Item description from seller

On a map, the ancient military problem posed by the Hellespont is almost self evident. He who controls the Narrows, controls ship access between the Aegean Sea and the Sea of Marmara. That map appears ahead of the Prologue. Read more about : Gaba Tepe, Sedd-el-Bahr, Inner Forts, hand-grenades, bully-beef, trenches, Admiral Carden, Helles, Grand Fleet, V Beach, The Narrows, The Goliath, and Hunter-Weston's command. 384 pages of WWI military history. Plenty of b/w photos to amplify the text about the military and political stand-off. Cond : Paper wrapper is off-white with black lettering. Cover has a photo of a wounded soldier set into a campaign map. Spine fine. Colours bright. Pages toned. Minimal wear and soiling. No names nor marks. Excellent historical reference .

The little crowd and the boats on the beach were right under them and no one paid any ._._._. ." Size: 8vo.…
