First edition of this extremely rare first-hand and historically significant eyewitness account of the Syrian and the Suez Canal Operations during the Great War by an Ottoman soldier and statesman. Erden describes in this book his return to Istanbul after his military attaché duty in Paris and his departure to Damascus to join the 4th Army in Syria under the command of Cemal Pasha (1872-1922). He then discusses the Arab Revolt in Hejaz and its possible effects on the Ottoman Empire (The Arab Uprising was initiated by Sharif Hussein bin Ali in June 1916 during the Great War with the aim of creating an independent and united Arab state comprising of Aden in Yemen and Aleppo in Syria against the Imperial Ottoman). After disclosing his views and the actions of the army in the region, he goes on to describe Jerusalem, the Suez Canal, and the wars that took place there. Erden gave new information on the reasons and results of the Canal operation, the condition of the Turkish army along Palestine and Syria fronts, the relations among the Turkish staff, and the nature of the Arab revolt through his views and observations in Egypt, Palestine, and Syria fronts accumulated as he was Cemal Pasha's chief of staff.

After graduating from the Military Academy in 1903, he worked in the units and headquarters in Yemen, as the staff of the 3rd Corps in the Balkan War and as the Paris Military Attaché.

Very Good French Original leaflet on a folded bifolium. Size: 20 x 16 cm; open size: 20 x 32 cm. In French. [3] p. Slight foxing and stains on paper, some chippings on folded traces and extremities. Overall a good copy. This extremely rare proclamation on the Patrona Halil Rebellion and the fire following the rebellion in 1730 within the Ottoman Empire, written to those living in France, especially Paris residents, was approved by Herault on 21 November 1730. The Patrona Halil Rebellion was a social uprising within the Ottoman Empire, which ended the so-called Tulip period and catapulted Sultan Mahmud I to the throne. The rule of this Sultan and the time until the 1760s was the last period of stability for the Ottoman Empire, as evidenced by the Belgrade Peace Treaty. The Ottoman Empire did not participate in the Seven Years' War, but the defeat in the Russo-Turkish War (1768-1774) destabilized it so that it could never again regain its previous stability. This printed rare leaflet details how this revolt started, and what its causes and consequences were. It is stated that the number of people who participated in this revolt, which was aggravated with the Janissaries not getting their salaries for an extended period of time, reached 100,000, the grand vizier and his grooms were strangled, and many people including officials and civilians died during the events. It is also stated that the news about the events in Istanbul was confirmed by Prince Alexander of Wirttemberg, who came from Vienna to Belgrade. Only one copy is located in Bibliotheque Nationale de France in OCLC: 460213436.

"This account of the Cyprus revolt analyses its causes, and documents many of the incidents during the four dangerous and violent years before the Zurich agreements were signed in London in February 1959. The author, a Cypriot, is able to reveal something of the daring and ingenious methods of the EOKA guerrillas; their hide-outs in the mountains and forests, or in a peasant's cellar; their secret organisation which penetrated the church, the administration, even the police." - from dust jacket.

LYON, François Guillot/PARIS, Dantu - 1831 - In-8 - Broché - Frontispice-gravure en taille douce dépliant représentant la barrière de la Croix-rousse - Gravure dépliante en taille douce in-fine représentant le combat du Pont Morand - 48 pages - Rare "Le 20 novembre 1831 l’association mutuelle des chefs d’atelier de soierie décide la grève générale pour obliger les fabricants à respecter le tarif de façon réclamé pacifiquement par les tisseurs et fixé en commun sous l’égide du maire et du préfet trois semaines plus tôt. Ils se heurtent à la garde nationale bourgeoise et à l’armée. Après deux jours de combats ils occupent l’hôtel de ville, mais leurs divisions permettent au préfet de rétablir son autorité dès le 24. Le bilan est lourd ; près de 200 morts, deux fois plus de blessés, civils et militaires ; abolition du tarif et interdiction des associations au nom du libéralisme. Toutefois la plupart des inculpés seront acquittés, eu égard aux difficultés économiques. Le 9 avril 1834, pendant le procès de tisseurs accusés de coalition et de grève, des coups de feu tirés sur la foule déclenchent une semaine de combats encore plus meurtriers : plus de 300 morts, près de 600 blessés. On se bat pour la république autant que pour la liberté d’association(D’autres villes se soulèvent). Voir la lithographie de Daumier Rue Transnonain, le 15 avril 1834). La répression est brutale : condamnations à la prison, à la déportation ; rétablissement de la censure. Sans association ni journaux, la contestation semble écrasée. Une amnistie sera accordée en 1837".Hélène DELPECH
