Gallipoli: The Fateful Campaign that Shaped Nations (On Campus and Zoom)
TBD and Zoom Class
The Gallipoli campaign is considered a major defeat for the Allies, but is seen as a defining moment in the national consciousness of Australia and New Zealand. It also solidified Mustafa Kemal Atatu?rk's reputation as a military leader, later leading to his role in founding modern Turkey. The class will explore this pivotal battle and include pictures from my visit to the battlefield last Spring.
Coordinator: John Smith
