Russia and the Eastern question : army, government, and society : 1815-1833
"This volume examines the military and diplomatic policies of Russia, as it struggled with the Ottoman Empire for influence in the Balkans and the Caucasus. Based on extensive use of Russian archive sources, this volume makes a significant contribution to our understanding of issues such as the development of Russian military thought, the origins and conduct of the 1828-1829 Russo-Turkish War, the origins and conduct of the 1826-1828 Russo-Persian War, and the Treaty of Adrianople. It will be of interest to all those concerned with the historical background to the Crimean war and later episodes in the Eastern Question."--Jacket
