Description
 
Gallipoli has for 90 years been a symbol of Australia's emergence to nationhood. The audacious gallantry of young Australians storming across the beach at Anzac Cove and then climbing up the forbidding cliffs and ridges is a tale worth telling time and time again. In this encyclopedia on the ill-fated Gallipoli campaign of 1915, the main focus is on Australians, both famous and unknown. The book contains over 1000 entries, including many hundreds of personal entries covering the personalities of the campaign, by they British, French, Turkish, German, New Zealand or Australian. The Origins of the Campaign, and the main battles and action are also described, as are the many geographical features and war cemeteries. Profusely illustrated with photos and maps, and with all entries cross-referenced to aid the reader, the Gallipoli Encyclopedia is an invaluable aid for readers seeking a greater understanding of the role the AIF played at the Dardanelles and why Gallipoli has had such a lasting impact on subsequent generations......CONTENTS: Foreward, Peter Ainslie OHM - Preface - A Chronology of the Gallipoli Campaign - Abbreviations - A-Z Entries - APPENDIX: 1/ Allied Order of battle, 25 April 1915 - 2/ Allied Order of Battle, August/September 1915 - 3/ Australian MEF Casualties by Units 4/ Victoria Crosses Awarded for the Dardanelles Campaign - 5/ CBs awarded for Gallipoli 6/ KCMG/CMGs awarded for Gallipoli - 7/ Distinguished service orders awarded for Gallipoli - 8/ Military Crosses awarded for Galliopli - 9/ Distinguished Conduct Medals awarded for Gallipoli - 10/ Military Medals Awarded for Gallipoli - 11/ Nursing Service awards for Gallipoli - 12/ Foreign awards for Gallipoli - Bibliography - Maps: the Gallipoli Peninsula, Southern Anzac Sector, Australian Positions at Anzac, Second battle at Krithia, The landing of the Third Brigade - Lone Pine Trenches - Suvla
