Operations Of The Mounted Troops Of The Egyptian Expeditionary Force. This fascinating book was originally published as a series of articles in the Cavalry Journal between 1921-23. The articles bring together learning from what was the last major cavalry campaign. https://buff.ly/4jXplYJ

last Year Gosling Press produced Peninsula Press all 96 editions of this famous Gallipoli news sheet in a single volume. We believe that no single museum or archive has a full set, as we had to scour archives around the world to produce this. https://buff.ly/417gYRP

another great set of pictures form Volkan Eldem on the other place. Bombing training with homemade bombs made from tin cans on the Arıburun coast. @gallipoliassoc.bsky.social @thegreatwargroup.bsky.social

Gosling Press and a number of other nice people are considering doing some book launch events. The format being considered is your ticket gets you a copy of the book and two or three lectures. Could you answer a couple of questions to help our planning? https://buff.ly/4hTNUnl
