LYOD, FRANK - PARAMOUNT.
Wells Fargo (Un mondo che sorge).
Paramount, Usa, 1937. Fotobusta, colore, cm 49,5 x 70. Strappi marginali. Tra il 1840 e il 1865, la Wells Fargo divenne la prima ditta di diligenze a collegare la costa statunitense occidentale a quella orientale. Non tutto andò per il verso giusto, e Ramsay MacKay (Joel McCrea), ideatore dell'impresa, dovette risolvere più di un problema.Il film racconta la saga della Wells Fargo, la ditta di trasporti con diligenze che per prima stabilì un collegamento fra la costa atlantica e il Pacifico. L'azione copre circa trent'anni, dalla febbre dell'oro in California fino alla chiusura della frontiera del West. Western di stampo classico e dal taglio introspettivo che si prefigge di riflettere sulla conquista territoriale come sfida personale. Girato con dovizia di dettagli e una notevole ricostruzione storica, "Un mondo che sorge" non riesce a staccarsi da una certa esaltazione nazionalista che lo rende un inno al patriottismo americano. Il regista lavora su stereotipi e poco sulla personalità dei suoi personaggi, che risultano privi di sfumature e omologati gli uni agli altri. Film ottimo dal punto di vista produttivo ma carente sul piano dei contenuti. .

VIRGINIA MAPS ATLASES & GEOGRAPHY MAP OF THE DOUTHAT SURVEY: CONTAINING 102000 ACRES SITUATED IN THE COUNTIES OF BATH AND ALLEGHANY VA
Staunton Va: Julius Bien & Co. M. A. Miller 1877. Very Good binding. Dissected linen-backed map in color; 118 x 48 cm 43-1/4" x 18-3/4". Some marginal tears but very little loss.~~The Douthat Survey was produced in 1877 under order of the U.S. Circuit Court for the Western District of Va. by M. A. Miller C.E of Staunton. ~~The survey was made for Hon. Peter McLaren preparatory to purchasing valuable mineral lands for mining ore in that region. The extensive tract of land near Covington Virginia was bought by McLaren a Canadian; he acquired with that purchase leases to mines operated by the Alleghany Mining Company that shipped ore to the Low Moor Iron plants at Covington. Because McLaren was a non-resident the Commonwealth derived no tax revenues from the mining operation. Consternation ensued: "The great value of these properties is beyond question yet neither the owners or the lessees pay any income tax to the state" see Journal of the House of Delegates State of Virginia Session 1893-'94; House Doc. No. 3 p. 5.~~. Very Good binding. Julius Bien & Co. | M. A. Miller unknown books

M. AMIN ABDULLAH.
The idea of universality of ethical norms in Ghazali & Kant.
Very Good English Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In English. [xvi], 296 p. The idea of universality of ethical norms in Ghazali & Kant. This book deals with the theory of ethics, as it is formulated by Ghazali and Immanuel Kant. Their theory of ethics is critically examined to delinate its similarities, differences and consequences. Kant's rational ethics, in essence, is only the consequence of having such an Analytical Method in the basic framework. The term 'rational' here is not intended at all to leave no room for religious ethics. It is rather intended to emphasize the active, dynamic and autonomous role of moral agents in attaining virtues. While Ghazali's mystical ethics is merely intended to save the individual in the hereafter based on the teaching of a particular religious teaching. He does not concern to build such a rigorous methodology in ethics which is applicaple to human beings in general. His concern is mainly to defend a particular religious ethics.

Reveals the men who made the ledends: the dynamic H.R. MacMillan a penniless Ontario farm boy who parlayed a small lumber brokerage firm into a billion-dollar corporation owner of the largest chartered fleet of cargo ships in the world; J.H. Bloedel one of the great lumber entrepreneurs of North America; strong-willed J.V. Clyne former judge who took MB into Europe Asia and the southern U.S.; Calvert Knudsen a 'team' man hired to revive MB after the company's shipping business collapsed in 1975 and the company faced its first traumatic losses.
