193943900Moscow: V.V Kuibyshev Military Engineering Academy. 1939. Hardcover. Very Good. 4to; 37 ff & 13 ff. plates pages; Typescript versos only of quarto sheets -- carbon. Thirteen plates which appear to be photographs of the original text's illustrations mounted to plain paper sheets. In a contemporary binder citron buckram covers metal hinges retaining leaves at the gutter margins -- pale blue endpapers. Bookplate of the former Army Map Service Library / 6500 Brooks Lane / Washington DC. This is a translation into English of a Russian publication from 1939. Originally published by the Voyenno-Inzhanernoy Akadamii imeni V.V. Kubsheva Moskva 1939. This is an English translation by an unnamed writer or writers. Part of a vast program of wartime translations of technical publications from various sources. The introduction to the text pays considerable attention to the importance placed by V. I. Lenin on military cartography and map making in general. The main text is largely historical although similar texts covering much of this same ground rarely point out the observations of Marx and Engels on the discovery and mapping of America. The first title page is a transliteration of the Russian original. On this there are Army Map Service stamps in ink and blind each cancelled with a faint blue "X". Also the familiar "Surplus Duplicate" stamp of the Library of Congress Gift and Exchange Division appears in red ink. The Army Map Service bookplate is also cancelled with a faint "X" in blue pencil as is the small shelf label entirely handwritten in black ink -- mounted to the upper left hand margin of the front cover. Both shelf label and bookplate state that this was "Copy 2." The Army Map Service formed during the Second World War has undergone several changes of name and now is absorbed into the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency NGA. If any of these entities or the Army Corps of Engineers has retained "Copy 1" of this publication they have not shared this information with OCLC or any other gathering of records which we were able to consult. A rare and interesting "book" -- not least because the Soviet Union may have already entered into the infamous Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact when this original Russian text was published in 1939. By the time the U.S. Army Map Service was formed this pact was rendered null and void by the Nazi invasion of the USSR in Operation Barbarossa. . V.V Kuibyshev Military Engineering Academy hardcover

The first article produced on the eve of Indian independence begins: 'Moscow radio broadcast an account of a lecture given by Corresponding Member of the USSR Academy of Sciences Zhukove on "The Situation in India" at the Polytechnical Museum in Moscow.' It proceeds with a summary of Zhukov's lecture the view he expounds including the following: 'Britain's new policy derives from the economic changes which took place in India during the years of the Second World War. India's big bourgeoisie made profits from the war and have become richer and at the same time more compliant towards Britain. The bourgeoisie's fear of the popular masses is greater than their fear of Britain.' The second articles is pure propaganda beginning: 'A vast territory of over 1158000 sq. miles lies in the North-East of the Soviety Union. In Tsarist days it was known as "the Siberia of Siberia." It is now the Yakut Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic - a part of the Russian Federation - which is just celebrating the 25th anniversary of its foundation says a TASS message.'

1958055782Cairo: The USSR Embassy Press Office in the United Arab Republic UAR 1958. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Contemporary full green cloth in Egyptian style contemporary white endpapers gilt lettering of title on front board and gilt decorations on spine. Original pictorial cover saved inside. Roy. 8vo. 24 x 17 cm. In Arabic. 88 p. 12 b/w ills. including drawings and reproduced photographic plates. Extremely rare unrecorded first issue of this Soviet propaganda organ published in Cairo the centre of the UAR by the USSR Propaganda Press Office with a striking cover design depicting the Sputniks in space celebrating the third anniversary of the Kosmicheskaya programma SSSR. The content begins with a comparison between the Soviet and American satellites. A full-paged photograph shows the Muscovites reading newspapers about the launch of the third Soviet satellite into space. In the periodical many details such as the construction processes and technical specifications of the satellites are explained as well as a striking history of the Soviet Space Program. Relations between Russia and Egypt have a long history dating back to before the 16th century. In the 1950s Gamal Abdel Nasser's independent and anti-imperialist policy earned him enthusiastic support from the Communist government of the USSR. In 1955 Egypt made a major arm deal with the Soviet Union and from then teams of Egyptian officers were trained in Eastern Bloc countries. Czechoslovak instructors also came in 1956 to train Egyptian personnel in the use of Soviet weapons. When France attacked Egypt during the Suez Crisis the USSR threatened to use destructive weapons i.e. nuclear weapons for the defence of Egypt. The degree of the Soviet approval of the Egyptian leader's policies culminated rather controversially in the award of the highest Soviet decoration the star of the Hero of the Soviet Union with the Order of Lenin to Nasser during Nikita Khrushchev's visit to the country in 1964. Kosmicheskaya programma SSSR i.e. The Soviet Space Program was the national space program of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics USSR active from 1955 until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. After WWII the Soviet and US space programs both utilized German technology in their early efforts. Eventually the program was managed under Sergei Korolev who led the program based on unique ideas derived by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky sometimes known as the father of theoretical astronautics. Contrary to its American European and Chinese competitors who had their programs run under a single coordinating agency the Soviet space program was divided and split among several internally competing design bureaus led by Korolev Kerimov Keldysh Yangel Glushko Chelomey Makeyev Chertok and Reshetnev. The Soviet space program served as an important marker of Soviet claims to its global superpower status. Wikipedia.

P5852Moscow: Ministerstvo elektrostantsii SSSR 1958. Oblong folio 24.5 × 36 cm. Original silver embossed blue cloth with blue printed dust wrapper in protective card case; 197 pp. Illustrated profusely from photographs in black and white with captions. Small closed tears to front and back dust wrapper; card case rubbed and lightly soiled; lacking titl leaf; else a very well preserved copy. This impressively illustrated album exhibited at the Soviet Pavilion during the Brussels World's fair in 1958 is filled with maps graphs drawings and photographs that tell the story of the electrical production of the Soviet Union. The album opens with a famous quotation from Lenin: "Communism is Soviet power plus the electrification of the whole country." The following pages contain graphs indicating rapid growth of electrical production maps that show the reach of electrical power and photographs of the enormous machines that service major urban centers like Moscow as well as entire regions like the Don Basin DONBAS. Typical for the Thaw and in contrast to similar albums form the heydays of the 'five year plans' all mentions of Stalin are conspicuously absent and the album is focused on images over text clearly trying to appeal to an international audience in keeping with new international policies of Nikita Khrushchev 1894-1971. Khrushchev came to power after the death of Stalin in 1953 and in his 1956 "secret speech" denounced Stalin's cult of personality and isolationist policies setting in motion the period known as the Thaw 1956-1968. Changing the international image of the Soviet Union was a major focus for Khrushchev and he saw international participation in cultural events as key. The Soviet presence at the Brussels World's fair in 1958 was a great success with the Soviet pavilion winning a grand prix and exhibiting among other technological innovations a facsimile of Sputnik a satellite that had gone into space in the previous year. Another grand prix went to the Volga Hydroelectric Station Volga GES images of which are richly represented in this album. unknown
