The War in the Herzegovina: Bashi-Bazouks leaving Baynaluka [Banja Luka] for Swina, from a sketch by one of our special artists, 1876. 'The insurgent leaders in the Herzegovina, having consulted with representative Christians from Bosnia, have resolved not to pay any regard to the Sultan's promises of reform, but to continue the conflict until the Turks are driven out...a smart engagement between the Turkish troops and a considerable body of insurgents - most of them Montenegrins - took place...The insurgents, after being completely beaten, fled to the mountains. We give...an Illustration of Bashi-Bazouks leaving their camp at Baynaluka to join the Nizams...Persians, Nubians, Albanians, and representatives of other Eastern nations besides Turkey figure among the Bashi-Bazouks...[pictured] marching out of camp with their band playing martial music of the most primitive nature'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
