From the publisher's website:
A highly illustrated account of an unexpected British victory in the Crimea.

On 5 November 1854 the Russians marched out of the besieged city of Sevastopol to throw off the allied British and French forces by mounting a joint attack with their troops from outside the city. As Patrick Mercer outlines, despite outnumbering their enemies five to one the Russians failed to achieve victory in what looked to be almost a foregone conclusion.

With maps, illustrations and profiles of the opposing commanders, this is a compact account of the third major action of the Crimean War (following Alma and Balaclava). Fought in heavy fog at Inkerman, the battle proved to be a testament to the skill and initiative of the individual men and officers of the British Army of the day.
