Part of the 'Stories from Australia's History' series, which promotes critical thinking and analysis through an emphasis on causes and effects, key personalities and their roles, and the long-term outcomes for Australian society. This particular book in the series focuses on World War 1 and Gallipoli, where Australian and New Zealand (Anzac) soldiers were sent to fight Turkish troops at Gallipoli. They fought bravely, but had to retreat in the end. Although the battle for Gallipoli was a disaster, the legendary Anzac spirit lives on. This is the story of the people and events behind that battle, and how it changed Australia forever.
