War - What a waste
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is an excellent and readable book about this campaign and war in general. The book is not a light read and does require some concentration to understand what is happening during certain battles described. However it is well worth the effort for anybody who wants to understand the campaign. Probably best read in conjunction with Alan Mooreheads and Les Carylons books on the same subject.
THE book on Gallipoli
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Written partly in response to what the author felt were mistakes in the Alan Moorhead book (which many regarded as the definitive book on the campaign), this is in my opinion THE book on this complicated and for many Australians, still very emotive subject.Unlike other books on the subject this book presents us with both sides of the picture and finally gives both the Turk leadership and common soldier the respect they deserve.This is a real war book that does not flinch from telling it like it is and to me the wonder is that men could endure such horror at all.
