New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 133 p. The autobiography of Dr. Henri Griladze (b. 1938), one of Turkey's pioneering neuro-psychiatrists, is presented in this book. Beginning with the emigration of his father from Georgia to Turkey in the first years of the 20th century, the book chronicles Dr. Griladze's pleasant childhood years in the then-polyglot Istanbul suburb of Baglarbasi; witnessing the change of the district and the city over the decades; moves on to his education, training and career of over forty years in psychiatric hospitals in Istanbul and beyond; his pioneering research on sleep and psychometrics; his encounters with ultra-nationalists, nosy journalists and other extraordinary characters; and concludes at Dr. Griladze's modern-day clinic, where he has worked privately since 1974. Richly illustrated with photographs and annotated with footnotes that explain local nuances, this book will be interesting to scholars of Turkish medical and psychiatric history; the history of Istanbul's Baglarbasi district; and enthusiasts of the memoir genre in general.

Very Good English Modern full dark red leather bound with traditional embossing. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In German. [viii], 351 p. First German Edition. This copy from Zeki Velidi Togan's library. Ármin Vámbéry, also known as Arminius Vámbéry was a Hungarian Turkolog and traveller. Vámbéry was especially attracted by the literature and culture of the Ottoman Empire including Turkey. After spending about a year in Constantinople, he published a German-Turkish dictionary in 1858. Later, he also published various other linguistic works. He also learned some twenty other Turkish languages and dialects. Returning to Budapest in 1861, he received a stipend of a thousand florins from the academy, and in the autumn of the same year, disguised as a Sunni dervish, and under the name of Reshit Efendi, he set out from Constantinople. His route lay from Trebizond on the Black Sea to Tehran in Persia, where he joined a band of pilgrims returning from Mecca, spending several months with them traveling across Central Iran (Tabriz, Zanjan, and Kazvin). He then went to Shiraz, through Ispahan, and in June, 1863, he reached Khiva (Central Asia). Throughout this time, he succeeded in maintaining his disguise as "Reshit Efendi," so that upon his arrival at Khiva he managed to keep up appearances during interviews with the local khan. Together with his band of travelers, he then crossed Bokhara and arrived at Samarkand. Initially, he aroused the suspicions of the local ruler, who kept him in an audience for a full half-hour. Vámbéry managed to maintain his pretences, and left the audience laden with gifts. Upon leaving Samarkand, Vámbéry began making his way back to Constantinople, traveling by way of Herat. There he took leave of the band of dervishes and joined a caravan to Tehran, and from there, via Trebizond and Erzurum, to Constantinople, arriving there in March 1864. This was the first successful journey of its kind undertaken by a European; and since it was necessary to avoid suspicion, Vámbéry could not take even fragmentary notes, except by stealth. After a long and perilous journey he arrived back at Pest in May 1864. He went to London to arrange the English language publication of his book about the travels. "Travels in Central Asia" and its Hungarian counterpart "Közép-ázsiai utazás" were published in 1865. Thanks to his travels Vámbéry became an internationally renowned writer and celebrity. He became acquainted with members of British social elite. The Ambassador of Austria in London gave him a letter of recommendation to the Emperor, who received him in an audience and rewarded Vámbéry's international success by granting him professorship in the Royal University of Pest.

Very Good Turkish Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Turkish. 4 volumes set: (192p.; 218 p.; 320 p.; [xxii], 210 p.). Eski Türk yazitlari. 4 volumes set. (Kül Tegin - Bilge Han - Tonyukuk - Ongin - Ihe Hüsotü - Iki Uygur yaziti). This work brings together all the Paleo-Turkish inscriptions and all the known writings in so-called 'runiform' (runic) characters, in particular the inscriptions of Mongolia (including those of the Orkhon) and of Siberia (including those of the Yenisey). Illustrated with numerous photographs or lithographs of the texts, provided with numerous annotations, it reproduces, for the essentials, the interpretations and translations of Thomsen, Radloff, Ramstedt, Samoilovitch, Le Coq, and Maloff, while quite often adding hypotheses specific to the editor and which were generally suggested to him by reading Kasgari. The difficult problems concerning the ancient inscriptions are far from being all elucidated: This edition, as useful as it is, cannot therefore be considered as definitive, and it will take a long time before "the eternal stone" has give all his secrets. The fact remains that by publishing reproductions of almost all the texts and by collecting the documentation of the best publications, the editor has done great service to Paleo-Turkish epigraphic studies. Despite its imperfections, the glossary that constitutes fourth volume is very useful. First Edition. Rare.
