Unpublished sources and archival material can still shed fresh light upon the
history of the evacuation of the Serbian Army and civilian refugees from the
Albanian coast in 1915-1916. Among them are reports to the British Admiralty
written in 1915 and 1916 by the commander of the British Adriatic Squadron,
Rear Admiral Cecil Fiennes Thursby. These documents deposited in the
National Archives in Kew Gardens have never been used in reconstructing the
evacuation operation. Written on an almost daily basis, Thursby?s reports of
1915 and 1916 constitute a unique source not only for the history of the
evacuation of Serbs but also for the history of the South-East Europe in the
Great War.
