"O n Land and Sea at the Dardanelles" by T. C. Bridges is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century, during or shortly after World War I. The text dives into the military exploits at the Dardanelles, focusing particularly on the experiences of young soldiers as they navigate the tumultuous landscape of war. The narrative introduces key characters like Ken Carrington, who has a personal backstory tied to the conflict, and his comrade Dave Burney, showcasing their camaraderie amidst the chaos of battle. The opening of the book establishes an intense atmosphere aboard a troop transport ship, where Ken Carrington reflects on his prior experiences in combat while revealing his family's tumultuous history with the Turkish government. Almost immediately, trouble arises when Ken encounters a mysterious figure engaging in suspicious behavior, hinting at espionage amid the war. As chaos unfolds, the narrative transitions to action as the ship is torpedoed, forcing Ken and his companions into a fight for survival. This gripping setup not only introduces the perilous conditions they face but also sets the tone for the ongoing conflict that will likely dominate their journey through the Dardanelles.K en's head whirled. For the moment he was unable to collect his ideas. He stood, grasping the door handle, listening to the thunder of feet overhead and the shouted orders which came dimly to his ears. He heard distinctly the creaking of winches, and knew that the boats were being lowered. His worst suspicions were true; the ship was actually sinking. This lasted only a few seconds. Ken Carrington was not the sort to yield weakly to panic. He pulled himself together, and felt for the switch. It clicked over, but nothing happened. The shock of the explosion had evidently thrown the dynamo out of gear. Then he remembered the little electric torch which he always carried, and in an instant had it out of his pocket, and switched it on. He flashed the little beam across the floor, and its light fell upon the wooden grating over which he had stumbled in his first rush at the enemy signaller. This lay alongside the bath. It was about six feet long and made of four heavy slats nailed on a framework.
