What are some good books on the Crimean War?

by Andrew9623

I'm basically looking for some books that will familiarize me with the main events of the war, so nothing too specialized is necessary, thanks in advance!

The Crimean War: A History by Orlando Figes is the only book on the Crimean War that I've read. Figes, who is Professor of History at Birkbeck College, University of London, has also appeared on the BBC's In Our Time podcast as a guest in a discussion on the assassination of Tsar Alexander II. The book itself is well sourced and well written.
