Publisher's original lemon cloth upper cover gilt-lettered in Arabic. With the unclipped dust-jacket showing a map showing the Gulf States. Book with 25 plates and 2 folding maps. Accompanied by 7 loose folding maps and genealogical tables ranging from 70 x 54 cm to 36 x 49 cm. Some light wear to maps and charts the book itself with just some trivial light spotting to edges generally an excellent copy in a well preserved jacket. First edition first printing of this study of the Arabian Peninsula in the late 18th and early 19th centuries examining the early history of the United Arab Emirates and Oman much enhanced by photographs of the forts of the Gulf and reproductions of paintings depicting battles and complete with large loose genealogical charts showing the descent of ruling families of the United Arab Emirates and Oman including the Nahyan Qasimi and Busa'id families. The period between 1793 and 1818 marks a turning point in the history of the Gulf as the First Saudi State expanded and came into conflict with Oman and the British signed treatises with the leaders of the region. The author begins by surveying the history of the Busa'id family in Oman the confederation of Bani Yas and the Qawasim. Next he examines the eastwards expansion of the First Saudi State and the spread of its influence including the alliance between it and Ra's al-Khaima. The British decision to become militarily involved in the Gulf is presented here as the result of a desire to limit the influence of the Saudis and Wahhabism. After studying the conflict between the Saudis and the Omanis the author discusses the fall of the First Saudi State at the hands of the Ottomans and the lasting impact that the alliances formed during this period had on the emirates of the UAE. The author's research is augmented with the text of the treatises signed between the East India Company Oman and the Emirates between 1789 and 1820. The author Muhammad Morsi Abdullah was a leading historian of the emergence of the United Arab Emirates; he was awarded his doctorate at Cambridge for a thesis on the modern history of the UAE after which he returned to his work in Abu Dhabi as Director of the Documentation and Studies Center in the Office of the President of the United Arab Emirates. In 1969 Abdullah published the book "Abu Dhabi Between Yesterday and Today" as well as a map of the emirate of Abu Dhabi. In 1972 he participated in the crucial project of making the first map of the United Arab Emirates itself. Fittingly the present work was issued with seven large maps and charts alongside the book which is itself illustrated with two folding maps and numerous photographic plates providing a visual history of the UAE.

19215128Lafayette Ala: The Church 1921. Octavo 22.5 x 15 cm. 44 xvi pages. Advertisements. Title from cover. Evident FIRST EDITION. A church cookbook with more than 250 recipes many attributed. Most entries adhere to the reliable conventions promised by the title but there are also such glimpses of the geography as Pecan Cake requiring two and a quarter pounds of pecans a custardy Burnt Almond Cream Banana Fritters and Squash Cakes. ~ Though not the earliest congregations in Alabama the so-called Primitive Baptists – the “church of the people†who eschewed hierarchy and claimed personal experience of the spirit as ultimate authority – dominated among the Christian communities by the middle of the nineteenth century. Since the decade when True and Tried Recipes appeared the First Baptist Church of Lafayette in Chambers County a stone’s throw from the Georgia border has been remembered as a bastion of the Southern Convention the spiritual home of several Alabamians who served as representatives of their state in Washington not the least of whom was Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black 1886-1971. ~ Stapled in brown wrappers titled in black. Owner’s name in pencil on cover: “Bess.†One recipe corrected in ink. Near fine. Unrecorded. OCLC locates no copies; not in Brown Cagle or Cather. The Church unknown
19155685Ensley Alabama: The Church; Printed by Garrison Printer 1915. Octavo 21 x 13.5 cm. 89 i pages. Advertisements. Index and “Index of advertisements.†Date of publication estimated from external evidence. Evident FIRST EDITION. A church cookbook from a once independent municipality at the moment of its absorption into greater Birmingham. Nearly three hundred recipes some of them attributed; including: English Currant Bread Poached Eggs with Creamed Celery Fried Okra with Onions Artichoke à la Barigoile i.e. Barigoule Creamed Parsnips Cherry Salad Savory Custard Prune Trifle Chelee Sauce Rhubarb Relish Scuppernong Wine Coffee Jelly Watermelon Preserves. ~ Located at the southern edge of the Pratt Coal Seam Ensley was a planned industrial city built on land acquired by Enoch Ensley 1832-1891 to provide housing as well as communal and commercial infrastructure for workers employed in the coal and iron ore mines of the Tennessee Coal Iron & Railroad Company. Residents’ experience in self-governance was short: the city was incorporated in February 1899 but annexed by Birmingham on the first day of 1910. Opposition to the takeover was vigorous – a mock funeral was held and a tombstone laid to commemorate the “euthanized†city – such that the persistence of the community’s independent identity works against clarity regarding the appearance of the St. John’s Cook Book. Advertisements for two theaters equipped to exhibit silent films place the range of dates across the annexation divide: both – that for the Belle Theatre on page 2 and that for the Franklin Theatre on page 28 – announce adherence to guidelines set forth by the National Board of Censorship a name for what became the National Review Board in use only between late 1909 and 1915. ~ The history of Episcopalians in Alabama cannot be separated from the history of advocacy for slavery nor from the influential tenure of the Confederate episcopate of Richard Hooker Wilmer 1816-1900 an ardent proponent of secession. Unlike Methodists Baptists and Presbyterians Episcopalians did not divide over issues surrounding abolition. While their numbers declined in the later nineteenth century – Wilmer though under house arrest for demonstrations of hostility against the United States president was still permitted to serve as bishop – they retained the loyalty of landholders and industrialists. Thus the upper echelons of Ensley grew sufficiently to merit the establishment of a parish which was admitted into the Diocese in 1898 just before formal incorporation of the city. Images of the church for which funds were raised by the Ladies of St. John’s are not listed among the archival holdings now deposited at the Birmingham Public Library. The brick complex that stands at the site today on Ensley West Avenue was built in 1951. The parish having dissolved in 2000 this building was listed for sale in 2016. ~ One abrasion along fore-edge of text block. Stapled in publisher’s green wrappers titled in black over brown cloth.

