Crimean War Research Society

Scaling the Heights of the Alma; The Charge of the Light Brigade; the Soldier's Battle; Florence Nightingale; the Fall of Sevastopol; the incompetence of those in command; the endurance of the ordinary soldier; the Great Storm; the political wrangles in Constantinople, Vienna, Paris and London; the newspaper reporting and the new-fangled telegraph; the uniforms and the arms; the soldiers, sailors, camp-followers, spectators, businessmen and politicians; the effect on the military, industry and the man in the street; all of these and more are examined by the Crimean War Research Society.

Membership of the Society gives you access to hundreds of other researchers and students of the period; each with their own specialist interests and knowledge. Many are keen to assist in the researches of others, knowing that it might soon be their turn to be faced with an apparently insoluble problem. When you have joined the Society we hope you will also sign up for our online Members' Area to take advantage of our database of special interests and help offered. The Society is proud to number many leading historians amongst its members, and to publish their articles in the War Correspondent, our quarterly journal.
