'From Gallipoli to D-Day: British Empire Armies and Amphibious Operations 1915-44' - Gary Sheffield : Gallipoli to D-Day
27 Jan

Gary needs no introduction to members of  the Thames Valley Branch (of which he is a member). In his talk he will  argue that the Gallipoli Campaign was not, as it is often regarded, a great missed opportunity to shorten the Great War, but that conditions on the Gallipoli Peninsula were even more unfavourable than those on the Western Front, and that the methods that  emerged to break the deadlock in France did not, and could not, evolve in Gallipoli.
