Johnny : the legend and tragedy of General Sir Ian Hamilton /by John Philip Jones.

"The Gallipoli campaign was launched in April 1915 in an effort to knock Turkey out of the war. The commander, General Sir Ian Hamilton was at fault in the way he conducted his campaign. This book examines why Hamilton failed at Gallipoli and shows how, in spite of that failure and it being his last command, he became a well respected military prophet who made many several perceptive predictions about the future of warfare."--Provided by the publisher.
