In November 1915, a woman appeared amid the fighting at Gallipoli. She laid a wreath on a grave and then disappeared. It was the grave of an ANZAC killed at the landings and later regarded a hero and awarded the Victoria Cross. Was the visitor a dedicated nurse and hospital founder who saved the lives of thousands in a 50-year career - a woman awarded medals by Britain, France and Turkey? Or was it a famous explorer, fluent in Arabic and Persian, a friend of the famous including T E Lawrence and Winston Churchill and the only female delegate among thousands at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919?

Join military historian John Howell, author of The Only Woman at Gallipoli to learn more about this fascinating story.
In partnership with Yarra Plenty Library Service & Melton Library Service.
