Download or read book Gallipoli Letters, 1912-1915 written by Fikret Yılmaz and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the day the Gallipoli Anzac Landings occurred, that is, on April 25, 1915, Captain Yusuf Kenan Bey was killed fighting against the invading forces. He was 34 years old when he died and left a 28 year old wife and two children behind. Because Captain Yusuf Kenan was among a small group of Ottoman officers who had been defending Gallipoli and the Dardanelles Straits between 1912-1915, his letters and their replies, first and foremost written to his wife and other family members and acquaintances, provide us a unique glimpse into Ottoman family life during wartime, and the way war affected the lives of those on the home front. This book attempts to uncover the war's impact both on and off the battlefront through an examination of the correspondence between Captain, Yusuf Kenan, his wife Zehra and their family members and close acquaintances. The original letters and their transcriptions are included in it as they are the foundation of this study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The letters that follow are those of a young painter who was at the front from September [1914] till the beginning of April [1915]; at the latter date he was missing in one of the battles of the Argonne. Are we to speak of him in the present tense or in the past? We know not: since the day when the last mud-stained paper reached them, announcing the attack in which he was to vanish, what a close weight of silence for those who during eight months lived upon these almost daily letters! But for how many women, how many mothers, is a grief like this to-day a common lot!"

Book Synopsis The Gallipoli Letter by : Sir Keith Arthur Murdoch
Download or read book The Gallipoli Letter written by Sir Keith Arthur Murdoch and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vivid, charged and emotional letter that changed the course of the Gallipoli campaign. In September 1915, Keith Murdoch, then a young war journalist, wrote an 8000 word letter to the Prime Minister, Andrew Fisher. The Gallipoli Letter, as it came to be known, changed the course of the Gallipoli campaign. The letter, protesting against the conduct of the campaign and describing conditions at the front, is both intimate and conversational: 'I shall talk to you as if you were by my side ...' It is also at times angry, passionate, vivid and very moving: 'Then in the early hours came the landing, when the life of man is at its lowest.' At times, it is simply heartbreaking: 'The heroic Fourth Brigade was reduced in three days' fighting to little more than 1000 strong. You will be glad to know that the men died well.' The letter changed the course of the campaign: Hamilton, the general in charge of the campaign, was sent home, and the Allies were withdrawn in December of the same year. The Gallipoli Letter is a wholly moving and inspiring document. It speaks directly to us about war, our history and the indomitable Australian spirit. Accessible and compelling, it should be read by everyone: students, historians, military history buffs, school children and readers in general. It is a vital part of our history and the enduring ANZAC legend.

Download or read book Echoes of Gallipoli written by Lieutenant-Colonel Terry Kinloch MNZM and published by Exisle Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The battles on Gallipoli in 1915 were crucial in making New Zealand the nation it is today. The huge sacrifice of life has affected the country for generations, and our annual formal remembrances on Anzac Day have become increasingly important. It is twenty years since the full story of Gallipoli was last told in book form. Now a new book will add significantly to our understanding of the events of 1915 on the Gallipoli penisula.Terry Kinloch tells the story with the help of members of the New Zealand Mounted Rifles Brigade, who emerged from Gallipoli battered and depleted, but with reputations enhanced. He has thoroughly researched their letters and diaries, and cleverly interspersed their eyewitness comments into his text. The result is a book that reads with the immediacy of actually being there. It is a fresh way of telling history, and one that is sure to find a response among New Zealanders today. The full story is here: the call-up, the sea journey, camp in Egypt, the eventual arrival in Gallipoli, all the battles and skirmishes that were fought there, and finally the remarkable evacuation several months later.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In March 1915, a young French artist-turned soldier went missing in action.

This powerful volume was for many years out of print, but this new edition corrects that unhappy situation and provides an English speaking readership with a rare and much needed insight into what it meant to experience the Great War from the sharp end during the desperate struggles of the French Army fighting for its survival in 1914 and 1915.Originally published by Constable & Co., London in 1917 with a preface by Andr Chevrillon, this evocative and moving primary source volume is essential reading for anyone who seeks to understand the role of the French army in the opening battles of the Great War.
Download or read book Gallipoli 1915 written by Joseph Murray and published by Silvertail Books. This book was released on 2015-02-27 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in 1915, the Gallipoli campaign was intended to knock the Turkish Empire out of the First World War and open a supply route to Russia, strengthening the allies immeasurably in the process. But thanks to the military incompetence of the higher commands, it ended in tragedy and unimaginable suffering, as the battle turned into a war of nerves largely played out in the hellish setting of the tunnels constantly being built by either side. The human cost was vast, with more than 50,000 Allied soldiers losing their lives, and it became known as the most controversial action of the war. Joseph Murray was one of the 400,000 British and Empire troops who took part and along with his comrades from the UK, Australia and New Zealand, showed extraordinary heroism and courage in the face of terrible hardship and danger. GALLIPOLI 1915 is his account of the campaign. Based on a diary Murray kept at the time and his later letters home, this riveting and detailed true story of a young man at war serves as a stunning tribute to the bravery shown by Murray and his fellow soldiers, and to the sacrifices they made in the name of their country.
