Quinn's Post, Anzac, Gallipoli
Title:
Quinn's Post, Anzac, Gallipoli
Stanley, Peter
$30.00

Allen and Unwin, 2005. Spine faded with crease the length of centre.

The men who served at Quinn's Post described it as 'the deadliest position on the peninsula,' 'perhaps the scene of the most terrible struggle in all history,' where 'a day in hell doesn't equal an hour in these trenches.' 'If Quinn's wasn't held,' one said, 'then no one in Anzac was safe.' At Quinn's, wrote another, 'the ground itself seemed to be wounded and bleeding.' For the entire Gallipoli campaign, Quinn's Post was critical to the defence of Anzac. Yet we know very little more about Quinn's than we did in 1924. No one, since the publication of Charles Bean's official history, has investigated the post and what it was like to serve there... This book tells the powerful story of the Australians and New Zealanders who lived and died at Quinn's Post, from the first hours of the landing to the final minutes of the evacuation...
