This set belonged to Richard Machell, who was appointed, in 1770, to be domestic Chaplain to the household of William Henry Cavendish Bentinck, 3rd Duke of Portland. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W151 .

Madrid, Bernardo de Villa-Diego, 1680, 20 x 15 cm., pergamino de época, 8 hojas incluso portada a dos tintas + 70 págs. (Obra extremadamente rara que narra una conspiración ficticia perpetrada en Inglaterra en 1678, atribuida a miembros de la Iglesia católica con el fin de desacreditarlos en un escándalo público y basada en un supuesto complot papista que pretendía asesinar al rey Carlos II de Inglaterra y reemplazarlo por Jacobo II, su hermano de confesión católica). (Extremely rare. This Manifesto dated London, 3 January 1679 (p.39) and translated into Castilian by July of the same year, appeared at the height of the panic about the popish plot. Commissioned by a man of importance ("un gran sujeto"), the translation aimed to publicize the facts about the persecution of Catholics. The work provides detailed biographies of the principal inventor of the plot - Titus Oates, and of other key witnesses -- William Bedloe and his brother, Miles Prance and Stephen Dugdale. The details of the supposed conspiracy to assassinate the King are examined and the claims of the witnesses challenged. Particular attention is paid to the activities of Oates and the Bedloes in Spain, and their characters and conduct are discredited. The assertions of the Manifesto are supported by the evidence provided in five "Instruments": sworn testimonies by various Spaniards, English Merchants in Bilbao, a letter by Oates himself relating to the Bedloes and a letter of the Rector of the Irish College in Salamanca).
Very Good Persian First Edition of this extremely rare bilingual tractate including Prince Reza Khan's thoughts on Anglo-Persian agreement in1919. Mirza Reza Khan also known as Prince Rezâ Arfa', was a diplomat and poet of the late Qajar period who serviced in Constantinople. During his years of service abroad Reza became acquainted with a number of European political leaders. He was reported to entertain Russian sympathies and was certainly instrumental in negotiating the first Russian government loan to Persia, in 1317 / 1900. Nevertheless, he also appears to have supported the Anglo-Persian Agreement of 1919. In 1332 / 1914 he served as minister of justice (wazîr-e 'adlîya) in Tehran for about a year. This agreement in 1919 was a provisional agreement made between the British and the Persian governments which, if ratified, would have granted the British a paramount position of control over the financial and military affairs of Iran. From the days when Napoleon conceived the idea of invading India with the help of Alexander I, the Tsar of Russia, Great Britain contemplated with apprehension the invasion of India by Russia via Persia and Afghanistan. Under the Anglo-Russian Convention of 1907 (q.v.), which divided Persia into rival spheres of influence, southern Persia was assigned to Britain while Russia controlled the northern portion. Later, according to the terms of "The Secret Treaties of Constantinople" of 18 March 1915, Constantinople was promised to Russia, and England was allowed to incorporate within her sphere of influence the neutral zone of Persia.

Very Good English Original sepia-toned large-sized albumen print photograph of a group of soldiers of the 4th Troop, C Squadron of The Q.O.R.G.Y., probably taken before WW I. Mounted on cardboard. 29x24 cm. Descriptive words in English. Exceedingly rare and attractive photo shows 32 troops with their guns on horses, presumably in Britain, as evidenced by the topographic view in the background. The Queen's Own Royal Glasgow Yeomanry was a yeomanry regiment of the British Army that can trace their formation back to 1796. It saw action in the Second Boer War, the First World War, and the Second World War. RHQ and C Squadron moved to Egypt in June 1915, landing at Port Said on 22 June. In October they joined the 52nd (Lowland) Infantry Division at Gallipoli as dismounted troops and participated in the Gallipoli Campaign. In January 1916 they returned to Egypt with the division. In May 1916, RHQ moved to France and joined V Corps Cavalry Regiment. C Squadron remained with the division until August 1917 when it joined XXI Corps Cavalry Regiment, along with A Squadron, Hertfordshire Yeomanry and A Squadron, Duke of Lancaster's Own Yeomanry. In May 1918 it returned to Egypt for the rest of the war. (Wikipedia).

New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 13,5 cm). In English. 213 p. Ills. The 1877-78 Russo-Turkish War, known in Turkish sources by its Rumi date: '93 Harbi, has been thoroughly studied through political and military lenses. The mass exodus of hundreds of thousands of Ottoman subjects before the advancing Russian armies was a major humanitarian calamity, one with possibly more long-term historical consequences than the mere shifting of borders. Despite its significance, it has received relatively humble attention in the pages of history. This book attempts to illuminate a lesser known aspect of this subject, in particular, the general voluntary relief efforts on the part of the British people for the Ottoman refugees (the '93 Refugees). This book covers the activities of both the institutions and the prominent figures of this endeavor, against the background of humanitarian diplomacy. In doing so, it provides the reader with an intimate look into a "compassionate" episode in late 19th century Anglo-Ottoman history.
