Nakhimov remains a celebrated Russian naval name, including its use for a Kirov-class cruiser undergoing an exceptionally long refit. Adolphus Slade left a different legacy through detailed works on maritime states, navies, Turkey, and the Crimean War. His service inside the Ottoman naval establishment gave him firsthand knowledge of the institutions and events he described. That access and his strong concern for accurate detail make those writings useful accounts of the period.
