Turbulent 18th Century Dispatches From Petersburgh and London
Reports from March and early April describe Russian military moves along the Danube and in Moldavia, with troop concentrations, fortifications, and potential surrenders. Dispatches cite Count Panin and General de Panin, plus fleet actions and a shift of Turkish forces. News from London covers political maneuvers, treasury meetings, and societal tensions amid rumors of Britain’s conflict with the Grand Signor, while ports and consular postings in Madrid and Bombay are noted, along with ship arrivals and court appointments.
