November 27, 1854
NEW YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, New York City, November 27, 1854

* The Charge of the Light Brigade
* Crimean War
* Lord Tennyson


Pages 5 & 6 contain a great wealth on the Crimean War, with pg. 5 heads:

* Sevastopol Not Taken
* Repeated Sanguinary Battles
* Victory Claimed by both Sides

and more (see).

Total coverage is about 5 1/2 columns.

Page 6 contains the reports of the battle of October 25, the date of  the famous "charge of the Light Brigade" made famous by the poem of the same name by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Would make a great companion piece for someone who appreciates the connection between literature and historic events.

The photos below show portions of the articles on the battle and those related to it.

Other news of the day throughout.

Complete in 8 pgs., never-trimmed margins, very nice condition.
