biographical and critical material, including an essay by Ivor Indyk. The MUP Masterworks series celebrates distinguished Australian writers and ideas. Other writers in the series include A.A. Phillips, Donald Horne, Janet McCalman, Ray Parkin and Brenda Niall.
Manning Clark's History of Australia has been nominated as the most influential work of non-fiction Australia has produced. As Donald Horne wrote, Clark 'looked for great human issues and presented them as moral dramas'. In this extract from Volume 5, the tragedy of Gallipoli is played out against the broader Australian experience of World War I, as the nation, still in its infancy, struggled to make sense of the terrible conflict in Europe and its costs.

This title's release coincides with the ninetieth anniversary commemorations of the landing at Gallipoli.
