The Peninsula Press was a news sheet produced throughout the campaign from May 1915 to Jan 1916 initially it was produced daily but as the campaign continued it reduced in frequency to weekly. It was apart from the first issue always a single sheet with two columns with an amazing wide range of information coving military information from all of the other theatres as well as political stories from around the world. It also on occasion included information on actions that had taken place on the Gallipoli Peninsula.We believe this volume brings together all 96 issues for the first time.

Vaughns Rifles was originally raised in 1849 as the 5th Regiment of Punjab Infantry. Lord Kitchener's Indian Army reforms of 1903 meant the regiment's designation was changed to 58th Vaughan's Rifles (Frontier Force). During the First World War, the regiment was sent with Force A to France to serve with the 21st Infantry Brigade part of the 7th Meerut Division. At the end of 1915, the regiment was sent to Egypt where it initially served with the 31st Indian Brigade and then in 1916, it was transferred to the 20th Indian Brigade. It then served with the Egyptian Expeditionary force for the remainder of the war.

Allanson commanded the 6th Gurkha Rifles during one of the regiments pivotal actions at Gallipoli. The attack on Sari Bair, where the Gurkhas captured the ridge but were forced to retire after coming under artillery fire, potentially by mistake from the British NavyThe published diary of Cecil Allanson is an interesting document not least because of when it was published in August 1916 just seven months after the evacuation. It was a bringing together of the diaries that he kept during the campaign, detailing not only what happened but also his thoughts and observations. Many of these observations are highly critical of the Gallipoli campaign and are more important for the fact that they were not the product of hindsight like many accounts that were published after the war.

The E.E.F. came into being in March 1916 from the remnants of the British troops from Gallipoli and the troops already in Egypt although it lost ten of its fourteen infantry divisions to other theatres in quick order.
