of books we publish on the subject.
Memoirs and letters written by soldiers who took part provide graphic first-hand accounts of the campaign, and biographies and reassessments of key battles are essential reading for students of the Crimea and of nineteenth-century warfare in general.

I really enjoyed getting to learn about other nurses around the time of Florence Nightingale. The research was everything that I was looking for and enjoyed how everything that I wanted about this. Louise Wyatt has a strong writing style and was glad I got to read this.

Highlight: 'If you are painting up Crimean War armies, this is a marvelous collection of imagery and uniform descriptions of all the major players. If you are going to put on a wargame, you'll need a different book for the units and the number of troops per unit for any particular battle.'

Transcribed, edited and annotated by Michael Springman, "Sharpshooter in the Crimea: The Letters of the Captain Gerald Goodlake VC 1854-56" provides a unique, informative, and fascinating perspective on the British forces engaged in the Crimean conflict. While very highly recommended as a core addition to 19th Century British Military History collections in general, and the Crimean War in particular.
