Turner, Pierre (illustrator). (Subject: Osprey: Men-at-Arms) In 1854 the British Army was committed to its first major war against a European power since 1815. The expeditionary force, or 'Army of the East', was despatched to Turkey nominally to support the Ottoman Empire in its war with Russia, but in reality, in alliance with France and later Sardinia, to check Russian ambitions for an outlet to the Mediterranean. Despite many failures in the conduct of operations and administration, the war was won in two years and Russian designs on the Balkans and the Levant were thwarted for two decades.
