Bell’edizione stampata a Basilea, di questo classico studio, uscito per la prima volta nel 1786, del celebre storico, tutor e letterato scozzese, John Gillies, nato a Brechin , nel Forfarshire nel 1747. Alla morte di William Robertson (1721-1793) , Gillies fu nominato storiografo reale per la Scozia . Nella sua vecchiaia si ritirò a Clapham , dove morì il 15 febbraio 1836. L’opera qui presentata, dedicata al Re d’Inghilterra, ricostruisce attentamente la storia della Grecia antica e della conquista delle sue colonie ma con un occhio attento a mal far figurare la turbolenza ed instabilità della vita repubblicana. Esemplare in bella legatura e non comune in quest’edizione di Basilea corretta ed aumentata rispetto alle precedenti. Buon esemplare.

Twelve hundred British soldiers isolated on the small island of Kheros off the Turkish coast, waiting to die. Twelve hundred lives in jeopardy, lives that could be saved if only the guns could be silenced. The guns of Navarone, vigilant, savage and catastrophically accurate. Navarone itself, grim bastion of narrow straits manned by a mixed garrison of Germans and Italians, an apparently impregnable iron fortress. To Captain Keith Mallory, skllled saboteur, trained mountaineer, fell the task of leading the small party detailed to scale the vast, impossible precipice of Navarone and to blow up the guns. The Guns of Navarone is the story of that mission, the tale of a calculated risk taken in the time of war. [A story inspired by the Battle of Leros] This novel was the basis of an exciting movie in 1962 Book
