My Gallipoli
Ruth Starke & Robert Hannaford

From the shores of Anzac Cove to the heights of Chunuk Bair, from Cape Helles to Gurkha Bluff, the Gallipoli Peninsula was the place where thousands of men from sixteen nations fought, suffered, endured or died during the eight months of occupation in 1915. For each of them, their families and their nurses, Gallipoli meant something different. Their voices emerge from the landscape and across the decades with stories of courage, valour, despair and loss.

The strong atmospheric artwork of renowned artist, Robert Hannaford is a perfect complement to Starke's sweeping text.
