damn the Dardanelles!
the agony of Gallipoli
john laffin What led to the failure of Gallipoli? Was the strategy to knock Turkey out of the War flawed? Or was the plan to open up a passage to Russia a tactical masterstroke confounded only by the incompetence of the field command? John Laffin in this publication attempts to reconcile the tragedy of Gallipoli with the Allied war aims and the outcome of the conflict. Using previously unpublished material, illustrations, maps and photographs and an extensive personal knowledge of the campaign theatre, Laffin constructs a critical analysis whose stated aim is "to explain the defeat, to apportion the blame, and to let the soldiers speak". 224 pp - hardback - Published 1989
