For that reason, and because so much government documentary material has remained inaccessible, it has been badly neglected by professional historians... Provides a wealth of completely new material... The obscure beginnings of the intervention, November 1917 to August 1918, are thoroughly explained, and the role of Japan and Czechoslovakia Corps in the military strategy of the Allies is examined." - from dust jacket.

Per ogni giorno dell'anno sono ricordati gli eventi più importanti legati alla storia della Republica di Venezia.Il calendario è circondato da una bella cornice ornamentale incisa, nel tipico stile del Coronelli, dove entro delle monete sono raffigurate le piante di 24 città della Grecia, sotto il controllo di Venezia.L'opera, una separata pubblicazione, si vendeva presso la bottega dell'editore Domenico Padoani, situata a Rialto.Coronelli aveva già realizzato un calendario simile nel 1666. L'opera è assai rara e ne abbiamo riscontrato un solo esemplare conservato alla Marciana di Venezia.Incisione in rame, in ottimo stato di conservazione.

Member of a famous family of Como, was elected governor of the Papal States, in 1687 he also assumed the title of patrician of Venice. This almanac, for each day of the year, remember the most important events related to the history of the Republic of Venice. The calendar is surrounded by a beautiful ornamental engraved frame, in the typical style of the Coronelli, where the coins are represented by plants of 24 cities of Greece, mostly in Morea, under the control of Venice. The work, a separate publication, was published by the workshop of Domenico Padoani, in Rialto. Coronelli had already made a similar work in 1666.

New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (31 x 22 cm). In English and Turkish. 80 p., color and b/w ills. An 8200 year old map: The town plan of Çatalhöyük.= 8200 yillik bir harita: Çatalhöyük sehir plani. I was fascinated when I first saw the Catalhoyuk map, a heritage of 'Anatolian Civilizations' which has survived 8,200 years of history, while at the same time I was greatly disappointed that such a unique map was neither known sufficiently enough nor introduced to the cartographic scholars. It was for this reason that about two years ago, I decided to conduct research into the matter. However, as I was already involved in two research projects entitled 'The History of Turkish Mapping in the Republican Era' and 'Historical Relief Maps, ' respectively, it was not possible to find time for the Catalhoyuk map. Once I had completed these studies, I started to carry out my study on 'Piri Reis Kitab-i Bahriye' (Piri Reis and His Book of the Sea) , which has been continiuing for a few years, Thus, my study of the Catalhoyuk map had been delayed once again. When I saw the map once again, in early 1999, I decided that I could not wait any longer. Even though my continuing research would be delayed, I could not avoid giving priority to the study of the Catalhoyuk map.
