Focusing on the Eastern Crisis of 1875-78, this book traces the relations-official and unofficial-between Russia and the Serbian people during the heyday of Russian Pan-Slavism. The author shows that there can be no doubt about the close ties between Russian Pan-Slavism and the Serbian nationalist movement. Events led to revolts against Turkish rule in Bosnia and Hercegovina in the 1870s, a declaration of war by Serbia in 1875, and the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-78, followed by Austrian occupation of Bosnia in the face of armed resistance.
