The Gallipoli campaign is one of the key stories in Australian history. The date that the Australians and New Zealanders landed on the Gallipoli peninsula during World War I has been adopted as our national day of war remembrance - Anzac Day.

But there was more to Gallipoli than the famous beach landing. Before any soldiers stepped on Turkish soil there was a mighty naval battle. After the landing on 25 April 1915 there followed eight months of intense fighting that saw many examples of great courage, humour and tragedy.

This book tells the complete story of Gallipoli - from the initial planning to the final evacuation. It answers questions about what happened before and during the months of fighting: Why fight at Gallipoli of all places? Why did the naval attack fail? What were Australians and New Zealanders doing so far from home? And why is a campaign that ended in defeat commemorated unlike any other?

'Gallipoli' includes faithful illustrations, maps, original photographs of the campaign, eyewitness accounts and describes what life was like for the average "Anzac" in the trenches.
