I have just been in the redan, which exhibits a fearful scene. |
First, a rectangular earth enceinte with bastions at the corners was built, along with fosse, redan and ravelin. |
It was sad to see the number of the bravest of our men who had fallen under the redan. |
We could not hold the redan till the French had taken the Malakoff. |
The approaches to the Malakoff and the redan were not attended with greater peril. |
The repulse of the assailants at the redan did not save Sebastopol for the Russians. |
