Ghazi Osman Pasha; or, The Defence of Plevna

By Defne Jule Mutlu

Plevna, 1877.

An empire stands at the edge of decline. Against overwhelming Russian and Romanian forces, Ghazi Osman Pasha prepares to defend the Ottoman fortress of Plevna in one of the nineteenth century's most remarkable sieges.

Written entirely in blank verse, Ghazi Osman Pasha; or, The Defence of Plevna revives the tradition of historical verse drama, transforming military history into a meditation on courage, faith, honour, and leadership. Drawing upon historical events while imaginatively reconstructing councils of war and private conversations, it brings to life the soldiers, commanders, and civilians whose choices shaped the course of history.

For readers of historical drama, military history, and classical verse.
