Book: Black cloth title in green illustration of measuring utensils on pastedowns. Pictorial dust jacket. Binding a bit rubbed spine faded with small loss at head Very good minus. Six pages in ink on three leaves. 1 vols. 8vo. Letter from Baghdad 1946. Fascinating letter from editor May H. Beattie 1908-1997 editor of Recipes from Baghad published for the benefit of the Red Cross and later a widely published author on Persian and oriental carpets. Beattie describes its contemporary reception in cosmopolitan Baghdadi circles noting specific criticisms of contents and illustrations how the barbs affected some of the editors with report of discussions with an editor in the U.K and mention of a possible Arabic edition for local "middle class people". Beattie writes "At the moment rather between ourselves I have a most consuming passion to make a record of Baghdad women - I am finding out all sorts of things about their cosmetics tatooing hair dying & customs in general. I should think it will be almost impossible to extract any information from Baghdad "Society" but I am finding other sources in plenty and a card index is filling rapidly."<br/>Beattie who trained as a microbiologist had come to Baghdad with her husband in 1937; in 1946 they returned to England and so the book on Baghdad women was never completed. Beattie's career as a scholar of carpets began in the 1950s when she saw the shortcomings of earlier research. "Dr. Beattie transferred her scholarly training in one discipline to another" Mackie and assembled facts and "recorded manufacturing methods equipment patterns and functions of carpets."<br/><br/>With: Recipes from Baghdad with an Introduction by Her Majesty the Queen Mother of Iraq.

2002162482London: DGIA Ministry of Defence 2002. First edition stretching from Baghdad to Basrah and showing all of Kuwait. The sheet was likely issued to RAF pilots in the run up to the Iraq War and is printed on rayon for ease of use and durability. These charts produced by the Defence Geographic and Imagery Intelligence Agency feature many warnings about flying within controlled airspace in Iraq and Saudi Arabia. The RAF flew many missions over this region in the lead-up to the Second Gulf War and in Operation Telic. "The first documented intimations of UK involvement in the operation that became Telic can be traced to March 2002. In May the Chief of the Defence Staff CDS was advised of a potential RAF contribution to a future operation in Iraq comprising 88 fast jets and 38 support platforms - more aircraft than the RAF had deployed on a single operation since the First Gulf War and more in all probability than it will ever deploy again" Ritchie p. 5. A formal plan was drafted in August to overwhelm Hussein's government through multiple co-ordinated fronts of which the RAF's role was to eradicate the enemy air force destroy equipment support ground forces and strike important targets to shock the Iraqi people. According to the key there was another sheet issued charting northern Iraq. Single sheet of rayon 912 x 1300 mm colour map with key on recto and verso. Sometime folded and thinning along lines: a near-fine copy. Sebastian Ritchie "The Royal Air Force in Operation Telic: Offensive Air Power March-April 2003" 2021. unknown

1951182329London: Ordnance Survey 1951. Later editions marked "restricted" revised from those produced by the War Office in 1941-42 and with isogonals correct to 1953. They show the international borders between Iran and Iraq but warn that they are still under negotiation. These maps are in a variety of later editions all printed in 1951 Baghdad fifth; Basra eighth; Tehran third; Bushehr fourth. This was a critical year in Iranian politics as the country underwent the Abadan Crisis saw the assassination of Razmara and the election of Mosaddeq. In the same period Iraq saw a number of anti-government protests including the 1952 Iraqi Intifada against the Anglo-Iraqi Treaty. Over these years British and American forces kept close watch on the region's development and likely printed these maps printed on rayon as escape items to issue to forces in case fighting broke out. Escape maps were first introduced by MI9 during the Second World War designed to be easily smuggled into POW camps. They were printed on silk and for "good reasons: silk is flexible and durable in a way that paper is not and it is noiseless when hidden about one's person" Bond. They continued to be issued throughout the 20th century and into the modern day especially during the 1960s and the Vietnam War. 2 sheets of rayon 596 x 715 mm; 610 x 676 mm colour map on each side key on map of Tehran; text in English and French. Sometime folded edges fraying more so to sheet of Baghdad and Basra: a very good copy. Barbara A. Bond "Escape and evasion maps of World War II" The British Library 2016. unknown
