The Gallipoli Letter

The Gallipoli Letter was written by Keith Murdoch in 1915. The letter was addressed to Prime Minister Andrew Fisher. Murdoch was a journalist and friend of Fisher and Murdoch was asked to tell Fisher what was really happening with the Australian soldiers at Gallipoli. The introduction in the book gives comprehensive information about the campaign, which puts the letter in context. The soldiers were under the control of the British. Fisher was excluded and received little "official" information. Anyone, like me, with an interest in this historical event will want to read this. 31/2/5
