War's Cost and the Turkish Question in 1878 Debate
The historian cites four million deaths and vast misery from war, with direct costs of 340 million and enormous indirect losses, warning that Christian nations failed to achieve their aims. It argues war did not resolve the Eastern Question, Turkey’s reforms, or Russian influence, and condemns European arms race while urging a peaceful path and international jurisdiction to settle disputes. The piece ends urging British public opinion against a renewed Eastern war, dated November 24, 1878.
