    About the book: 1956 / Russian-Turkish War (1877-1878) - a war between the Russian Empire and its allied Balkan states on the one hand and the Ottoman Empire on the other, caused by the rise of nationalist mood in the Balkans. The brutality with which the April Uprising in Bulgaria was suppressed aroused sympathy for the plight of Christians in the Ottoman Empire in Europe and especially in Russia. Attempts to improve the situation of Christians by peaceful means were thwarted by the stubborn reluctance of the Turks to make concessions to Europe, and in April 1877 Russia declared war on Turkey. Nikolai Ivanovich Belyaev’s book is dedicated to a detailed story about the Russian-Turkish War of 1877-1878. Numerous maps perfectly complement the text and explain the intentions of the parties.
