ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.

The Great Escape. With Drawings by Ley Kenyon. 'TO THE FIFTY'. NEAR FINE COPY IN UNCLIPPED DUSTWRAPPER
8vo., First Edition, with 16 plates on 8, 6 illustrations and plans (5 full-page) and full-page map in the text; salmon cloth, backstrip lettered in blue, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. The original account of arguably the greatest POW story of WWII - the escape of no fewer than seventy-six Allied POW's from Stalag Luft III at Sagan in March 1944. Known ever since as the 'Great Escape', it was a gallant endeavour with a sordid ending, and has inspired a minor industry of research and publication, including John Sturges' immensely successful (though heavily fictionalised) feature film of 1963 starring Steve McQueen and Richard Attenborough. For a more recent update (incorporating the latest official documentation) see Burgess's 'The Longest Tunnel' (1990). AN UNDISPUTED CLASSIC OF WWII AND VERY SCARCE INDEED IN THIS CONDITION.

Brigadier Bernard Edward Fergusson (1911-1980), [Baron Ballantrae] [Lord Ballantrae], military historian and Governor-General of
BaronTyped Letter Signed 'Ballantrae' from Lord Ballantrae Baron Ballantrae to Antony Brett-James of Sandhurst on topics including his editing of 'The Oxford Book of Military Anecdotes' and his wife's death.
On his letterhead Auchairne Ballantrae Ayrshire. 29 March 1980. 1p. 4to. 30 typed lines with the last two lines in autograph. In good condition on lightly-aged and creased paper. Brett-James is addressed as 'Head of Department War Studies & International Affairs Royal Military Academy Sandhurst'. He begins by explaining why he cannot attend a conference at Sandhurst: 'On the morning of the 11th The Queen is coming to open the fourth and latest housing estate of The Scottish Trust for the Physically Disabled of which I am the Chairman in Edinburgh and I must obviously be there: still more so because although I had no hand in this it is to be named after my wife who established the Trust in 1972 and who was killed in an accident four months ago'. He praises the conferences 'programme and cast of lecturers': 'Incidentally I have read Ronald Lewin's book on Wavell in typescript and in my view it is as good as anything he has done.' The Oxford University Press 'in its mercy' has given him 'a year's grace' over the delivery of the typescript of his anthology. 'Furthermore I have been given lodgings in a Grace & Favour house in London which will enable me to spend all next winter there with easy access to libraries.' He praises Sandhurst Library as 'one of the best organised and most congenial to work in' and hopes 'to spend some time there during the winter months using it as a quarry'. He asks if Brett-James and his staff could 'keep a weather eye lifting for possible material' being 'a great believer in Serendipity'. On his letterhead, Auchairne, Ballantrae, Ayrshire. 29 March 1980. unknown

Brigham, Carl C , Foreword By Robert M Yerkes
A Study Of American Intelligence
Princeton: Princeton University Press 1923. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/No Dust Jacket. Charts Throughout. Xxv 210 Pp. Black Cloth Gilt. First Printing 1923 Date On Title Page Copyright 1922 And Forewoird Dated June 1922. Cloth With Some Rubbing Especially At Corners But Gilt Brilliant No Fraying Hinges Solid But Spine Leaned Former Owner's Name In Ink On Front Pastedown With A Few Pencil Notes In Text And Pencil Graph On Blank Rear Endpaper. Excellent Evidence Of The Single-Minded Emphasis In American Education On Preparation For Aggesive Military Action- Unfortunately Not Unlike Every Other Contemporary Country Purportedly A Report On Trends In Intelligence Of The American Population Based Largely On Statistical Results Of The Wwi Army Testing Program And Interpretations Based On Then-Current Racial Stereotypes And Theories Citing Madison Grant In Particular And Was Written As An Anthropological Study By A Person Who Admits Almost No Anthropological Study Or Training. The Author Is Primarily Concerned With "Americans" "Immigrants" And "Negroes" Never Considering That The Classes Are Neither Exclusive Nor Of Any Scientific Validity. Often Cited This Notorious Study Is Itself Quite Scarce In This First Edition First Printing. Worldcat Records Only 7 Institutional Holdings Although The 1975 Reprint Is Commonly Encountered. No Corresponding Contemporary Study Of Similar Trends Of American Knowledge Skills Or Abilities In Any Field Other Than Those Studied Here That Is Preparation For Modern Soldiering - Americans Make "Better Soldiers" So We Should Restrict Immigration Severely So All Immigrants Will Most Closely Resemble Native-Born Americans Isn't That What The Gorillas Say About Immigrants Into Their Areas Per Wikipedia Carl Campbell Brigham May 4 1890 - January 24 1943 Was An American Eugenicist And Professor Of Psychology At Princeton University's Department Of Psychology And A Pioneer In The Field Of Psychometrics. Brigham Joined Princeton As A Faculty Member In 1920 And Began Working On Adapting The Army Mental Tests For Use In College Admissions.7 This Test Became Highly Controversial As A Methodology For Testing Mental Ability Due To Its Biases Favoring Caucasian White Native-Born Americans. In 1923 Brigham Published His Influential Book A Study Of American Intelligence. Analyzing The Data From The World War I Army Mental Tests Brigham Concluded That Native-Born Caucasian Americans Had The Highest Intelligence Out Of The Groups Tested. He Proclaimed The Intellectual Superiority Of The "Nordic Race" And The Inferiority Of The "Alpine" Eastern European "Mediterranean" And "Negro" Races And Argued That Immigration Should Be Carefully Controlled To Safeguard The "American Intelligence". Brigham Believed That In The Early Years Of The Twentieth Century American Intelligence Was Declining Because Of Recent Immigration Waves From Eastern Europe "Carl Campbell Brigham: The Man Who Devised The Sat". Harvard Professor E.G. Boring Suggested That Brigham Was Not Collecting Data With Scientific Purpose Which Biased His Results In Favor Of His Ideas 1923. He Sat On The Advisory Council Of The American Eugenics Society Later Known As The Society For Biodemography And Social Biology1 And His Early Writings Heavily Influenced The Eugenics Movement And Anti-Immigration Legislation In The United States. He Created The Sat For The College Board. His Wikipedia Portrait Photo Bears An Uncanny Resemblance To A Gorilla. <br/> <br/> Princeton University Press hardcover
