London England, Quarted Books, 1997. First Edition, Binding: Cloth, Fine/Very Good./fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 070437109X Hardback Major Derek Cooper O.B.E., M.C., has served with distinction as a soldier and been a tireless aid-worker and advocate of the rights of Palestinians. This biography is remarkable as a portrait of a man of intense personal bravery with a passionate commitment to a sense of justice. It was his fascination with the politics of the Middle East which dominated this second career and from the Iranian earthquake in 1962 to Beirut at the height of the war in 1982, he was always at the front line and has never shirked controversy. This is a fascinating portrait of a courageous man who fought tirelessly for justice for Palestinians at a time when their plight was almost never questioned in the West. Illustrated........ .

BAYNES, JOHN.

Morale: A Study of Men and Courage. The Second Scottish Rifles at the Battle of Neuve Chapelle 1915.

Cassell, London, 1967.. 286 pp, 8vo (8 1/2" H), hard cover in dust jacket. Ex-library. B&w photographs, maps/battle plans. "Morale is as important to a nation in peace as it is in war, on the factory floor and in an office as in a warship or a bomber's crew, in a trade union as in a regiment. In our complex, unstable times, it is vital that we should seek to understand more of morale, what it can attain and how it can be achieved. For this reason alone John Bayne's fascinating sociological study would be an inva luable contribution to the literature of an alarmingly neglected subject. But Major Baynes has a uique and rewarding approach. He has taken a sample community of proven morale and then dissected it tissue by tissue, examining each under the micros cope of his keenly analytical and lively mind. His 'sample' is the 2nd Scottish Rifles, a battalion of that magnificent professional Army with which Britain entered the First World War. At the Battle of Neuve Chapelle in March, 1915, when it went 'over the top' it was some 900 strong. Six days later the battalion marched out of the line, still a fighting, disciplined unit. It was 150 strong and was commanded by a second-lieutenant. What enabled those men to keep their spirit, their tenaci ty and dash in those awful six days, so graphically recreated here, was their morale. Major Baynes has interviewed the know survivors of the battle and analysed hundreds of books, reports and private papers pertinent to his 'sample'. He examines t he social background of the officers and men, their service, their homes, their education, upbringing, beliefs and attitudes. With the advantage of hindsight, he has evaluated their inter-relationships, their loyalties, and the rules and convention s by which they lived. The result is a stimulating book, important in areas far removed from the bloody fields of Flanders."
