Inside GHQ: The Gallipoli Diary of Captain Orlo Williams
Description
By Orlo Williams
Step inside the nerve centre of the Gallipoli Campaign with the previously unpublished diary of Captain Orlo Williams.
As a cipher officer within General Headquarters (GHQ), Orlo possessed privileged access to the secret communications that shaped the ill-fated 1915 expedition. He gives an insider’s account of life at GHQ, detailing the planning and execution of crucial moments – the landings, key battles, and the final evacuation. Witness the complex interplay between military commanders and politicians, illuminated by Orlo’s candid, often critical, assessments of figures like Hamilton, Churchill, and Kitchener.
This diary is an essential primary source, revealing the internal machinations, strategic debates, and political pressures defining one of the First World War’s most controversial campaigns.
