To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I asked whether the two detachments of my Corps were likely to link up again, and was told that if they did not do so in three days the campaign would have failed. It was eight months before the failure was admitted to be irrevocable : all that time the British and French forces did their level best to turn it into a success. MUDROS BAY 143 We were to land, carrying three days' rations for men and animals. Seven days' rations were to be laid out on board, ready to be landed at the first opportu...nity. No kit whatever was to be taken ashore except what we stood up in : the ships would remain standing off the coast, and we should be able to get what we wanted from them after- wards. I was advised to take ashore the minimum number of men required, and to leave all unneces- sary people behind for the present, as there was sure to be difficulty about water. The services of Captains Baddeley and Pulleyn and of Conductor Galway were placed at my disposal. Colonel Koe said that, even with them, we had not nearly enough officers, and that the other Mule Corps from France could spare them better than we could.
