FIRST EDITION FIRST ISSUE THE TRUE CAIRO PRINTING FOR THE PALESTINE NEWS. A core text for understanding the modern Middle East and the fall of Ottoman dominion over the land. This primary document gives a largely day-by-day progression of the events between July 1917 and October 1918 that led up to the Arab revolt against the Ottoman rule in Arabia the defeat of the Ottoman Turks and ultimately the fall of Damascus. This important work is one of the very best documents for understanding the conflict and the subsequent agreements settling the affairs of Syria Lebanon Palestine Arabia Yemen Iraq Jordan and greater Arabia at the end of the First World War. Included are two pieces by T.E. Lawrence the famous “Lawrence of Arabia†and arguably the most important of all the individuals involved with leading the revolt see Seven Pillars of Wisdom. The two articles compiled from Lawrence's own writing concern the 'Sherifian Co-operation in September' and the 'Story of the Arab Movement' that accompany plates 49-50 and 51-53 concerning the Arab Revolt and the fall of Damascus as well as various military reports and numerous maps marking the daily positions of the troops as the final showdown grew nearer. This document was created so that “members of the Force may be able to take home with them an acceptable account of the great advance in which they have played a part†preface. This is one of the earliest accounts of that campaign its details being still “fresh in the memory.†A fascinating and comprehensive record. Much of what is covered in the text is important in the establishment of the modern Middle East including Israeli statehood and the various events leading up to it: the Balfour Declaration and the British Mandate.

17741413Printed for J. Wilkie at Number 71 in St. Paul's Church-yard London 1774. Edition Unstated. Hardcover Original Cloth. Very Good- Condition. Book The full title is "The letters of Governor Hutchinson and Lieut. Governor Oliver &c. printed at Boston and remarks thereon : with the Assembly's Address and the Proceedings of the Lords Committee of Council : together with the substance of Mr. Wedderburn's speech relating to those letters."This English edition believed to be edited by Hutchinson's friend Israel Mauduit was issued following the investigation into the 1773 publication of Hutchinson and Oliver's letters in Boston. Sabin 34072. Howes H-851 Howes 1994 837.No edition is stated but the Library of Congress' "Revolutionary America 1763-1789" describes it as the "second London edition" #31610. What appears to be an earlier printing held by the Library of Congress E211 .M445 Copy 1 RBSCD only goes to signature T and ends with p. 126 including double-numbered pages 75-80. This copy matches the collation of that copy but adds an additional signature S and ends with p. 134. The additional signature provides the report from the Committee of Council for Plantation Affairs read in the presence of King George 7 February 1774. The letters were provided to Thomas Cushing Speaker of the Massachusetts Assembly in December 1772 by Benjamin Franklin Pennsylvania's agent in London. His letter admitting his role appears on pp 72-73. Although he requested they not be printed that request was ignored. The letters were written in 1767-1769 but were used largely out of context to fan the pre-Revolutionary flames. The way they were presented was expressed in a part of the lengthy title the Boston printers provided: "The Judicious Reader will Discover the Fatal Source of the Confusion and Bloodshed in which this Province especially has been involved and Which Threatned sic Total Destruction to the Liberties of all America." Sabin notes the publication of the letters "did more perhaps to bring revolutionary matters to a crisis than any previous publication." In his note Howes is less tentative: "Publication of these letters . fanned revolutionary sentiments in America more than any other book of the period." Size: Octavo 8-9". 134 pages. Item Type: Book. The text block is tight and bright in near fine condition. The only marking is on the title page where two previous owners have marked the pages on which the various parts of the collection of documents begin. A Very Good-minus hardcover copy that has been rebound in red silk over boards. The silk has been coated in some way. The reason for the "minus" is because it is lacking its spine.

Light external wear and soil; internally complete sound and unmarked; Very Good. <br /> <br /> Single issue of this low-budget interwar men's magazine an amateur potpourri of off-color jokes double-entendres wink-wink nod-nod anecdotes anti-Prohibition nostrums and photo illustratons of scantily clad by 1920s standards Hollywood starlets with captions such as: "Here she is fellers. This is the kind of lady who breaks up homes.how'd you like to have her break up yours" And so on. Though the contents of Hot Dog never ventured beyond the palest shades of blue its notional audience - American G.I.s who'd returned from the boites of Europe with suddenly "advanced" notions of sexuality and morality - were clearly appreciative as Dinsmore's outfit kept up publishing at least until 1933.

