Sebastopol by graf Leo Tolstoy
"Sebastopol" by graf Leo Tolstoy is a collection of three short stories published in 1855. Based on Tolstoy's firsthand experiences during the siege of Sevastopol in Crimea, these sketches offer vivid glimpses into wartime life. Through hospital tours, psychological examinations of heroism and vanity, and the stories of two brothers fighting for Russia, Tolstoy captures the brutal realities of the conflict. These early works later formed the foundation for episodes in his
masterpiece, "War and Peace." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
