Description
As a young soldier in the battlefields of Gallipoli Sydney Loch witnessed the horror of war first-hand. On his return to Australia he detailed what he saw in his book The Straits Impregnable. Hoping to avoid military censorship his publishers dubbed Sydney's book a novel. But as the war ground on and the numbers of casualties grew the publisher inserted a note saying the story was factual. The book which had enjoyed huge literary acclaim was immediately withdrawn from sale by the censors.
