Sinopsis

On Land and Sea at the Dardanelles is a first-hand account of the Gallipoli Campaign of World War I, written by Thomas Charles Bridges. Bridges was a member of the Royal Navy and served as a lieutenant on the HMS Euryalus during the campaign. The book provides a detailed and personal perspective on the events that took place during the campaign, including the naval bombardment of the Dardanelles, the landings at Cape Helles and Anzac Cove, and the subsequent battles that took place on the peninsula. Bridges describes the harsh conditions faced by the soldiers and sailors, including the extreme heat, lack of food and water, and constant danger from enemy fire. He also offers insights into the tactics and strategies employed by the Allied forces, as well as the challenges they faced in trying to defeat the Ottoman Empire. On Land and Sea at the Dardanelles is a valuable historical document that offers a unique perspective on one of the most significant military campaigns of the 20th century.It was the darkness that foiled him--this and the eel-like struggles of his adversary. At last, in desperation, he let go with his right hand, and drove his fist at the other?s head. He missed his face, but hit him somewhere, for he heard his skull rap on the floor, while the knife flew out of his hand, and tinkled away across the cement floor.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
