The Dardanelles Campaign was a significant military operation during the First World War, with its historic landing at Seddul Bahr on April 25th. The Allied forces made their way to the Gallipoli peninsula in Turkey, aiming to secure control of this strategic region. A map from 1919 by George Philip & Son Ltd shows the positions of both sides involved in this intense battle. One incident captured in "The Year 1915" depicts the fierce attack on Gallipoli, highlighting the bravery and determination of those involved. Another illustration from Hutchinson's book showcases the landing itself, emphasizing how amidst shot and shell, soldiers managed to reach the narrow beach at Gallipoli. Inside an Australian trench, troops can be seen enduring harsh conditions while fighting alongside their Anzac counterparts. This photograph from around 1920 provides a glimpse into life on the front lines during this grueling campaign. A detailed map dating back to 1916 reveals key locations within Gallipoli and Dardanelles that played crucial roles throughout the conflict. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding troop movements and strategies employed during this time. Another image displays ANZAC forces positioned along the Gallipoli peninsula in July 1915. Their presence demonstrates their commitment to securing victory despite facing formidable opposition. This campaign had far-reaching implications for all parties involved and left an indelible mark on history. Its significance is evident through various maps and illustrations that continue to shed light on this monumental chapter of warfare.
