Synopsis

From an Amazon review: It was the first book that I read and felt like I truly understood how things worked in foreign policy. There are people and they have an agenda. Sometimes that agenda can create a firestorm that leads to catastrophe upon catastrophe. Rich tells the story of how, or rather why, the Crimean War began and the countless times it could have been averted. That war began, much like another may soon, when countries squabbled about who would have the honor to protect a minority in a country that did not endanger that minority.
