The port of Balaclava was crucial in maintaining the supply lines for the Allied siege of Sevastapol in the Crimea. The Russian attack in October 1854 therefore posed a major threat to the survival of the Allied cause. This book examines in detail the crucial battle of Balaclava, including the attack on the redoubts; the action of "the thin red line" in which an assortment of about 700 British troops, some invalids, were abandoned by their Turkish allies; the subsequent charge of the Heavy Brigade; and the most legendary part of the battle: the infamous charge of the Light Brigade.
