EDITORS COMMENTS

The map showcases the approximate positions of General Stopford's Divisions on the night of August 7th, providing valuable insight into the intense battles that took place during this time. The Gallipoli peninsula became a significant battleground where allied forces from the British Empire, including Australia and New Zealand, clashed with the Turkish Ottoman Empire. This fierce conflict is vividly depicted within this image. Taken from "The Great World War - A History". Volume IV edited by Frank A Mumby, published by The Gresham Publishing Company Ltd in London around 1920, it offers an invaluable glimpse into one of history's most devastating wars.
