The Dardanelles: Tragedy and Heroism

Few military campaigns have caused as much controversy as the Dardanelles/Gallipoli venture of 1915. On the sea Churchill’s Navy bombarded the Turkish forts but retired defeated. On land Kitchener’s soldiers struggled off the beaches to die in front of the Turkish lines.

‘The Dardanelles: Tragedy and Heroism’ is a must read for those who want to know how the major decisions of the campaign were really taken and who really made them.
