Dardanelles Dilemma: The Story of the Naval Operations

In his vivid writing style, Keble Chatterton gives a full and well-illustrated history of a naval operation that was plagued by inept planning and command.A valuable source for those interested in the naval and seafaring aspect of the attempt to knock Germany's ally, Turkey, out of World War I, originally published in 1935, this is an authentic account that uses Official records with officers' spoken accounts and their personal diaries. These give the modern reader a detailed picture, impossible to gather today, due to the passage of time that places it no longer within living memory.
