THE RIVER PALACE.
Toronto: Dundurn 2008. 248 pp large 8vo 9" H. B&w photographs reproductions drawings. "Steamboats carrying passengers from Hamilton to Montreal via the rapids of the St. Lawrence were a popular sight in the latter half of the nineteenth century. In 1855 the 'Kingston' an iron steamboat built for John Hamilton appeared on the Great Lakes. When the Prince of Wales later Edward VII toured British North America in 1860 the 'Kingston' became his floating palace for much of his time between Quebec and Toronto. While many steamboats claimed to be floating palaces the 'Kingston' truly was one. The 'Kingston' was wrecked many times and survived spectacular fires in 1872 and 1873. Late in her career she was converted into a salvage vessel and renamed the 'Cornwall'. In 1930 she was finally taken out and sunk near one of Kingston's ship graveyards. There she remained until diver Rick Neilson discovered her in 1989. Today the once-palatial 'Kingston' is a popular dive site and tourist attraction." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - clean and bright. First Edition. Soft Cover. Fine. Dundurn Paperback

Méthodes de lutte orientale
Minerva 1995 168 pages in4. 1995. Cartonné. 168 pages. Ils s'étaient connus en 1944 à leur sortie de l'ombre... L'un paysan communiste autodidacte d'esprit missionnaire s'engageait dans le militantisme syndical et politique l'autre étudiant frustré de sa course aux diplômes s'élançait dans le journalisme de témoignage comme correspondant de guerre. Durant 40 ans ils se retrouvèrent ainsi aux quatre coins du monde le premier à la pointe des hautes affaires de l'agro-alimentaire le second à l'avant-scène du grand reportage. Et fidèles à leurs origines ils revenaient se replonger ensemble avec délices dans la fraîcheur intacte de leur première rencontre. Mais brutalement à la sortie d'un hiver -cinq autres déjà- sonna l'heure de la dernière... Et le paysan dit à l'étudiant : Si les médecins ne se sont pas trompés qui m'accordent de six mois à un an de vie je viendrai chez toi dans les Pyrénées en mai et nous finirons de parler tous les deux sur ta terrasse face aux sommets... Neuf jours après hélas il s'en allait... Alors surmontant sa peine et ses scrupules et avec l'appui de témoins de tous bords humbles ou grands l'étudiant s'est décidé à combler ce mou de conversation. Car il connaissait le désir profond du Gavroche de Noé qui avait relevé l'extravagant défi de jouer au milliardaire rouge : Je compte sur toi pour que l'on sache un jour qui j'étais vraiment... La révélation dans toute la rigueur de l'amitié est bouleversante
