Summary "This book is compelling testimony to a pilgrimage which began and ended with visits to Turkey's haunted Gallipoli peninsula where the bones of nearly 3,000 New Zealanders rest-- Maurice Shadbolt has shaped a remarkable document in the history of warfare: the distilled memories of a dozen old men who more than seven decades ago innocently set out to do battle as loyal sons of the British Empire and returned home betrayted, embittered and disillusioned - and New Zealanders."--Jacket
