Special Features Include: The Gallipoli Evacuation by Peter Hart

We’re very excited to bring you the first issue of our quarterly magazine. Our plan is to base each issue around a theme, which will account for about 30% of the content. We chose Remembrance first because we thought it timed nicely with the date of issue and marked the beginning of our publication with something that we held dear in formulating the objectives of the Great War Group. Upcoming themes include the German Spring Offensives of 1918, the fight for Gaza in 1917, Artillery and the campaigns in Africa. So as you can see, for the rest of our inaugural year, future issues will be more battle-led than this one.
