Leo Tolstoy is a great Russian writer, philosopher and thinker. Sevastopol Stories is a cycle of three works based on the author's personal experience as a participant in the defense of Sevastopol (1854-1855) in the Crimean War. They depict the heroism of soldiers, the horrors of war, the life of a besieged city and the general, often senseless, brutality of military operations. The series is preceded by an article by historian Eugene Tarle. The collection also includes other stories about the war and about officer life: "Raid", "Logging", "Demoted", "How Russian soldiers die (Alarm)".
