Wakley, Warburton and Wyse. An important text in the literature of parliamentary reform in Britain. Though the work is often noted for the excellent likenesses of its plates (the majority engraved by Mote and Hull from work by Hayter and others), it would be a mistake to under-value Saunders' assessments, which comprise a key series of contemporary appraisals of biography, character and achievement not easily found elsewhere. Text by novelist John Saunders (1810-1895); the majority of portraits by William Hayter (1792-1879); Sketch of Parliamentary Reform by William Howitt (1792-1871). VERY SCARCE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION.
1970171823Riyadh: Ministry of Defense and Aviation Army of Saudi Arabia 1970. An otherwise unrecorded manual designed for American personnel helping train the Saudi military during the reorganization of the country's military under King Faisal. In the late 1960s Saudi Arabia engaged the American firm Commonwealth-Tumpane to run on-the-job classroom and counterpart training for military personnel. In the latter trainees studied the duties and responsibilities of positions. The opening sections discuss human relations and managerial strategy. The majority of the manual concerns job proficiency guides for the roles mentored under the scheme ranging from vehicle maintenance inspectors to armaments repair foremen and engineering equipment instructors. "Given enough time confidence courage and spirit of compromise the Program will be a success. The Trainee must do most of the work for which he is being trained and only that work and the Trainer must provide large doses of advice and assistance sharing his professional experience skill and wisdom" pp. 2-3. At around the time this guide was issued a separate force - the Saudi National Guard - was being restructured with British involvement. Quarto. With numerous diagrams in text; contents xerox typescript. Spiral bound in original cream card wrappers front cover lettered in black. Front wrapper with small pencil annotation. Wrappers somewhat soiled with small areas of skinning loss to spiral at head of spine contents generally clean minor ink stains: a very good copy. unknown

1st edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo. 17 pages, 21 cm. Title translates roughly to "God's Voice From The Fire: A Speech Given in The New Israelite Temple Honoring the Best of the School Teachers and Teachers Lost in the Fire. " Gotthold (1784-1862) was a German Jewish rabbi, politician, and bible translator. He was the first Jew to translate the complete Old Testament into High German, following in the footsteps of Moses Mendelssohn. He also preached at the Hamburg Temple. This speech addresses The Great fire of Hamburg, which began early on May 5, 1842, in Deichstrasse and burned until the morning of May 8, destroying about one third of the buildings in the Altstadt. It killed 51 people and destroyed 1, 700 residences and several important public buildings, necessitating major civic rebuilding and prompting infrastructure improvements. The heavy demand on insurance companies led to the establishment of reinsurance. The Neuen Israelitischen Tempel (aka, the Hamburg Temple) was the first permanent Reform synagogue and the first ever to have a Reform prayer rite. It operated in Hamburg (Germany) from 1818 to 1938 (Wikipedia). SUBJECTS: Jewish sermons -- Germany. OCLC lists 5 copies worldwide (Harvard, HUC, NLI, State Archives of Freien and Hansestadt, UBremen, and Leo Baeck) . Very good condition. (GER-55-2)
