BIBLIOGRAPHY This Bibliography Consists Largely of Published

BIBLIOGRAPHY This bibliography consists largely of published personal narratives and other cited documentary materials relating especially to the generals serving France in the Crimea. The list is already over-long and to attempt more inclusive coverage seemed both unwise and undesirable. Thus many standard works and a vast amount of periodical literature on various aspects of the Second Empire have been omitted. The same is true of much of the material on diplomacy which I have evaluated elsewhere. The plight of Britain's army during the winter of 1854-1855 is the subject of many investigations and reports not included below; and, of course, such titles as Hansard's Parliamentary Debates and a host historical bibliographies might also have been added.
