Seyhülislâm merhûm Cemâleddin Efendi hazretlerinin hatirât-i siyâsiyesi. His father, Sheikh Yusufzâde Hâlid Efendi, was a member of the judiciary and served as Kazasker and as a minister. His mother was a member of the Kevabibiye family and a daughter of Mehmed Said Efendi. Mehmet Cemaleddin was educated in Ottoman and Islamic law, and served in the Ottoman judiciary as Kadi (Chief Judge) of Constantinople in 1884. He was appointed Chief Judge of Anatolia (Anadolu Kazaskeri) in 1888 and Chief Judge of Rumelia, the European parts of the Ottoman Empire in the Balkans, in 1890. On 4 September 1891, at the age of 43, he was appointed Seyhülislam, the Cabinet Minister in charge of religious and legal matters. He remained in this post for 16 years and 11 months, and was later reappointed on three other occasions for shorter periods, holding this post for a total of nearly 18 years, and becoming the second-longest holder of this post in Ottoman history, after Ali Zembilli Efendi. His son-in-law was the noted Turkish surgeon and mayor of Constantinople Prof. Cemil Topuzlu, also known as Cemil Pasha, whose name was given to a major boulevard in modern Istanbul, "Cemil Topuzlu Caddesi" and to a municipal amphitheatre Cemil Topuzlu Harbiye Amphitheatre. Mehmet Cemaleddin's younger brother Ibrahim Sami Bey, was a member of the Ottoman Council of State or Sura-yi Devlet whose grandson Erol Gelenbe is the Dennis Gabor Chair Professor at Imperial College, London.

When his body was brought to Constantinople, it lay in state at the Topkapi Palace, and he is now buried at the Edirnekapi Shehitlik Cemetery. This memoirs book of him includes his politic memoirs.

New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Folio. (31 x 25 cm). In English. 319 pp. Color and b/w ills. An Austrian military engineer, Captain Ernst Krickl was a member of an Austrian archaeological expedition to Lycia in southwest Anatolia in 1892. Krickl made important contributions to this stage of Lycian research, drawing sketches of the monuments they encountered and plans of the ancient sites they visited, and taking photographs. 1892 Lycian Journal is Ernst Krickl's personal account of the expedition, illustrated with photographs. These three albums are here published in facsimile and English translation together with contemporary commentary on the expedition as described by Krickl. Reading Krickl's journal we accompany this young military engineer on a journey with some of the most eminent scholars of his time through a world that was completely strange to him and in many respects is strange to us in Turkey today, due to the radical changes that have taken place over the intervening century.

Very Good English In contemporary cloth bdg. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Ottoman script. [2], [6], 264 p., 1 huge map. Özege: 2936. Memoirs of General Luigi Cadorna (1850-1928); was an Italian Field Marshal, most famous for being the chief of staff of the Italian army during the first part of World War I. Cadorna launched four offensives in 1915, all along the Isonzo River. The goal of these offensives was the fortress of Gorizia, the capture of which would permit the Italian armies to pivot south and march on Trieste, or continue on to the Ljubljana Gap. All four offensives failed, resulting in some 250,000 Italian casualties for little material gain. Cadorna would ultimately fight eleven battles on the Isonzo between 1915 and 1917. Additional forces were arrayed along the Trentino salient, attacking towards Rovereto, Trento, and Bolzano. These attacks also failed. The terrain along the Isonzo and Trentino was completely unsuited for offensive warfare-mountainous and broken, with no room for maneuver. On October 24, 1917, a combined Austro-Hungarian/German army struck across the Soca (the Slovene name for the Isonzo River) at Kobarid (called Caporetto in Italian) and by November 12 had advanced all the way to the Piave River. Cadorna's disposition of most of his troops far forward, with little defense in depth, contributed greatly to the disaster; but graver still were the responsibilities of other officers, notably Pietro Badoglio, then corps commander in a sector overrun by the Austro-German attack. Cadorna himself had been on leave for most of October and his immediate subordinate was seriously ill. The Italian Army fled in disarray and seemed on the verge of total collapse; 275,000 soldiers surrendered. Italy's allies Britain and France sent eleven divisions to reinforce the Italian front, and insisted on the dismissal of Cadorna.[4] The new Italian Prime Minister Vittorio Orlando was in agreement with the need for more competent military leadership and Cadorna was replaced as Chief of General Staff with the respected General Armando Diaz; Cadorna was appointed as the Italian representative to the Allied Supreme War Council set up in Versailles. Then the Italian forces rallied behind the Piave and Monte Grappa and reversed, with the help of the Allied divisions, the course of the conflict.

Paris. Chez Pierre Jannet. " Bibliothèque Elzevirienne ", 1858. In-12, XXXII et 432 pp. Reliure éditeur en pleine percaline rouge, dos lisse titré en lettres dorées et orné de la sphère elzévirienne dorée, plats ornés de filets d'encadrement et de fleurons d'angles à froid. LXXII, 360 et 416 pp.Impr. En caractères elzéviriens par Thunot. Mémoires trop peu connus ; l'éditeur ne connait du second qu'un seul exemplaire à la bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, et la collection du marquis d'Aubais qui les a réimprimés est rare elle-même. Ils sont cependant très importants pour l'histoire militaire de la Fronde des princes. Ceux du premier qui vont de 1610 à 1612, se rapportent aux campagnes des alentours de Paris ; ceux du second, qui vont de septembre 1651 à la fin de 1653, se rapportent aux campagnes de Guyenne dans les environs de Bordeaux. Un appendice aux mémoires de Tavannes (p. 225-251) contient la lettre de Mazarin sur sa sortie du royaume, la déclaration de Gaston pour la justification de Condé, le discours du roi et de la régente aux députés du parlement sur la sortie de Mazarin, la Déclaration de Gaston sur ce discours, et la Relation véritable du combat du fauxbourg Saint-Antoine. Les pages 425-431 sont la table des noms de personnes et de lieux. Bel exemplaire.
