1930151871Beirut: Imp. Jeanne D'Arc 1930. A scarce handbook of French colonial rule in the Middle East First edition first impression of this scarce aide-mémoire compiled by the French High Commission for colonial administrators in its Syrian and Lebanese mandates. Copies appear in just eight institutions five French on WorldCat and in the Qatar National Library. The work opens with information on the costume character finances and nomadic patterns of different peoples followed by sections offering detailed discussion of tribes grouped into regions such as Damascus and its environs Alleppo Deir ez Zor and the Djebel Druze. To assist French colonial officials the work outlines the leadership and intertribal relations of each group while the map depicts where tribes are expected to be in winter and summer according to their nomadic patterns. With the size of each tribe's name on the map corresponding to their importance colonial officials could see at a glance how seasonal changes would impact French governance. The fluidity of nomadic movements across the boundaries of the mandate highlights the arbitrary and theoretical nature of colonial territory and borders and the extent to which French imperial authority was "illegitimate and thus unstable" Khoury p. 4. This copy is intriguingly inscribed on the front free endpaper in French "De la part de votre tout dévoué Dictionnaire géographique Beyrouth 23-12-31 Clerris " "On behalf of your totally devoted Geographical Dictionary Beirut 23-12-31 Clerris " with another ownership inscription below.

Rubbing and wear to extremities small split at foot of front inner hinge professionally strengthened with adhesive moderate foxing to top edge and contents folding map toned with crease to bottom right corner slightly affecting printed area map pocket well-preserved.

1940ABC_484251940. Contemporary embossed brown calf with flowers on the front and back board and an aluminium view of David's Tower and Jerusalem's old city wall embedded in the front board. Oblong album 30 x 20 cm. With 128 gelatin silver prints most ca. 6.5 x 9.5 cm. Beautiful album with 128 photographs of Egypt and Palestine present day Israel and the West Bank during the British Mandate. It was likely compiled by a British soldier who was stationed in the Middle East during the 1940s. Some of the photographs are numbered in the negative and may have been made by important photographers active in the area at the time like G. Eric Matson and his wife Edith the founders of the Matson Photo Service. The images show Cairo and various locations in Palestine including Jerusalem Bethlehem Nazareth Tiberias Sea of Galilee Nathanya Tel Aviv the Jordan river Haifa Beirut and the Dead Sea. Other than important locations like churches and gates the photographs also show many locals including for example street barbers in Cairo shepherds and farmers in Palestine and beautifully dressed women in Haifa. In the back of the work a few dried leaves from local plants have been mounted namely orange lemon fig eucalyptus grapevine and mulberry. The eucalyptus leaf still retains some of its scent.The edges and vorners of the boards are somewhat scuffed with some loss of material at the head and foot of the spine and around the edges of the embedded aluminium plate. The photographs mounted on the inside of the front board are slightly stained the fig leaf mounted on one of the final pages is damaged and the cyprus leaf is missing. Otherwise in good condition. unknown
