With over 200 confirmed kills, Sing, a Queensland Light Horseman, occupied a central role in the brutal, high-stakes duel between Allied and Turkish forces. Author John Hamilton expertly navigates the claustrophobic and perilous environment of the trenches, capturing the grim reality of a war defined by the constant, lethal threat of a hidden rifleman.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeyond the tactical precision and the squalor of the battlefield, the narrative provides a deeply moving exploration of the human cost of conflict. It follows Sing’s journey from his recruitment into the harrowing machinery of the First World War to his difficult return to a peacetime society. This is an essential, meticulously researched account of a unique perspective on the Anzac experience. Hamilton brings to light the isolation of the sniper and the lasting psychological weight carried by those who were celebrated as killers, ultimately crafting a compelling story of heroism, survival, and the complicated aftermath of military service.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsed (good, see images, some yellowing, some cover wear, and some initial pages folding)\u003cbr\u003eSoftcover\u003cbr\u003eISBN 9781405038652","brand":"Blue Pigeon Goods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46405358682262,"sku":"d3_MJGDN5QHNGO6","price":34.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/5189\/4422\/files\/6851.jpg?v=1780296448","url":"https:\/\/bluepigeongoods.com\/products\/gallipoli-sniper-by-john-hamilton","provider":"Blue Pigeon Goods Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
