With
a preface by the director of Gallipoli, Peter
Weir, this book includes the complete screenplay by
Australian playwright David Williamson along with two
chapters of Bill Gammage's Australian classic The
Broken Years (see below) which recount the the Anzac
campaign at Gallipoli.
This
book provides a compelling record of that ill-fated
military campaign at Gallipoli in 1915, through historical
photographs and eyewitness accounts of the Anzacs who
fought in it.
The
Story of Gallipoli also presents by way of the complete
screenplay, comments of the director and still photographs,
an insight into the process of attempting to capture
the spirit of a legend in a film.
