Note 257 — Chapter VII · THE INVASION OF THE CRIMEA. (continued 2)
Reading edition
The battle which deprived us of our principal road, cost the Allies—
English, 40 Officers; 386 sergeants, rank and file; 426 total
French, 2 ” 50 ” ” 52 ”
Turks, 9 ” 250 ” ” 259 ”
Total, 737 men,
and 409 horses. The Russians lost some 600 men, of whom the greater number fell before the British Heavy cavalry. The latter suffered but little in that superb charge, though they had many casualties when shielding the recoil of the Light brigade (Our Veterans, etc., p. 255).
