‎IRAN ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES: AN AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY BACKGROUND STUDY‎

‎Whitestone NY: Griffon House Publications 1991. PB. fine wraps softcover review press release author inscribed. ISBN 0918680441 In this book the author focuses on the problem of how the United States can maintain effective daily relations with avowedly theocratic countries like Iran and Israel whose leaders are ultimately committed to the hegemony of "God's chosen people" rather than a traditional balance of power--an equilibrium of mutually respecting nations that would curb the possibility of unilateral action. 404pp. Griffon House Publications unknown‎

Splendid contemporary giltstamped green morocco with fillets, dentelle border, and a central pointillé ornament adorned with flower buds. Spine, leading edges and inner dentelle attractively gilt.

"Since Lady Mary Wortley Montagu probably no woman has acquired so intimate a knowledge of Turkey [... Her] works, written [...] in a pleasant and graceful style, attracted a large share of notice, and, as popular history, may still be read with pleasure" (DNB). - First published in 1838 with only 78 plates; later editions were published under the title "Picturesque Europe" (1854 and 1874). The pretty views are engraved after William Henry Bartlett (1809-54), whose series of oriental and American topography were then very popular (cf. Thieme/B. II, 554). - Occasionally slightly browned or foxed (more so in four plates). Binding insignificantly rubbed at corners and raised bands, otherwise very nicely preserved. BLC 246, 438. DNB 15, 201, 5.

‎Parfit, Joseph T[homas].‎

‎Among the Druzes of Lebanon and Bashan. London, Hunter & Longhurst, 1917.‎

‎8vo. VIII, 252, (2) pp. With 16 black-and-white photographic plates. Original green cloth, gilt lettering to spine and black lettering to front cover. First edition. - An account of missionary work in Mount Lebanon, with a description of the Druze people, their history and their faith. Parfit narrates "seven years' work amongst the secret sects of Syria", focusing on the establishment of mission schools in the mountainous lands south and east of Beirut, where many Druze communities were based. To the main narrative of school-building and teaching, he adds much on relations between the Druzes and other communities (including animosities with the Maronites), and significant events such as the dangerously severe Winter of 1911. - The book is attractively illustrated with the author's photographs and each chapter is preceded by a line from "Arabian Wisdom", a collection of Qur'anic quotes and proverbs compiled by John Wortabet. - Very light wear to extremities, corners slightly bumped, very good otherwise. Endpapers browned, a few instances of spotting, rest of interior clean and bright. Ownership inscription of Marian Parfit of Westcot, near Wantage, Berkshire, to front free endpaper and her bookplate to front pastedown. The Arab History: A Bibliographical List (Cairo, 1966), p. 132. OCLC 250774345.‎

‎Paris, Charles, French draughtsman (fl. 1890s).‎

‎Signed and dated pencil drawing of a dressage scene with two Arabian horses. N. p., 1897.‎

‎33 x 44 cm (neat line). Pencil on paper. Charming dressage scene between an Arab in back view and two bridled Arabian horses with luxurious saddles and a backdrop of tents. The stallion on the left is carrying a round shield and a bow. The signing artist Charles Paris was probably an amateur and is not otherwise known. - Professionally restored. The upper and right margins show traces of tears and brittleness, probably due to old water damage. Browning and minor foxing overall. Some light spotting to the lower margin. The drawing is little affected by the paper flaws.‎

Else a fine copy. ~ A fascinating small book written and photographed by the Senior Chaplain to the Forces Egyptian Expeditionary Force with the intention to provide His Majesty's soldiers with a handy book of reference to Palestine and the Holy Land. The book contains a relatively large number of plates depicting ancient and new towns and villages holy shrines landscapes historical monuments and sites and some inhabitants. Most fascinating are the images of pure military interest: a derelict tank; a cannon named "Jericho Jane"; and a mobile gun nicknamed the "Finish Turk". Reverend Payne's text is a wonderful combination of historical background actual information traveller's notations and Biblical contemplations. He previously wrote "Jerusalem the City of the Great King" which was meant to serve as a guide book to Jerusalem. Both these books were sold in army canteen huts. In his Foreword Philip W. Chetwode Late Commanding 20th Army Corps Palestine writes: "I feel sure that all soldiers who find themselves now or in the future serving in Palestine will be grateful to him for having provided them with such a useful book which cannot fail to add to the interest of the time they spend in the Holy Land."
