Gallipoli Diary, Volume 2

The attack is ready: every timetable fixed, every round counted. But on Gallipoli, Ian Hamilton knows that a few hours of surprise may matter more than the most careful plan.

In July 1915, on Imbros, the British commander waits as fighting rages across the water on the Gallipoli Peninsula. Lord Kitchener’s message is blunt: strike by surprise, but do not spend lives once the moment has passed; the Cabinet would rather see one great effort than a series of partial attacks. Hamilton weighs that counsel against the hard lessons of earlier landings, where troops, water and supplies could not reach the shore fast enough. Reinforcements are still coming, the target is not yet settled, and the battle can turn on what a commander cannot control. What will Hamilton do when the right moment comes?
