| Description | The failure of the Gallipoli campaign was instantly blamed on a great untruth - that the War Office was unprepared. This book, incorporating information unavailable elsewhere, shows that in fact the WO and the Admiralty had amassed a huge amount of data. Aerial reconnaissance had played a part - even Lawrence of Arabia had done his bit! The War Office knew all about Greek plans to capture the peninsula and one plan was even Anglo-Greek. The authors examine all the intelligence and how it was used or ignored and in the process, in the words of the late Richard Holmes they 'illuminate a wildly beautiful landscape, which never fails to charm and shock me in equal measure.' | | Release Date | 2005 | | Author | Peter Chasseaud Peter Doyle | | Format | Dimensions 15.2x24.0x3.3 cm 368 pages book | | Publisher | Spellmount | | Subject(s) | History / Military / General History / Wars & Conflicts / World War I |
