"The Straits Impregnable" by Sydney Loch is a fictionalized autobiography written during World War I. Based on Loch's firsthand experience serving with the First A.I.F. in the Gallipoli Campaign, the work was originally written as autobiography but published as a novel to circumvent wartime censorship. Using pseudonyms and writing under the pen name Sydney De Loghe, Loch offers a truthful and graphic portrayal of conditions at Gallipoli and their devastating effects on servicemen during one of the war's most infamous campaigns.