The album is from the archive of the photographer; some of these photographs were sold to and published in national Dutch and international newspapers and magazines while others remained unpublished.Bianca Dony was part of a group of 150 Christian tourists from various European countries who were now - after the Israeli capture of these areas - able to visit the holy places in the old city of Jerusalem Bethlehem and other places that had previously been inaccessible. The tourists in the present photographs were the first of many and Dony took this opportunity to not only document the trip itself but also the general aftermath of the war.With an additional leaf in the inside front pocket of the album containing notes of how many photographs were sold to different newspapers and magazines including 10 to the "Haagsche Courant" written in blue and red ink and in pencil.

196021074Tel Aviv: Merkaz le-mipui Yiśraʼel.; Sonol Israel ltd. 1960. Second Edition. Folding color road map. Very Good. <br /> <br /> A mid-century Israeli motor map produced for motorists during the country's early statehood years prior to the territorial changes of 1967. Issued by Sonol Israel Ltd. as a petrol-station distribution piece the map reflects the period's reliance on branded service-station maps as practical navigation tools rather than decorative souvenirs. <br /> <br /> Its bilingual Hebrew and English presentation suggests use by both domestic drivers and international visitors during a formative phase of national infrastructure development. <br /> <br /> Physical Description: Color folding road map printed on period paper stock with tabbed sections directing users to informational panels. Includes inset city maps of Haifa Jerusalem and Tel-Aviv-Yafo along with extensive tables of distances road signs service stations and general motoring information. Scale 1:500000. Measures approximately 8 × 5.25 inches folded opening to approximately 15.5 × 38 inches. <br /> <br /> Condition: The bindings are tight and square. Map is clean and fully intact with light even age-toning consistent with mid-century paper stock. No splits or tears. Minor ink notation on the front panel. Second Edition. <br /> <br /> Scarcity Note: Petrol-company road maps from Israel's early decades were produced for utilitarian use and were rarely preserved. WorldCat/OCLC records document few surviving examples of Sonol-issued motor maps with limited representation in map and ephemera collections. This map documents Israel's highway network urban approaches and service infrastructure at a moment when private motoring was expanding rapidly and cartographic standards were still being established. <br /> <br /> The combination of national road coverage city insets and practical reference tables places it firmly within the tradition of mid-century commercial cartography where petroleum companies functioned as informal navigational publishers. As a pre-1967 issue the map also preserves a geopolitical snapshot valued by collectors of modern Middle Eastern cartography. <br /> <br /> Contextual / Historical Significance: Produced during Israel's first two decades of statehood the map reflects early efforts to standardize transportation signage and intercity travel. Sonol founded in 1953 and later sold by Mobil in 1969 was among the country's leading fuel brands and its cartographic material forms part of the visual and commercial record of Israel's early infrastructure development. There is no film adaptation or fictional tie-in. <br /> <br /> Subjects: Israel road system pre-1967 borders petrol-company advertising bilingual maps service-station ephemera mid-century travel cartography urban inset plans Cartography Middle Eastern History Transportation Ephemera.<br /> <br /> Bibliographic References: OCLC/WorldCat: record no. 1014137604 Comparative Sonol and regional petrol-company road maps 1950s-1960s on Roma cartographic listings online reference Merkaz le-mipui Yiśraʼel.; Sonol Israel, ltd. unknown

The author contends that the Jews are still a distinct people and that after their time of humiliation is past God will restore them. "Let us briefly examine the causes of their affliction and then their prospects of Divine mercy and of happier days yet in store for them." The chief cause of their affliction according to the author is their murder and rejection of Jesus Christ. The scriptures however contain unfulifilled promises of their restoration to the true faith and the prophecies of Daniel and others point to a time when these will be fulfilled. The author contends that the work of the Society is evidence that the tide is turning and that the Jews will come to Christ. Printed for the Society, by B. R. Goakman unknown
