Discover the remarkable history of the Gallipoli Campaign...
Free BONUS Inside!

The Gallipoli Campaign is known as one of the worst blunders committed by the Allied forces during the First World War. Despite being first thought up long before the beginning of the war, it was ultimately a hastily arranged campaign that the British hoped would knock the Ottoman Empire—one of the Central Powers—out of the war and slow the German war machine. With Germany finding success on every front, the Allies were desperate for new ideas.

It was Winston Churchill’s enthusiasm that encouraged the British War Council to give the campaign the green light, yet he would later lament the timing. Although it was a bold plan, a myriad of factors conspired to make Gallipoli one of the most futile operations of the war. Nevertheless, the lives lost from battles fought there would go on to echo throughout modern history. Turks, Australians, and New Zealanders, on the battleground and at home, would reconsider their nations’ place within their respective empires in the aftermath. In this way, the slaughter at Gallipoli would lead to the creation of new national identities.

    As well as the ANZACs there were French, South Africans, Indians, and Newfoundlanders and about 12.000 Irish - I hope it covers them too

    My grandfather was wounded during this campaign. Fighting then moved to Gaza, where he lost a leg and ended up in a mortuary - saved by one young nurse who noticed his eye twitch.

    How sad that the fighting’s still going on in Gaza more than a hundred years later.

    Thanks for posting. Currently reading a couple of books on the light horse brigade and battle of The Nek. Conditions were pretty harrowing for these guys with the heat, bodies, illness and swarms of flies.

    ‘Gallipoli’ on Amazon is well worth a watch if you have not seen the series.

    I haven't seen the series and will check it out, but I was educated in Turkey, and it's one of the core subjects in schools like Shakespeare, Mice and Men, etc..
    Obviously, it's one of if not the most significant events in Turkey's history.

    Hopefully it doesn't just concentrate on the tired trope of "Stuffy English toffs ordering good salt of the earth ANZAC lads to their deaths with zero respect for them".

    Yes I get that was part of it, but countless English poor people with zero real stake in "the Empire" died too. Plus some of the upper class leadership were not necessarily English.

    What about the Lancashire Landings and many other aspects? What about the French contribution?.

    Or the bizarre fact that some of the ships used by British commonwealth forces ended up getting sold to German scrappage firms straight after WW1?.
