The Dardanelles campaign was conceived by Winston Churchill, then First Lord of the Admiralty, as a way to knock Turkey out of the war and open up a supply route to Russia. However, the campaign was poorly planned and executed, and it quickly turned into a bloody stalemate. The Allies suffered heavy casualties, and the campaign ultimately failed to achieve its objectives.

Bell's book provides a detailed and nuanced account of the campaign, from the initial planning stages to the final evacuation. He examines the role of Churchill and other key figures in the campaign, and he assesses the reasons for its failure. Bell also explores the legacy of the campaign, which continues to be debated today.
