A rare official report on the Russo-Turkish war by a serving U.S. Army officer. The text's first 150pp. describe the Russian Army's equipment, administration, etc. The remainder of the text covers the course of the war from the concentration of the Russian Army in Roumania, the crossing of the Danube and early battles in Bulgaria, and later battles at Lovtcha, Gorni-Dubnik, Plevna, the drive across the Balkans and the defeat of the Turks at Shipka Pass. Greene also pays attention to the war's Eastern front in the Caucasus (Kars). The battle plans and maps are contained in the atlas volume, which has become particularly scarce.
