The attempt to seize the Dardanelles, capture Constatinople and knock Turkey out of the war has been portrayed as the one imaginative strategy of the First Wolrd War. But, as Peter Hart convincingly argues, the campaign was not only a catastrophe from the first landings, when the seas ran red with blood, but a disastrously bad idea generated by muddled thinking that could never succeed.
Drawing on unpublished personal accounts by individuals at all levels and from all sides - not only from Britain, Australia and New Zealand, but unusually from Turkey and France too - Hart combines his trademark eye for vivid personal stories with a strong narrative to create a fascinating new history of this epic tragedy.
