‎PAUL ROHRBACH, (1869-1956).‎

‎[BAGDAD RAILWAYS / EASTERN QUESTION] Hatt-i saltanat: Bagdad demiryolu. [= Die Bagdadbahn].‎

‎Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In modern aesthetic cloth bdg. Foolscap 8vo. (18 x 12 cm). In Ottoman script. 122, [3] p., 1 map of Baghdad railways. The Baghdad Railway, also known as the Berlin-Baghdad railway was built from 1910 to 1940 to connect Berlin with the then Ottoman city of Baghdad, from where the Germans wanted to establish a port on the Persian Gulf, with a 1,600 kilometers (1,000 mi) line through modern-day Turkey, Syria, and Iraq. Completion of the project took several decades and by the outbreak of World War I, the railway was still 960 km (600 miles) away from its intended objective. The last stretch to Baghdad was built in the late 1930s and the first train to travel from Istanbul to Baghdad departed in 1940. Funding, engineering, and construction were mainly provided by the German Empire through Deutsche Bank and the Philipp Holzmann company, which in the 1890s had built the Anatolian Railway (Anatolische Eisenbahn) connecting Constantinople, Ankara, and Konya. The Ottoman Empire wished to maintain its control of the Arabian Peninsula and to expand its influence across the Red Sea into the nominally Ottoman (until 1914) Khedivate of Egypt, which had been under British military control since the Urabi Revolt in 1882. If the railway had been completed, the Germans would have gained access to suspected oil fields in Mesopotamia, as well as a connection to the port of Basra on the Persian Gulf. The latter would have provided access to the eastern parts of the German colonial empire and avoided the Suez Canal, which was controlled by British and French interests. The railway became a source of international disputes during the years immediately preceding World War I. Rohrbach was a Baltic German writer, concerned with "world politics." Paul Rohrbach, the Settlement Commissioner for Germany's colonies in Southwest Africa from 1903 to 1906 and one of the most outspoken promoters of German imperialism, reflected on this international attraction, stating that "the history of the plans of the Baghdad Railway has stood on its own moment in high grade under the effects of political history, Turkish or otherwise. Not only England, [but] especially also Russia take at the outset the right of defense through several claims" in this study. Hegira 1331 = Gregorian 1915. Özege 7050. First and Only Edition.‎

‎Portrait photographique d'Henri Victor Altmayer (1844-1930), archevêque de Bagdad de 1887 à 1902. Le prélat est représenté en pied, portant un habit ecclésiastique avec une croix en sautoir, la main gauche posée sur un livre et la main droite ornée de l'anneau épiscopal.Né à Bouzonville (Moselle) en 1844, Henri Victor Altmayer fit ses études au collège Saint-Clément de Metz. En 1862, il entra dans l'Ordre des Dominicains et fut ordonné prêtre en 1869. Après avoir participé à la guerre de 1870-1871 comme aumônier, il devint, en 1874, le secrétaire de Mgr Louis-Marie Lion, nonce apostolique pour la Mésopotamie, le Kurdistan et le Proche-Orient. Arrivé à Mossoul en juillet 1874, le Père Altmayer s'occupa des écoles, des congrégations, des offices de la communauté latine. Après le décès de Mgr Lion, survenu en 1883, il lui succéda l'année suivante, date à laquelle il reçut la consécration épiscopale.Devenu délégué apostolique pour la Mésopotamie, le Kurdistan et la Basse-Arménie, il fut nommé, en 1887, archevêque de Bagdad, poste qu'il occupa jusqu'en 1902. Comme à Mossoul, il s'occupa des établissements d'enseignement et des communautés religieuses. Il réconcilia l'église chaldéenne avec le Saint-Siège, mais échoua à faire de même avec l'église nestorienne. Rentré en France, il mourut à Levallois-Perret (Hauts-de-Seine) en 1930.Intéressant et rare document‎

‎Buch in guter Erhaltung, Einband sauber und unbestoßen, stellenweise gering kantenberieben, Seiten hell und sauber, ohne Einträge, Buchblock fest, A bestselling author chronicles the military life, his experiences in the Gulf War with vivid accounts of combat training before the war, and reflects on life, family, duty, honor, love, and remembrances of combat missions into the heart of Baghdad. Ein Bestsellerautor beschreibt sein Leben als Soldat, seine Erfahrungen im Golfkrieg, die Kampfausbildung vor dem Krieg und seine Reflexionen über Leben, Familie, Pflicht, Ehre, Liebe sowie Erinnerungen an Kampfeinsätze im Herzen Bagdads. Der Vortrag von Robert Stanek stammt aus einem einzigen amerikanischen Land und wurde von ihm mitgenommen, bevor er sich freiwillig zum ersten Mal im Golfkrieg meldete. Es erinnert an die langen Stunden des Jahres, an die Routine und an die Momente der Erde, die einem Team in einem fliegenden Helikopter übergeben werden konnten, das auf dem Weg zum Kampfsieg trainiert wurde. Ohne zitternde Gefühle ist die Aussage gegenwärtig und balanciert zwischen Handlungen und Gefühlen.‎
