Launch Conference Leading the Immortals
About
This is the launch conference for the new book The Story of Lieutenant Colonel Hüseyin Avni, Commander of the 57th Regiment at Gallipoli by Hüseyin Avni Tanman and Ahmet YurttakalPeter Hart said about the book
“You can study campaign histories and personal accounts, but you know nothing until you have looked from the other side of the wire. This new account about Avni Bey helps open our eyes to the reality of the campaign; one the Allies were never going to win. We didn’t lose because of the incompetence of British politicians and generals; nor was it the terrain and logistical incoherence of the campaign. What really did it was the determined resistance of the Turkish soldiers, and I am delighted to have another book to enhance our understanding of their magnificent achievements at Gallipoli in 1915.”
You will all get a free copy of this brand new hardback book retailing at £30
