In this section of Chapter 6, we look at Russia in the throes of its great coup - the Treaty of San Stefano, which was dictated to the Ottoman Empire in March 1878. The Treaty granted Russia extensive rights over the Turks, and Britain - Disraeli - simply could not allow it. British prestige was at stake, he declared. This time, interestingly enough, Disraeli found many who agreed with him, even if nobody seemed quite able to define what prestige actually was! That's where we come in history friend, so I hope you'll listen in!
