CLEARING CARDIGAN: (Volumes I & II) (Air Crash Report Series)

By Stephen Bloom

Wednesday 25th October 1854; tired, hungry soldiers of Lord Ragan's British expeditionary force awake to a chilly Russian morning only to hear Turkish guns firing down from the Causeway Heights at a massive Russian army advancing upon them and the British port of Balaclava. Five hours later and the British cavalry, under the command of the Earl of Cardigan, careered down the north plain right into the face of the Russian guns and cavalry gathered across the valley. To the astonishment of the Russian army (and no doubt Lord Raglan and staff) the Light Brigade, despite terrible losses, attacked the guns and fought gallantly against terrible odds before retreating to safety. But they had attacked the wrong guns in the wrong valley!
