1967010800New York: Columbia University Press 1967. 421pp/illus. End-paper maps. "Combining the skills of an anthropologist and an economist Belshaw provides a remarkably sophisticated analysis of the workings of a peasant economic system in interaction with the larger national community. The findings have relevance for rural development outside of Mexico as well as within it and the research design itself may constitute an exceptionally useful model for economists working at this level of inquiry. The major part of the field work for this study was done in 1962 using questionnaires including a census of people land and animals an agricultural survey a social survey a questionnaire for storekeepers and another for garmentmakers focused on entrepreneurial activities and a sixth on miscellaneous occupations. The study is focused on land labor capital and entrepreneurship and includes data on the social structure and standards of living. DJ has a couple of small tears.

193815233Carrick & Evans 1938. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Acceptable/No DJ. At one time the DJ had been taped in Mylar which left adhesive residue and browning stains on boards and pictorial map endpapers; half the title page vertical strip on right has been torn out and missing possibly to rid the book of library stamps. There is a library stamp on bottom edge and "salvage" stamped on half title page and back pictorial map endpapers which suffered extensive abrasions and sticker scars from removal of now missing jacket. There was an attempt to rub out call numbers on spine which left a large black splotch. In addition to the library discard issues the spine is bulging and separated from block sunned frayed on edges and split at the back pastedown. There is a mild yellowing of text especially edges. Boards are worn faded and soiled. Text and illustrations are quite readable and this is more than reasonable reading copy of a scarce title.

Book has a 5 CM tear in exterior gutter of front board at tail of spine not affecting solid binding and fine interior. The first to be published in over thirty years this long-awaited catalogue raisonné covers the work of Frans Post Haarlem 1612-Haarlem 1680 the first artist from the Old World to paint the landscape of the Americas on the basis of first-hand experience. Engaged by Prince Johan Maurits van Nassau as part of the Dutch West India Company's colonizing efforts in the Northeast of Brazil the young artist remained in the province of Pernambuco from 1637 to 1644. He arrived here at the age of 24 and painted the seven canvases of extraordinary quality that were the subject of a recent exhibition at the Musée du Louvre in Paris 2005. These detailed and accurate records of what the young artist saw are the first landscapes of the New World painted in situ by a trained European artist as well as outstandingly original landscape paintings. After his return to Holland Post chose the Brazilian landscape as the exclusive theme of his work for more than 30 years and over the past decades the other 148 known paintings that survive from his Dutch production have also been receiving the growing attention of collectors scholars and museums worldwide. This book presents all of the 155 autograph paintings confirmed to date along with 57 drawings and 35 prints. To complete their task the authors were joined by four renowned international experts to establish the corpus of authentic works and their chronology. The portrait of Frans Post on the back cover is by his contemporary Frans Hals. <br/> <br/> Five Continents Editions hardcover
