Gallipoli 1915 presents a new look at the old legend of Anzac - an account of how ordinary blokes from many different countries coped in extraordinary circumstances not only in battle but back in the trenches. These men, whose "fingers were too frozen to pull the trigger", buried their best mates, slept in holes in the ground and struggled with lice infested clothes.
This book presents a remarkable and absorbing series of photographs (over 300) from Australia's major archival collections, many previously unseen. These images often taken by the soldiers themselves, combined with illustrations created for the metropolitan newspapers, were the images responsible for creating the public memory of Gallipoli back in Australia.
