Concluding the three-part documentary series about the 1853-6 war in the Crimea. The war ended shortly after the bloody battle of Tchernaya and, following over 300 days of siege, the fall of Sebastopol. It left one million dead, a victorious Britain building her global empire, the French army decimated and the defeated Russian tsar facing reform.

Overview
The devastating details of a long ago war are eloquently presented in this documentary. "The Crimean War" is a well-researched look into the conflict that shook Europe during the years 1853-56. The bloody conflict that pitted Russia against a large European coalition is shown here to be part of a chain of long-held antagonisms that continue to this day. Perhaps of all the things we remember of this confrontation, the only positive aspect that emerges is the appearance of Florence Nightingale.
