"Trenching at Gallipoli" by John Gallishaw is a personal narrative written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the experiences of Gallishaw, a member of the First Newfoundland Regiment, during the ill-fated Dardanelles Expedition in World War I. This historical account provides poignant insights into the realities of trench warfare, the camaraderie among soldiers, and the challenges faced on the Gallipoli Peninsula. At the start of the book, the author describes the outbreak of war and the fervent spirit of enlistment among Newfoundlanders, who felt a strong desire to serve their King and country. As the regiment prepares for deployment, we are introduced to a cast of characters, including the enthusiastic young men from Newfoundland who join together to train. Gallishaw vividly depicts the anticipation and excitement as the soldiers travel to the front lines, highlighting their determination to prove themselves in battle, despite the looming dangers they face. The scene is set for the harrowing trials that await them as they land at Gallipoli, marking the beginning of a difficult and tragic chapter in the war. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
