460 pages including index. In 1945, the Headmaster-Designate of an Approved School suggested to the Trustees that it would be of much practical value to have an intensive study of a group of delinquents made by one who could be granted the necessary facilities by residence for a period in a School and by virtual adoption on to its staff. They were fortunate in securing the services of the author for the purpose. Mr. Stott, for four years, enjoyed the active co-operation of the Warden and the members of the permanent staff of a School whose identity it is not, for obvious reasons, possible to disclose. The present volume is the result of Mr. Stott's investigation and of his sympathetic and expert approach to the task thus entrusted to him. Unmarked. Moderate wear. Two half inch tears and some wrinkling to bottom edge of back cover. Solid copy. Book

The booklet includes 30 b/w photographs with descriptive texts and documents the process of the operation began on October 25 at Pakistan Naval Station Karsaz, near Karachi.

The Middle East Treaty Organization (METO), also known as the Baghdad Pact and subsequently known as the Central Treaty Organization (CENTO), was a military alliance of the Cold War. It was formed in 1955 by Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom and dissolved in 1979. US pressure and promises of military and economic aid were key in the negotiations leading to the agreement, but the United States could not initially participate. John Foster Dulles was involved in the negotiations as United States Secretary of State under President Dwight D. Eisenhower. In 1958, the US joined the military committee of the alliance. It is generally viewed as one of the least successful of the Cold War alliances. Eleven copies in OCLC 123251373, 654418496.
