Item description from seller

A very clean copy. Bruce Scates is a study of how Australians and New Zealanders have travelled back to the Gallipoli battlefields from the 1920s through to the early twenty‑first century. Scates follows the experiences of families searching for the graves of lost soldiers, veterans returning to the places where they fought, and younger travellers who visit Gallipoli as part of a modern rite of passage. He blends archival research with interviews and personal accounts to show how these journeys shape national memory and identity. The book explores how the meaning of Gallipoli has changed over time, shifting from private grief to public commemoration and eventually to a major cultural pilgrimage.
