mebu Posted 17 August , 2015 Share Posted 17 August , 2015 Saw a report of a booklet produced a couple of years ago about an Englishman who planted an oak at Gallipoli, somewhere near the Vineyard. Does anyone know of this, does it still exist? Thanks, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_Hartley Posted 17 August , 2015 Share Posted 17 August , 2015 The book is probably "Gallipoli Oak", written by Forum memebers Ian Dawson and Martin Purdy. A good read which continues to tell the tales of the Territorials from Middleton, Rochdale & Todmorden - http://thegallipolioak.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickpreston@nasuwt.net Posted 17 August , 2015 Share Posted 17 August , 2015 I heard Martin Purdy speak last Saturday in Macclesfield on reflections of the Gallipoli in which he talked about the oak tree planted by the Duckworth family. A great talk well worth the journey to listen to him. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
