2010 conference

5–6 August 2010: Gallipoli: A ridge too far

In August 2010, the Australian War Memorial will convene an international conference to mark the 95th anniversary of the climactic battles of the Gallipoli campaign. This conference will draw leading military historians from around the world to bring multi-national perspectives to many intriguing questions. Keynote speaker, Professor Robin Prior of the University of Adelaide, author of Gallipoli: the end of the myth (2009), will join a range of international authorities from Australia, New Zealand, Britain, France, Germany and Turkey to present their most recent research findings.
