Alan Moorehead
Gallipoli
New York: Harper & Brothers, 1956.
First printing.
A very good copy of Moorehead's classic account, examining the muddled attempts to establish a beachhead on the Turkish coast in 1915.
What should have been an easy victory became a nightmare that claimed 250,000 Allied lives and countless Turkish deaths, while leaders on both sides vacillated and communication was non-existant.
Hardcover with jacket, showing slight darkening to edges.
