The Tenth (Irish) Division at Gallipoli: Annotated with Chapter Summaries

By: Cooper, Bryan

In The Tenth (Irish) Division in Gallipoli, Major Bryan Cooper offers an unparalleled account of courage, camaraderie, and resilience under fire. As the first Irish division raised to fight for the British Army in World War I, the Tenth Division faced some of the harshest conditions of the Gallipoli Campaign. From its rigorous training across the rugged Irish countryside to the brutal, sun-scorched hills of Suvla Bay and the harrowing assaults on Sari Bair and Hill 60, the division's journey exemplifies the valour and tenacity of Irish soldiers.

Cooper's firsthand insights, combined with detailed narratives of each campaign, illuminate the day-to-day experiences, struggles, and triumphs of these men. With rich historical context, personal anecdotes, and vivid descriptions, The Tenth (Irish) Division in Gallipoli brings to life the sacrifices and achievements of a division forged in the crucible of war. This volume serves as both a tribute to the division's legacy and a testament to Ireland's indelible role in one of history's most challenging theaters of combat.
