| Summary | "The War with Russia; Its Origin and Cause" by John Alfred Langford is a historical account written during the mid-19th century. The book focuses on the intricate political dynamics and causes that led to the conflict between Russia and Turkey, as well as the involvement of Britain and France regarding the war. Langford responds specifically to critiques from notable public figures, aiming to clarify and defend England's stance in the war while dissecting opposing arguments that deemed it unjust. In his work, Langford meticulously examines the claims made against the war, particularly those stated by J. Bright and others who argue that England was fighting against the rights of the Christian populations in the Ottoman Empire. Throughout the text, he outlines the actions and motives of Russia, asserting that the nation's historical pattern of aggression has precipitated the war. By analyzing key diplomatic events, military movements, and the underlying principles of the conflict, Langford argues that Russia's expansionist ambitions threaten not only Turkey but also the geopolitical stability of Europe. The book serves as a thorough defense of England's participation in the war, emphasizing a narrative of justice and necessity in opposing Russian imperialism.
