The Gallipoli Campaign of 1915 was a series of deadly battles. In just eight months, more than 11,000 Australian and New Zealanders died.

To commemorate the 90th anniversary of the ANZAC landing, this book tells the story through the private diaries and newspaper reports of war correspondent Charles Bean. Bean's misgivings about the campaign are reinforced by the graphic and rarely seen photographs taken by The Age photographer Phillip Schuler.

There are also precious stories from the front line, collected in an exhaustive search for letters, diaries and memorabilia from Australian families of Australian and New Zealand soldiers who served in Gallipoli. (back cover)
