Recollections Of Gallipoli.
A collection of the haunting and often harrowing memories of 'The Boys Who Came Home'. . . Australian and New Zealand soldiers who returned from the devastating campaign at Gallipoli in April 1915.
With the numbers of veterans dwindling and many in frail health, it is important to discover why this should be so. Is it something to do with the nightmare of the campaign itself? Was the experience even more deeply horrible and terrifying than our generation will ever know? Or is it something less tangible, something related to that indefinable element - national character?
An evocative combination of the real stories and photos of some of the men who survived a living hell.
