Gallipoli by John Masefield

John Masefield’s present book ‘Gallipoli’ was first published in the year 1916. This book is a detailed description of the American Australian war. “A little while ago, during a short visit to America, I was often questioned about the Dardanelles Campaign. People asked me why that attempt had been made, why it had been made in that particular manner, why other courses had not been taken, why this had been done and that either neglected or forgotten, and whether a little more persistence, here or there, would not have given us the victory.” -an excerpt
