1944200808Remington Rand. 1944. Five printed colour maps each: 31.4 x 47 cms; 46.3 x 53.3 cms sheet central fold marginal edge wear chips and a few small edge tears tidemark affecting the ocean at the outer edge of Map VII but all the maps in very good condition. From a series of World War II battlefront maps "for the delight of arm-chair strategists" published by the Library Bureau of Remington Rand seven were published. Taken from a bird's eye view of the globe and with relief artistically rendered by artist Kenneth Thompson 1907-1996 and descriptive text by George Fielding Eliot 1894-1971. Eliot spent his youth in Australia attending Melbourne University serving with distinction in the Australian Infantry in WWI. Moving to the United States after a short stint in Canada serving with the RCMP her served as a reserve officer in the U.S. Army reserve in military intelligence from 1922 to 1933 and during WWII Eliot famously broadcast the first extended television coverage following the attack on Pearl Harbor. He continued to write books and articles about military strategy and world politics into the 1960s. <br> <br>In keeping with the "aviation-age" cartography of Richard Edes Harrison the unusual perspective of the maps--from above and often with a direction other than north at the top of the map--challenges the viewer to reconsider the geopolitical situation with the text of Eliot as a further prompt his captions below: <br> <br>Map III Italy & South France "Hannibal Caesar and Napoleon made their reputations here" <br>Map IV The Western Front "Will the cockpit of 1918 see the decisive battles of 1944" <br>Map V Southeastern Asia "The road to Mandalay -- and to China --along which bombs for Tokyo must travel" <br>Map VI The Southwest Pacific "Island-hopping toward Japan -- in short and long hops" <br>Map V11 The North Pacific "Here the enemy trusts in the protection of vast ocean distances" .

The letter concerns the enclosure of the Langtoft Estate and 'Mr. Bankes' who 'never had any Legal Right to interfere in the Business'.

'Whatever may have been the Case with You I have been too long blind but my Eyes have now been opened.' Declares himself pleased with 'Mr. Gee who appears to be a plain well-disposed honest Man: & notwithstanding Mrs. Banks's Insinuations to the Contrary I do assure You when I fairly put the Question He honestly said if He might chuse Mr. Norton was the Man whom above all others He should like & did wish to be my Agent.'

1946160185Shanghai: China Culture Service 1946. Second editions of these anthologies uncommon in any printing or edition of bilingual Engish-Chinese materials printed for language learners in China during the mid-1940s taking as their subjects speeches treaties and declarations issued by the Allies during the Second World War including addresses by Winston Churchill FDR and Chiang Kai-shek. Together these two volumes reproduce 88 texts the English and Chinese versions in adjacent columns. Each is followed by notes and annotations and sometimes by quotes of interest by Mark Twain William Blake and other literary figures. Frequent errors in the text emphasize the stretched socio-economic circumstances in which these materials were produced. The texts were first issued in individual instalments before the China Culture Service decided to compile them into anthologies. Following the Maoist victory in 1949 much Second World War-related content became politically problematic ensuring that both the instalments and the anthologies are now hard to come by. We have traced various holdings at just six institutions in the US as well as at the National Library of China. Two works quarto. Original decorative paper wrappers spines lettered in Chinese in black front covers lettered in English and Chinese in black. Wrappers generally well-preserved with some chips and nicks small losses and tears to spines and contents page of vol. II text just slightly affected faint circular stain on front cover of vol. I contents evenly browned as often with 1940s Chinese paper. Very good copies of these fragile publications. unknown

It was the primary receiving point for Union soldiers wounded in the eastern theatres of the war as well as those being returned from Confederate prisons such as Libby and Andersonville. The former prisoners were in shockingly poor health due to the conditions in which they were held with many dying on the transports to Annapolis and those who survived needing much attention.

186018886Charleston: Evans & Cogswell 1860. Paperback. 8vo. Wrappers. 6pp. Very good. Although the goal of this report was to urge the state conventions of South Carolina Alabama Mississippi and Florida "that no final separate State action shall be taken upon the question of secession from the Union until a general Convention of the Southern States can be had" it was not received before South Carolina's withdrawal; therefore this pamphlet became South Carolina's attempt "briefly to state the causes which induced the passage of the Ordinance" to Georgians. This she does passionately and yes briefly. A very scarce Confederate imprint. PARRISH 3815. Evans & Cogswell paperback
