When Australian troops stormed ashore in the pre-dawn darkness of April 25th 1915, it was the culmination of one of the most complex and daunting operations in the history of warfare the seaborne assault of a heavily fortified shore, defended by a well prepared and forewarned enemy.
 

When Australian troops stormed ashore in the pre dawn darkness of April 25th 1915, it was the culmination of one of the most complex and daunting operations in the history of warfare. The risks were enormous, yet the Anzacs had been allowed to organise their own assault, and their ingenuity, intelligence gathering and willingness to do the unorthodox allowed them to fulfil the task they had been set by their commanders. Hugh Dolan, a senior intelligence officer in the Australian military has minutely re-examined the assault itself giving us a day by day account of the build up to the landing that shows a very different side to the Gallipoli story. Using a host of previously unpublished material and research he has produced a riveting work of narrative history that sheds a fresh light on the original Anzacs.
