Excerpt from original source: The town of Gallipoli streches along the side of a bay sufficiently extensive to afford shelter for a large fleet, and is favoured with a safe landing place, accessible even in bad weather. The north is protected by formidable batteries...The town itself contains a mixed population of about 17, 000 inhabitants, composed of Turks, Greeks, Jews, and Armenians, who crowdd together in a mass of ruinous hovels which would excite the disgust of the meanest inhabitants of our British cities (165-166)
