193291Various places 1932. Very good. Seventy-five items plus six small notebooks and one folio scrapbook. Some wear and soiling to a few items but condition generally clean and quite good. Extensive archive of transit information for the cities of Lima Peru and Santiago Chile compiled by traffic expert M.T. Montgomery of Lancaster Pennsylvania. Based near Lima Montgomery gathered information on bus rail chauffeur and rail-less trolley travel. Included here are manuscript notes and recommendations typed reports his pocket notebooks travel ephemera printed tracts and booklets and more. A repurposed ledger serves as a scrapbook holding 120 pages of Spanish-language newspaper clippings documenting traffic conditions and issues. The archive contains about thirty-five pieces of travel-related ephemera -- bus tickets calling cards transit passes -- from Montgomery's time in South America. There is a large broadsheet advertising the fiestas for Carnaval complete with a map of the festivities on the back. . Also present is a blueprint plan of Lima showing the omnibus service routes in 1927 and a mimeographed study on the bus service between Santiago and San Bernardo. In his work Montgomery points out the traffic chaos in the region and the associated difficulty of making profit under the current rate for fares. He provides a list of recommendations for ameliorating the situation including "All taxis until further notice will work only 20 days per month which will reduce the vehicles on the streets ." Other memos include "High Spots of Improvements Made in Tramway Service in Cordoba - Mendoza - Santa Fe - Tucuman & Parana"; "Personal Views Regarding Points Discussed at Tramway Managers Meeting"; and "A Few Facts about Schedules: One Man's Opinion." He also recommends that businesses building factories in South America not hire Latin American managers lest they lose control of their customer base. Montgomery appears to have been worried about the threat of Communism as well as there are a handful of manuscripts and pamphlets documenting the dangers of that political bent. A wonderful trove of information on an unusual subject giving the perspective of an American specialist on the issues of traffic and transportation in South America. unknown books

1989150795London / New York: Routledge 1989. Hardcover. VG- Slight wear to top edge of dj; some instances of pencilled underlings and handwritings in text; otherwise clean. Maroon cloth gilt letters on spine beige & illus. dust jacket 342 pp. "Examines the marriage of British peers to American women within the context of the opening up of London and New York society and the growing competitiveness for high social status. In London American women were often blamed for the growing hedonism and materialism of smart society and for poaching in the marriage market. They were invariably described as frivolous vain and calculating -- a description which points to the simmering anti-American sentiment in Britain. It was even suggested that titled Americans were having a detrimental effect on the British peerage because of their failure to produce male heirs. This is a brilliant analysis of the reasons why American women were viewed pejoratively not only in terms of anti-American feeling in Britain and the social transformation of the British upper class but also the threat of women who did not appear to conform to aristocratic notions of a peeress's duties as a wife and mother." dj.

"In this important new study to Japanese imperialism Michael Montgomery focuses on the psychological factors which lay behind it; the sense of inferiority engendered by the wholesale adoption of Chinese culture the feeling of uniqueness encouraged by the long period of isolation and acceptance of authority conditioned by the rigidly hierarchical nature of Japanese society. These factors still apply today he believes and the recent attempt to sanitise school history textbooks revives uncomfortable echoes of the pre-war Bureau of Thought Control."- dust jacket.
