About The People Who Went To War.

Many books have been written about the battles
of Gallipoli; the men who went to war and what
they faced, the letters, and the tears of those left
behind. But this is a book about Gallipoli, the place,
and what happened on Gallipoli Beach from April
- December 1915. With beautiful and painterly
illustrations by Bruce Whatley this is a book that
explores the beach where the battles took place. In
focusing on the actual place of war, the book will
also examine many other aspects of WW1, from the
soldiers and the conditions they fought in, to the
civilians at home. This is more than a book about
ANZACS; this is a book about Gallipoli and for all of
the nationalities who fought at that cove, no matter
what side they were on.
