In The Gallipoli Experience Reconsidered, World War I historian Peter Liddle reexamines the British military operation that ended in Allied defeat.
The Gallipoli Campaign is generally viewed as a disastrous failure of the First World War, inadequately redeemed by the heroism of the soldiers and sailors who were involved in the fighting. But before the first landings were made, the concept of a strike at the Dardanelles seemed to offer a short cut to victory in a war without prospect of end. The venture, and what was required of the men undertaking it—who were enduring heavy casualties—eminently deserve reconsideration. What fueled and what drained morale during the eight months of extraordinary human endeavor?
A balanced evaluation of the Gallipoli gamble, and of the political and military leadership, are the challenging tasks which Peter Liddle sets himself in his study of the campaign and the experience of the men who served in it.
