Now all roads lead to France and heavy is the tread
Of the living; but the dead returning lightly dance.

Map Series #24—The Best Map I've Ever Found for the Anzac/Suvla Sector at Gallipoli


You might still need to enlarge this map or use a magnifying glass to read all the details contained, but I sure wish I had it available when I visited Gallipoli, especially for the Suvla Bay area. It was produced by the New Zealand Department of Lands and Survey in 1915, and it is especially good at showing the terrain.
