Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1922, war between Turkey and Britain was but hours away. A resistance army led by Mustafa Kemal had swept the Greeks from Anatolia and was now ready to march north to Constantinople and liberate the capital. But in its way stood a small British garrison at the Dardanelles. This affectionate account of the British Army at Chanak was written by a peripatetic Englishman, Percival James Bothwell, under the pseudonym 'Z'. He was branch secretary of the YMCA in Chanak.Bothwell's account was originally published as a slim paperback by S. Dirmikis & Son, Constantinople, probably in 1923. This modern edition is a faithful reproduction of the original text. It has been illustrated with contemporary photographs and two maps. Included as appendices are a biography of the author, two stories by Bothwell from the YMCA magazine, 'The Red Triangle', and orders of battle for British forces at Chanak.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - From 'fish-and-chip' civilian soldier to hard-baked 'old sweat': a private soldier's account of the Gallipoli Campaign, 1915.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Corporal Alec Riley served at Gallipoli in 1915 with the British 42nd (East Lancashire) Division. 'Four months of Gallipoli gave me four diseases and 12 months in Netley.'Riley chose the Royal Victoria Hospital for his convalescence because he wanted to know what a great military hospital was like, that knowledge recorded in a diary of his time at Netley.'I have tried, ' says Riley, 'to give some idea of life in one of the many wards, the various patients I met, our habits, amusements, hopes and fears.'Riley's journey was shared by thousands of First World War soldiers who left the front sick and broken, to embark on the slow road to recovery.The book is richly illustrated with rarely seen images and includes a concise history of the Royal Victoria Hospital.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'From a ground-floor room at the end of one block shone a light. It came from a canteen. I saw others were busy while I was lowering a pint of shandy. I was so dry that I could not taste it-I could only just feel it. We felt better. Where there was beer there was hope.'Alec Riley was a signaller in the British Army's 42nd (East Lancashire) Division. Egypt Diary 1914-1915 tells of the mobilisation of the division at the outbreak of war, and the territorials' eight-month-long period of training and garrison duty in Egypt prior to being deployed to Gallipoli. It brings to life the strange and exotic sights met by the Lancashire lads, most of whom had previously travelled no further than the annual camps held in North Wales.Written in Alec Riley's dry style, the diary relates with wit and humour the many fascinating experiences and events Riley and his comrades encountered. Interactions with Egyptian locals are interspersed with Riley's acute (and at times subversive) observations of his own officers. Desert marches, exercises and various mundane duties are recorded, as well as measures taken to guard canteens against Australian raiding parties.The book is lavishly illustrated with contemporary soldiers' photographs of Egypt and four specially-produced maps. The editors, Michael Crane and Bernard de Broglio, have added extensive footnotes and detailed biographies of almost 40 officers and men who come to life in Alec Riley's writings.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Written in 1915 while leading the 1/5th Manchester Regiment, Colonel Sir Henry Darlington's letters from Gallipoli are a commanding officer's firsthand account of leadership and endurance at Helles.Long considered one of the most valuable firsthand accounts of the Gallipoli campaign, original copies have become increasingly scarce since the publisher's remaining stock was destroyed during the London Blitz in December 1940.In this new and expanded edition, the editors, facilitated by the author's grandson, Hugh Darlington, have supplemented the original text with an illustrated biography, detailed maps and appendices that provide rich context on the battalion's campaign.The most valuable addition, however, is the wealth of previously unpublished photographs taken by the author himself. A keen photographer who carried his camera into the line at Gallipoli, these remarkable images from his personal album add a new dimension to a classic account.…
