Gordon, John
The Grand Old Game : A Century of Golf in Canada/Pour Le Plaisir Du Jeu - Un Siecle de Golf Au Canada
176 pages. "When the representatives of six Canadian golf clubs met in Ottawa 100 years ago to discuss creating a national administrative body that would organize and run the country's national golf championship, none of them could have foreseen the tremendous impact the Royal Canadian Golf Association (RCGA) would have on golf in Canada... A book that captures the spirit of those early meetings and propels us through the rich history of golf in this country. Accompanied by compelling photographs from the RCGA archives, Gordon's book celebrates the accomplishments of Canadian golfers past and present as well as highlighting the extraordinary moments in Canadian golf from George Lyon's gold medal at the 1904 Olympics to Canada's stunning victory at the 1994 Dunhill Cup." - from dust jacket. Bilingual English/French text. Small faint pencil erasure upon front endpaper. Gift greetings upon half-title page. No other markings. Light wear to book and attractively illustrated dust jacket.

GREAT GAME
Collection of autograph letters and manuscript material concerning moves during the First Anglo-Afghan War.
Kabul and elsewhere: 1837-41 & 1859. Correspondence chess A carefully assembled collection of material connected to players in the "great game" including Colonel Stoddart and Captain Arthur Conolly both famously beheaded at Bukhara Major Henry Rawlinson the political agent at Kandahar and Captain Sir Alexander "Bukhara" Burns. The material mounted on album leaves with accompanying newspaper clippings and other ephemera is tied together by Connolly and Stoddart's dramatic death. Sent on a mission to secure an agreement of friendship between Britain and the Emir of Bukhara in 1838 Stoddart was arrested by the emir on charges of spying and imprisoned. Conolly the intelligence agent credited with coining the term "great game" in an 1840 letter to Rawlinson arrived in Bukhara in late 1841 to negotiate his compatriot's release. Both men were killed in June 1842 and became household names back home. In the first two letters Burns writing about a year before he was killed by a mob in Kabul shares his views with Rawlinson on the latest moves in the "great game". He writes of Stoddart's short-lived release from prison and of the importance of Conolly's current intelligence-gathering in Central Asia. Shah Shuja "is surrounded by a parcel of harpies" and Burns advises caution about the use of British troops to prop up the Shah's rule: "Nothing contributes so much to lower the King's power as the employment of our troops against Afghans & I would avoid it if possible." As for Lord Auckland the governor-general "does not have great faith in the sincerity of Russia in abandoning her Khiva designs but it gives us time." The third letter from Conolly to Rawlinson discusses local news and offers a lighter-hearted window onto the life of a political agent far from home. He has swapped the diplomatic chessboard for the card table: "We miss you very much - especially at whist" the previous night's rubber being "stale and flat but not unprofitable for I won 9 rupees." This letter is mounted with a page of Stoddart's notes on taking navigational bearings which Stoddart gave to Rawlinson before departing for Central Asia in 1837. The final piece touches on the wider appeal of the Stoddart-Conolly story. Writing to the Cornish baronet Sir Hugh Molesworth almost two decades later Dr Joseph Wolff mentions his second expedition to Bokhara mounted to ascertain the fate of the two men and how the profits from the two editions of his best-selling Narrative of a mission to Bokhara 1845 were sufficient to finance a parsonage and schoolhouse in his living. a Sir Alexander Burns to Major Henry Rawlinson 21 December 1840 Kabul.

GREAT GAME
Large military wall map of Central Asia and the Turkestan Military District revised and corrected up to 1881.
St Petersburg: Cartographic Institute of the Military-Topographic Department of the General Staff 1881. The cartographic climax of the "great game" Second edition significantly improved from the first edition 1877 to incorporate the latest military intelligence from field surveys. This magisterial work of "great game" cartography was presented at Russia's Tashkent military headquarters to the daring French explorer Stanislas Benoist-Méchin during his epic 1881-3 overland journey from Beijing to Europe. We have traced no other copies. A presentation inscription on the verso of the map reads in French "To Mr Baron Benoist-Méchin from Generals Kouropatkine and Levaschew October 1882 Tashkent." Benoist-Méchin 1854-1923 began travelling the world as a young man and then served as the French cultural attaché in Tokyo 1880-1. In 1881 he decided to return to Europe via the daring route through Central Asia. Leaving Beijing on 15 September with his regular travelling companion Comte Humbert Adrien de Mailly-Chalon 1853-1921 he journeyed through Manchuria and across Russian Siberia. In 1882 having reached Kashgar they received permission to cross Russian Turkestan spending six weeks in Tashkent as the honoured guests of General Mikhail Tchernayev the architect of Russian's expansion across Central Asia General Aleksey Nikolayevich Kuropatkin 1848-1925 and the aforementioned General Levaschov likely the artillery officer Vladimir Levaschov 1834-1898. After reaching Samarkand they travelled in extreme cold through Bukhara and via Khiva to Tehran reaching Moscow in October 1883 where they were accorded a hero's welcome. Their descriptions of this feat of exploration were published in 1885 in the Bulletin de la Société de géographie. This map was made for the use of the Russian military high command in St Petersburg and in the Turkestan Military District which had been established in the 1860s amid the occupation of Tashkent and Bokhara and dates from a period following the Second Anglo-Afghan War and the Battle of Geok Tepe when tensions were at their height. It encompasses almost the entire playing surface of the "great game" extending east-west from Xinjiang and Tibet to the Caspian Sea and Afghanistan and north-south from Siberia to northern India. Unparalleled in terms of accuracy and detail it names every city town and village and the legend has entries for such features as fortifications railways mail and caravan roads and mines. Spot heights are given in feet and deserts are marked with a light red pattern. It is much improved on the first edition which had only 48 panels and did not extend as far south. Chromolithograph map 195 x 200 cm dissected onto 64 sections and mounted on linen as issued laid-down printed slip stating "corrected up to 1881" small folding tab at right edge. Folding away to 28.5 x 28 cm. Housed in green quarter morocco solander box with chemise by the Chelsea Bindery. Map surface generally clean and brighta few stains toning and soiling at edges small repair at top-left edge verso foxed and with couple of areas of linen reinforcement: very good. unknown
