Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original color map. Elephant folio. (59x75 cm). In Ottoman script. [OTTOMAN MILITARY MAP of PATAGONIA and FALKLAND ISLANDS: ROUTE of DRESDEN] Alman kruvazörü Dresden'in takîbi ve tahrîbi. SMS Dresden cruiser's routes between 1913-1915 (World War 1) on the Patagonian shelf; western shores of South America, Patagonia and Falkland Islands. Dresden spent much of her career overseas. After commissioning, she visited the United States in 1909 during the Hudson-Fulton Celebration, before returning to Germany to serve in the reconnaissance force of the High Seas Fleet for three years. In 1913, she was assigned to the Mediterranean Division. She was then sent to the Caribbean to protect German nationals during the Mexican Revolution. In mid-1914, she carried the former dictator Victoriano Huerta to Jamaica, where the British had granted him asylum. She was due to return to Germany in July 1914, but was prevented by the outbreak of World War I from doing so. At the onset of hostilities, Dresden operated as a commerce raider in South American waters in the Atlantic, then moved to the Pacific Ocean in September and joined Maximilian von Spee's East Asia Squadron. Dresden saw action in the Battle of Coronel in November, where she engaged the British cruiser HMS Glasgow, and at the Battle of the Falkland Islands in December, where she was the only German warship to escape destruction. She eluded her British pursuers for several more months, until she put into Robinson Crusoe Island in March 1915. Her engines were worn out and she had almost no coal left for her boilers, so the ship's captain contacted the local Chilean authorities to have Dresden interned. She was trapped by British cruisers, including her old opponent Glasgow. The British violated Chilean neutrality and opened fire on the ship in the Battle of Más a Tierra. The Germans scuttled Dresden and the majority of the crew escaped to be interned in Chile for the duration of the war. The wreck remains in the harbor; several artifacts, including her bell and compass, have been returned to Germany.

Very Good Turkish Original albumen print mounted on cardboard. 21x48 cm. Handwritten Turkish note at the lower on empty section. Dated July 19, 1937. Slight fading on board. The photo is in very good condition. It was very significant both politically and militarily showing a Turkish war fleet visiting the British navy in Valletta, the capital of Malta, in 1937. The commander of the fleet was Admiral Sükrü Okan (1880-1957). The Turkish fleet consisted of the cruisers and destroyers named Yavuz Selim, Adatepe, Tinaztepe, Kocatepe, and Zafer, as well as four submarines and the submarine mothership Erkin. This very scarce photograph shows the Turkish fleet with the English fleet in the Valletta port on July 19, 1937.
New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. In special slip-case. 4to. (30 xx 22 cm). In English, with the Turkish transcription and the reprint of the original Ottoman text. 639 p., color ills. Book of navigation. [= Kitab-i bahriye]. Project coordinator: Nurettin Güz. Consultant: Halil Inalcik. Edited by Bülent Ari. Translation from Ottoman: Ahmet Demir. English translation by Ercüment Ozden, Fadime Özden, Akgun Ilhan. [English Edition]. "Kitab-i Bahriye of Piri Reis is authentic and important in that it shows the historical, geographical, ecological, social, cultural and natural characteristics of the lands it talks about in addition to the information he gives in the area of Turkish science and navigation in 16th century. We appreciate this work giving detailed information in many areas not only for our people but for universal culture also. The fact that the information in this book is not only for the interest of Turks but also for many other nations, and that it is not only about one part of the world but also about most of the known parts of the world including America shows us another characteristic of Kitab-i Bahriye. This work should be published again for the development of culture of tourism and for the purpose of directing young generations into the area of Turkish navigation".