19435466Florence Alabama: The Church 1943. Octavo 23 x 15.5 cm. 171 v pages. Advertisements. Errata list page 1. Cover title. Table of contents. Third Edition. A generous helping of more than nine hundred recipes clearly an act of perseverance to review and produce during wartime. Southern favorites stand in relief: Cracklin Bread Hush Puppies Ambrosia Daube Glacé Cabbage Au Gratin Creole Peas Fried Bananas Black Bottom Pie Pecan Cake. But this is a substantial revision of the second edition and the Women of Trinity Guild were noting with interest recipes from beyond their immediate sphere as much as was the case anywhere else. Three early instances of Italian-American spaghetti exemplify the cuisine's transition from "peasant" food to household staple. Florence is a well-known constituent municipality of The Shoals in Alabama's northwestern corner the birthplace of W. C. Handy and by extension it is often said the birthplace of the Blues. The seat of Lauderdale County the city and the surrounding region had become prosperous through its abundant access to water power early in the nineteenth century. Though not the first Episcopalian congregation established in Alabama – Anglicans had already settled in Mobile and Tuscaloosa – Trinity Church founded in 1836 and still an active community lays claim to the title of oldest parish in the Tennessee Valley. Several handwritten corrections in pencil otherwise clean and bright internally. In stapled black-lettered red wrappers worn at the corners and with some good sized chips to the spine. Front panel of wrapper is illustrated with a photograph of Wesleyan Hall University of North Alabama. Good only. Scarce. OCLC locates three copies of the present revised edition and one copy of the first edition 1929; a copy of the second edition 1931 is also known; none of these editions is included in Brown Cagle or Cather.

19315467Florence Ala: The Church 1931. Octavo 22.5 x 14.5 cm. x 151 xxix pages. Advertisements. Table of contents. Stated Second Edition likely a corrected printing of the first edition. An evidently well-received collection of nine hundred recipes following closely upon the first edition of only two years previous with the same 151 pages. Southern favorites stand in relief: Southern Egg Bread Okra Gumbo Bishop Whipple Pudding Ambrosia Owendaw Asparagus Loaf Blackeye Peas Elder Blossom Wine Creole Pralines. But it would be misleading to truncate the story there for the Women of Trinity Guild could venture out as eagerly as their counterparts elsewhere from Almond Bisque and Lobster Canapes to Queen of Trifles and Banberry sic Tarts. Marginalia on page 110 comments on the Sponge Cake fine “…grand but a lot of workâ€. For more local color an advertisement on the rear of wrappers is for “Dowdy’s Pit Bar-B-Q Fish-Chili Lee Highway.†~ Florence is a well-known constituent municipality of The Shoals in Alabama’s northwestern corner the birthplace of W.
