In this episode Mick chats with Dr. Rhys Crawley, a historian at the Australian War Memorial. They discuss his book and the failed August offensive in Gallipoli that began with the attack on Lone Pine on the 6th of August 1915. They touch on the efforts of the Australians, British and Kiwi soldiers as well as the withdrawal from the Dardenelles by the allies.
Rhys also provides a new and eloquent definition of war.
