Gallipoli
Each year, thousands of Australians - young and old - make the pilgrimage to Turkey. Gallipoli- the Pilgrimage Guideis packed with essential information for those visitors, and for armchair travellers too. More than a travel guide, it introduces Gallipoli - the people and places, battles and memorials - in just enough detail to bring the past to life. Fully illustrated and up-to-date, this is the ideal introduction to one of Australia's sacred places.
Pilgrimage
There are more than 30,000 New Zealand men and women, casualties of the two world wars, buried in cemeteries and named on memorials around the world. From Gallipoli to the Western Front, Palestine and the Middle East, Greece, Crete, Italy, Africa, Asia and the Pacific, New Zealanders have fought and died for their country. On a journey through time and place, Garrie Hutchinson takes you to these foreign battlefields, revealing their past and present. With GPS co-ordinates, written descriptions, maps and handy hints, and illustrated with exquisite photography throughout, Pilgrimage is a practical and up-to-date travel companion intertwined with a rich and elegantly told history.
