Reviews

"In Jonathan King's "Gallipoli Diaries" we share the experiences of the diggers from day one ... It is a story that is spoken in the sometimes halting words of the soldiers and therein lies its power. There is much here to enlarge our understanding of the disastrous Gallipoli campaign - not least the appalling conditions in the trenches, the daily grind of water carrying, poor food, flies and death." --Christopher Bantick, "Books + Publishing"
