Picking up from Volume I in July 1915, this unusually outspoken and meticulously detailed diary, backed up with official dispatches, sets out Hamilton’s defense of his conduct in the ill-fated Gallipoli campaign. Hamilton pulls no punches in his portrait of a military hierarchy shot through with incompetence—despite his own position at its apex. In his introduction he states, “There is nothing certain about war except that one side won’t win.”

Over de auteur
Sir Ian Hamilton (1853-1947) was the British general in command of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force during the Battle of Gallipoli, which took place in Turkey from April 1915 to January 1916. It resulted in the evacuation of allied troops in the face of stiff Turkish resistance; the defeat ended Hamilton’s military career.
