Purchase options and add-ons

The Gallipoli campaign of 1914–15 is one of the events of the First World War that continues to seize imaginations today. The first modern seaborne landing of British, French, Australian, New Zealand, and Indian forces on a hostile—and what proved to be a well-defended—peninsula, the attack has been remembered for its many acts of individual heroism as well as its unprepared leaders.

Of particular fascination, and until now largely overlooked in historical accounts, are the naval dimensions of the campaign. The Navy's presence at Gallipoli crucially proved how influential submarine power could be. This absorbing book provides the only account of the complete Allied submarine and related German U-boat activity, integrated with a thorough analysis of the strategies and actions of all land, sea, and air forces. Incorporating patrol and technical reports and personal testimonies, Victor Rudenno's gripping narrative does full justice to the dramatic and inspirational battles in the Dardanelles.

Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2012
I am surprised to see that this fine book has not been reviewed on Amazon. I read it a year ago and forget much detail, but offer some comments. The book describes the naval war associated with the Gallipoli campaign of 1915. To my disappointment, the surface attack on the Dardanelles initiating the campaign is covered no more comprehensively than in books devoted to the entire campaign. And the land offensive receives much more attention than I needed. But this book is ideal for someone interested in submarine warfare and without other source material on the land campaign.

The heart of the book is British submarine activity in the Dardanelles and the Sea of Marmara. It was totally unlike submarine warfare of the Atlantic in both world wars or the Pacific in the second. There was not yet sonar or depth charges to threaten subs, but antisubmarine nets, swift currents confounding estimates of location in the Dardanelles, and occasionally the sound of grappling hooks dragging across the sub menaced operations. Some captains and crews were extraordinarily talented and brave.

In the Sea of Marmara British subs attacked railroad trains or columns of marching troops. There were duals between subs and shore batteries. The eventual appearance of U boats in the Sea of Marmara introduced a new challenge for the British.

There are many maps and figures. If I ignored the other material and only rated the sections on submarine warfare the book would merit five stars. It is highly recommended.

Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2016
Into the first few chapters and find the detail excellent. There are a few errors, for example David Lloyd George is referred to as the Prime Minister. He became PM in December 1916 considerably after Allied forces evacuated the peninsula.

Thus far there could be more maps as some of the place names in the text have no accompanying map.

Will post more as I continue into the text.

4.0 out of 5 stars 海から視たガリポリ
Reviewed in Japan on September 25, 2008
uboat.netの書評に載っていたので注文してみました。
まだ届いたばかりなので、詳細な内容はuboat.netの方を見てもらえれば分かると思います...

ガリポリのついての和書資料はフジ出版社から出ている「ガリポリ」しかメボしいモノは無いと思います。
ガリポリ―第一次大戦における最大の勇気と最大の愚行 」にもUボートを始めとして海戦も載ってますが...
一方この本は海からの視点を中心にしてガリポリを描いてくれます。
写真はモノクロで英潜のE11、B11、E14、E20。UボートはU21のみ。
私はWWIのUボートはあんまり詳しくないのですが、目次で見るとUボートはオーストリア-ハンガリー帝国所属に
