Summary

The book investigates aspects not often covered fully in works on Gallipoli, including treatment of the sick and wounded, the plight of prisoners of war, and the place occupied by Australian issues in the wartime port-mortem on the campaign, the Dardanelles Commission of 1916-17. It also deals with origin of Anzac Day and the place of Gallipoli in the Australian ethos.
