A Dusty Tomes Audio BookIn Cooperation with Spoken Realms The Russo-Turkish War of 1877 by Major F. Maurice Special Campaign Series No. 2 published by Swan Sonnenschein 1905. Publisher’s Preface to the Series: The “Special Campaign” series deals with the history of the war in its technical aspect, and the text of each volume is interspersed with strategic and tactical comments … subsequent volumes will deal with those campaigns of the nineteenth century that present features of exceptional military interest. It is hoped that this series will not only be useful for examination purposes but may form the nucleus of an interesting library for military students. From the Author’s Preface: This small volume has no pretensions to be a history of the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–8. It deals merely with the strategy and major tactics of the decisive portion of the campaign in Europe. The Author—Major-General. Sir Frederick Barton Maurice (1871–1951) was with the Sherwood Foresters in the 2nd Boer War. In WWI, he was Director of Military Operations for the Imperial General Staff in London.

Narrator’s Note: I read only as written. These old books were once solid sellers for bookmen of their time. They may neglect portions of society that are more emphasized now. It may be they are somewhat out of favor presently. I believe they can shed light on their times and ours. Loving obscure and remote literature, they are a distinct pleasure for me to read to you. These turn out to be distant and unknown only so long as they remain unread, or unheard. Thank you.
