Also, a Journey from Persia to England, by an Unusual Route [...]. London, Edward & Charles Dilly, 1773.‎

‎Large 4to. XII, 506 pp. With 2 folding maps and 13 plates. Modern red calf retaining original giltstamped spine label. First edition. - The British surgeon Edward Ives travelled to East India on an Admiral's ship in 1754. After working at a local hospital for a while, he returned to England in 1758. His return route through the Middle East was the same as that chosen, but a few years later, by Carsten Niebuhr: from Basra via Hille, Baghdad, Mosul, Diarbekr, Biredjik, and Haleb to Latakia. He met with Mubarak bin Sabah, the Sheikh of "Grane" (Kuwait): "In connection with Kuwait, Ives's text is especially important for the insight it gives into the economy of caravan traffic and Kuwait's place in it. Many sources present Kuwait as a port, oriented towards the sea. Ives shows another side of Kuwait. We see that the Shaikhs of Kuwait are quite mobile individuals, travelling to Syria with their camels. The Shaikh is landbound, occupied with caravans [...] The seaward side of Kuwait's economy was [...] controlled by the Al-Khalifa family" (Slot, 135). In addition, Ives was the first author to provide a detailed description of the ruins of Ktesiphon, previously visited by Pietro della Valle (cf. Henze). "Ives' presence at many of the transactions which he describes and his personal intimacy with Watson give his historical narrative an unusual importance, and his account of the manners and customs of the countries he visited are those of an enlightened and acute observer [...] The appendix contains an 'Account of the Diseases prevalent in Adml. Watson's squadron, a description of most of the Trees, Shrubs, and Plants of India, with their medicinal virtues'" (Cox). - Insignificant browning; a good copy. Howgego I, P117. Wilson 107. Diba 115.

‎Around the World to Persia. Letters Written While on the Journey as a Member of the American-Persian Relief Commission in 1918. New York, printed only for private circulation among friends (by the New Era Printing Co., Lancaster, PA), 1920.‎

‎8vo. (2), 76 pp. , final blank leaf. Cloth-backed boards with paper title labels on front cover and spine. Privately published collection of letters from wartime Persia in 1918, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper: "To Maddalene and Murray Franklin with love from Kate Jackson". - Kate Jackson wrote a series of letters to her sister in the United States while she and her husband were travelling "to Persia as members of the American-Persian Relief Commission": while "quite personal in character, they present a picture of experiences under somewhat unusual conditions and during a very memorable period" (from the prefatory note by A. V. Williams Jackson). Few copies were printed, not for publication, but intended simply to be given to friends. - In the letters themselves, Jackson discusses studying Persian, her voyage via Japan and Bombay, being the only woman on a troopship up the Tigris, meeting Syrian and Armenian refugees on the way out of Baghdad, and the reports she has heard on the Armenian genocide, and describes the celebration of the Armistice in Tehran. - Covers somewhat worn, otherwise an inscribed copy in good condition.

‎JACOBS MATTHEW F‎

‎Imagining The Middle East: The Building Of An American Foreign Policy 1918-1967‎

‎University of North Carolina Press Chapel Hill: 2011. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. As its interests have become deeply tied to the Middle East the United States has long sought to develop a usable understanding of the people politics and cultures of the region. In Imagining the Middle East Matthew Jacobs illuminates how Americans' ideas and perspectives about the region have shaped justified and sustained U.S. cultural economic military and political involvement there. Jacobs examines the ways in which an informal network of academic business government and media specialists interpreted and shared their perceptions of the Middle East from the end of World War I through the late 1960s. During that period Jacobs argues members of this network imagined the Middle East as a region defined by certain common characteristics - religion mass politics underdevelopment and an escalating Arab-Israeli-Palestinian conflict - and as a place that might be transformed through U.S. involvement. Thus the ways in which specialists and policymakers imagined the Middle East of the past or present came to justify policies designed to create an imagined Middle East of the future. Jacobs demonstrates that an analysis of the intellectual roots of current politics and foreign policy is critical to comprehending the styles of U.S. engagement with the Middle East in a post-9/11 world. Matthew F. Jacobs is assistant professor of history at the University of Florida. "A provocative book full of extraordinary archival research Imagining the Middle East is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the background to America's collision with radical Islam during the last quarter of the twentieth century." - Douglas Little Clark University author of American Orientalism: The United States and the Middle East since 1945 "Jacobs takes a novel compelling approach to the broad American experience in the Middle East during the formative years of U.S. national involvement there. This book makes a major contribution to the growing literature on the history of U.S. official and non-official interaction with the Middle East in the middle twentieth century." - Peter Hahn professor of history The Ohio State University University of North Carolina Press, Chapel Hill: 2011 hardcover‎

‎Jacquesson, Ernest, French civil engineer (1831-1860).‎

‎"Voyage en Égypte et en Palestine: notes et souvenirs". Autograph manuscript. N. p., 1856-1857.‎

‎Folio (ca. 200 x 292 mm). French manuscript on lined paper with calligraphed title. (174) pp. on 90 ff. in two loose fascicles (45 ff. each). Stored together with a 1920s typescript copy of the same text, (2) + 39 + 20 pp. on 62 ff., in modern half-calf portfolio with gilt title to spine in a cardboard slipcase. The original manuscript of Jacquesson's travelogue of Egypt and the Levant, written in connection with the preparations for the building of the Suez Canal (1859-69) and published in 1857. The civil engineer Ernest Jacquesson had travelled to Egypt together with Ferdinand de Lesseps, the father of the Suez Canal, and other members of the "Commission Internationale pour le percement de l'isthme de Suez" founded in 1855. In the preface, Jacquesson announces that he shall not write about the Canal project, as his friend, the politician and journalist Jules Barthélemy-Saint-Hilaire, has already published "a series of highly interesting articles" on the subject, but will rather focus on "observations of the country, the mores and customs of its inhabitants, and on gathering interesting peculiarities" that he personally witnessed. The subsequent trip to Palestine is set in a context with the Crimean War: "At the current moment all eyes are directed towards Egypt [...] and towards Palestine considering the reforms that the new state of affairs, resulting from the Crimean War, will bring there imminently". - The journey lasted from November 1855 to April 1856, leading from Alexandria to Cairo, Upper Egypt, Nubia, via Alexandria to Jaffa, Ramla, Jerusalem, Jericho and back to Paris via Jerusalem and Marseille. Jacquesson and his company visited the most important monuments of Egypt and the Holy Land. On 30 November 1855 they enjoyed an audience in Cairo with Mohamed Sa'id Pasha of Egypt, who held a military parade in honour of his French guests. According to Jacquesson, de Lesseps introduced him and his companions individually to Sa'id Pasha. - As Jacquesson states in the preface, his notes had been previously published in the "Journal de la Marne" between June and September 1856, dating the present fair copy to between late 1856 and 1857. - Both covers somewhat dusty and soiled. The first fascicle shows a very minor waterstain affecting the right margin of a few pages; the cover leaf has several tears (partly affecting the title), some of which are restored. Some browning and stains overall, minor tears to the margins. The accompanying typescript is on French typewriter paper watermarked "Johannot et Cie Extra Strong", produced between ca. 1913 and 1936, showing punched holes and occasional light staining. Altogether in excellent state of preservation. E. Jacquesson, Voyage en Égypte et en Palestine: notes et souvenirs (Paris, J. Best, 1857).‎
