Lemnos & Gallipoli Revealed - The Shrine of Remembrance Interview



Recently I was interviewed at Melbourne's Shrine of Remembrance by Leigh Gilburt for the Shrine's Podcast series.During the interview I explain some of the key themes and interesting aspects from my research into Lemnos' role in the Gallipoli campaign and reflect on the writing of my new book, Lemnos & Gallipoli Revealed. As the Shrine Podcasts states:
"Over the course of 1915, most of the 50,000 Australian personnel who served at Gallipoli passed through the island of Lemnos. Centring his attention on the Australian experience of the island, historian Jim Claven shares unique and humanising insights into the Gallipoli campaign. Lemnos and Gallipoli Revealed is available through the Shrine shop."
You can listen to the interview by clicking on the following link.
A big thank you to Leigh Gilburt and all at the Shrine of Remembrance for their support of the book and our work over the years.
Jim Claven, Secretary
Lemnos Gallipoli Commemorative Committee
