Customer Reviews

glossy but unreliable - Rated 2/5
Having used this book on a recent trip to Gallipoli, despite being well produced and full of excellent photographs, we found the actual information both unreliable and inaccurate. Some of the directions proved misleading, and the map that came with the book had a large number of errors which gave us many problems: in particular the location of Lala Baba Cemetery which is not marked correctly. For a WW1 Battlefield that has few guidebooks this is a welcome addition, but the definitive one has yet to be written.


An outstanding overview of the Gallipoli peninsula battles - Rated 5/5
The Gallipoli campaign of 1915 has been forgotten by most British people but certainly not by Australians and New Zealanders. Yet it was an extraordinary campaign that underscores much of what went wrong in World War 1. There is also much myth surrounding the battles, especially in Australia. And this hasn't been helped by many of the books written on the subject. Many are clearly biased.

The Peace Park at Gallipoli is a remarkable place to visit but until recently guides to this palce have been few and of questionalble help. Holt's book fills this gap perfectly. In a word it is outstanding. It is very fair and very detailed. It covers the battles and memorials from the Turkish point of view as much as the Allies. There are loads of pictures and an excellent removable map.

Holt creates 5 itineraries that would suffice to give anyone a complete overview of every part of this campaign. Anyone contemplating a visit should regard this book as essential.

It is also mostly very accurate even in the small detail though forgetting Albert Jacka was a strange oversite.
