Description
Walking Gallipoli offers a unique perspective on one of the most tragic events of World War I. This guidebook takes you on ten walks through the battlefields, from the beaches and fields of Helles to the precipitous heights of Anzac and the plains of Suvla.
Along the way, you'll encounter infamous locations such as Sedd-el Bahr, Krithia, Achi Baba, The Vineyard, Gully Ravine, Kereviz Dere, Lone Pine, The Nek, Chunuk Bair, Lala Baba, Chocolate Hill, Kidney Hill and Kiretch Tepe. Each of these features is set against a backdrop of haunting beauty and tragedy that still pervades the eastern Mediterranean peninsula.
With its narrative approach, Walking Gallipoli helps make sense of this complex and often misunderstood campaign. Whether you're a history buff, a walker, or simply someone interested in learning more about this pivotal moment in history, this book is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to explore the Gallipoli campaign on foot.
