Gallipoli

"'Superb...Carlyon's writing is so vivid that you almost imagine yourself present. A stunning achievement'" -- Saul David Daily Telegraph "'Incisive, emotionally-charged and visceral...blends a real feel for the fighting soldier with a firm grasp of the strangely beautiful countryside which saw such a bewildering mix of tragedy, missed opportunity and wasted heroism. A hard-hitting and heart-breaking book'" -- Richard Holmes "'Carlyon is a gifted writer...his book deserves to take its place alongside other classic accounts of Gallipoli. He conveys the beauty of the place and its ugliness 90 years ago'" -- John Keegan Daily Telegraph "'The book of the year...the most stunning account of the Anzac boneyard'" -- Alan Ramsey Sydney Morning Herald "'A brilliantly managed narrative and remarkably even-handed...a superb account'" -- Trevor Royle Glasgow Herald
