His 1979 work on
Benjamin Disraeli's policy during the
Great Eastern Crisis of 1875–78 (Britain and the Eastern Question) was called the "authoritative account" by
M. R. D. Foot[4] and a "masterly achievement" by
John Vincent.[5] According to
Richard Shannon, Millman "challenges the
Seton-Watsonian tradition and boldly essays to restore the credibility of Disraeli's attempt to reassert the Palmerstonian tradition of maintaining the independence and integrity of the Ottoman Empire as a capital British interest".[2]
