In the summer of 1854, while the world's attention was focused on events in the Crimea, a combined British and French naval squadron was sailing towards the isolated Russian port of Petropavlovsk on the Kamchatka Peninsula. What should have been a straightforward victory for the overwhelmingly superior Allied fleet instead became a humiliating disaster that the Admiralty would later describe as "that melancholy failure at Petropavlovsk."
