Sebastopol and Balaclava shewing the position of the Allied Forces, 1854. Creator: John Dower
Sebastopol and Balaclava shewing the position of the Allied Forces, 1854. Crimean War. The severe and costly battles of Balaclava and Inkerman, and the approach of winter - which will necessarily delay, if not temporarily stop the active siege operations of the Allies - pointed out the necessity of putting the Camp of the latter into an efficient state of defence, by means of complete lines of circumvallation...The object of the two attacks was very different. That of Balaclava was to take the Allied armies in the rear, and cut off their communications with the sea at Balaclava...[The object of the Battle of Inkerman]...was not to take the Allies in the rear; but to attack and 'pound" them in their right flank - an operation which, if successfully carried out, would probably have ended in the rout and destruction of the whole Allied army'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
