Question by kidnapkid: Looking for books about Kornilov, Vladimir Alexeevich, naval officer.?
Kornilov, Vladimir Alexeevich (1806-1854), naval officer, promoted to the rank of vice-admiral in 1852. He participated in the Russo-Turkish war of 1828-29. In 1849, he was appointed chief of staff, and in 1851, he became chief commander of the Black Sea Navy. During the Crimean War (1853-1856), he was one of the officers in charge of Sevastopol’s defense, where he was killed in action (1854).
Are there any books on him? Biography, his memoirs maybe. Compilation of his letters? Anything at all that tells the story of this man? Come on Professors. Hook a girl up. I’m super interested in his navel career, who his was ect… Not just some stupid blip in the internet, but a real book.
