Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Thus. A very clean copy. "Nothing can alter what happened now: Anzac stood and still stands for reckless valour in a good cause, for enterprise, resourcefulness, fidelity, comradeship and endurance that will never admit defeat." - World War I correspondent Charles Bean. The Gallipoli campaign of 1915 was a series of deadly battles followed by a brilliantly executed retreat. In just eight months, more than 11,000 Australians and New Zealanders died 'for the glory of Empire'. GALLIPOLI: UNTOLD STORIES provides a day-by-day review of these defining events from the perspective of Charles Bean, Australia's official war correspondent and Sydney Morning Herald journalist. The entries are supported by his private diaries and newspaper reports. The immediacy of his testimony is illustrated by graphic and rarely seen photographs taken by Age photographer Phillip Schuler. There are also precious accounts of daily life at war, collected in an exhaustive seach for letters, diaries and memorabilia from the families of the young Anzac soldiers who served so gallantly. GALLIPOLI: UNTOLD STORIES takes the reader deep into the thick of the campaign.Through these gripping words and images we can consider again what Gallipoli meant for the nation in 1915 and what it continues to mean to us today.
