Here I am with a monument to that incredible of incredible Russian Writers Leo Tolstoy.  His profile here is as he appeared in 1854 as a Naval Lieutenant in the  Crimean War.  His "Stories of Sevastopol"  capture the essence of this conflict.  It is one the Russian Lost to the British, Austrian and others.  It put a damper on their fleet activities for ten years.  If you are ever in Sevastopol, be sure to visit Panorama.  It is so real that you can smell the gunpowder and blood!  Clara Barton was also in this war.  Nursing the wounded on all sides.  Tolstoy is Yana's favorite writer.
