Summary:

"Edward Erickson, in this perspective new study, concentrates on the Ottoman side of the campaign. He looks in detail at the Ottoman Army -- at its structure, tactics, and deployment -- and at the conduct of the commanders who served it so well. His pioneering work complements the extensive literature on other aspects of the Gallipoli Battle, in particular those accounts that have focused on the experience of the British, Australians, and New Zealanders"--Dust jacket.
