GREEN, W.S.
Recent Explorations in the Southern Alps of New Zealand.
8vo. 14 pages, plus a remarkable folding colour map. This is a complete issue of the Royal Geographical Society, published February 1884, in excellent condition, containing the above narrative, and historically valuable map. Item is in original condition, with blue wrappers, as issued, complete with all the ads. The color map map highlights the Great Tasman Glacier of Mount Cook, and its tributaries, also shows glaciers and summits which were named for Hooker, Freshfield, Haast, Darwin, Whymper, Francis Joseph, Malte Brun and Hochstetter. A recollection of mountaineering adventure and splendour, Green describes the perils and milestones of the first ever European ascent to reach the summit of Zew Zealand's highest peak - Aoraki (Mount Cook)! Three different approaches were taken, first by the ridge on the south side, unsuccessful though lending to spectacular photographic views, the second attempt being a delightful challenge, 17 hours of arduous climbing along the northern arête later named the Hochsetter Ridge. Finally, via the Ball, Freshfield, and Linda glaciers, the climbers reached their highest point of the peak on third attempt, and, being depleted of provisions, began the return to base camp to record their observations. William Spotswood Green (1847-1919) was an Irish reverend, climber and naturalist, specializing in marine biology. He was a member of the English Alpine Club and became a mountain climber, especially known in Canada and New Zealand. Together with Swiss hotelier Emil Boss and the Swiss mountain guide Ulrich Kaufmann, on 2 March 1882, William S. Green made the first recorded European attempt to reach the summit of Aoraki (Mount Cook) which is the highest mountain in New Zealand, reaching 3,754 metres. Ascending via the Tasman and Linda Glaciers, they arrived within 50 metres of the true summit before being forced back by inclement conditions. In the late 1880s he partook in a survey expedition in the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia. In 1883, the author published a full account titled, "The High alps of New Zealand, or a Trip to the Glaciers of the Antipodes with an Ascent of Mount Cook." (London, Macmillan and Co.)

University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2002. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Hydraulic mining was and remains controversial.It produced great wealth from the soil of California yet damaged the land in such a way that the scars will remain for eons. Great hillsides were denuded of soil by streams of water which boggle the imagination and the sediment which was washed away filled the streambeds of the valleys below causing flooding which decimated agriculture and inundated towns. This important new work the first book-length study of the subject provides a complete history of hydraulic mining its background and eventual demise. Mining techniques prior to the hydraulic period are described as are the inventions which followed. The only true invention of a completely new method of mining to be introduced in the California gold fields was hydraulic mining. Today it seems almost incredible that it took so long for someone to finally get the rather simple idea of using a hose and nozzle under pressure to wash down a bank of gravel. The author gives detailed treatment to the inventions and technology developed for hydraulic mining. The story of the particular mines of the litigation concerning them labor problems in them and individuals who played major roles in their operation are all discussed. The story of the richest gravel deposits in California located in the area drained by three major river systems-the American Yuba and Feather and also a smaller but strategically located stream known as the Bear River are closely chronicled. The region in Nevada County known as the San Juan Ridge considered by Waldemar Lindgren as the richest Tertiary gravel deposit in all of California receives special attention. A magnificent water system was constructed in the Sierra which thrust the mining industry into the forefront of engineering and technological advances-but the way would be plagued by trial and error disappointment and considerable failure. Neither a condemnation nor an apologia of hydraulic mining in California this book attempts an unbiased look at this most controversial of subjects. Although most of the research materials available for this study such as government mining publications were written by persons mostly sympathetic to the industry sufficient objectivity and balance have been maintained to help the reader come to a fair judgment regarding hydraulic mining. The author's notes and selected bibliography testify to the scope of the research materials utilized in this study. Illustrations and maps portray the mining areas and the tools and techniques used in hydraulic mining. The final court battles between the "anti-debris" forces and the miners is detailed and analyzed as the demise of hydraulic mining was accomplished by its foes. Powell Greenland is a fourth-generation Californian with a special interest in Western mining and the California Gold Rush. He has researched and presented numerous programs on mining and the Mother Lode and is the author of several articles dealing with these subjects. He has also authored an award-winning local history of Port Hueneme California where he resides. University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2002 hardcover

GREGORY OSIPOVICH BIENSTOCK, (1885-1954).
Pasifik için mücadele. I. ve II. kisim. [= The struggle for the Pasific]. Translated to Turkish by Kur. Yzb. H[amza] Gürgüç.
Very Good Turkish Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Turkish. 200 p., 9 numerous plans. Pasifik için mücadele. I. ve II. kisim. [= The struggle for the Pasific]. Translated to Turkish by Kur. Yzb. H[amza] Gürgüç. First Turkish Edition. Rare. Not in OCLC. According to the foreword, this translation were made by its French Edition. First Edition in English, 1936. Bienstock was trained as a lawyer. He was a Bolshevik during 1904-07 and then adhered to the Mensheviks, becoming one of the 'liquidators' in that faction. During the First World War, he and other Russian socialists, including his wife Judith Grinfeld and fellow Menshevik David Dallin, worked in the Institute for the Study of the Social Consequences of the War in Copenhagen that was run by Alexander Helfand (Parvus). He returned to Russia in 1917, and worked with the future Bolshevik economist Yuri Larin. He left the Soviet republic in 1918, but returned to live in Odessa in 1921-22, and was then arrested and deported from Soviet territory. He was a contributor to the Mensheviks' paper, the Sotsialistichesky Vestnik under the name G Osipov. Bienstock settled in Germany, and became active in the German Social Democratic Party in Berlin. Somewhat oddly, whilst he stood on the right wing of the Mensheviks, he adhered to the left wing of the SPD, joined the Zukunft grouping, and at one point sought a personal meeting with Trotsky. He also held a keen interest in mysticism and eastern religion, as can be seen in at least one of the six essays reproduced below. Bienstock wrote several books and pamphlets, including Deutschland und die Weltwirtschaft (Dietz, Berlin, 1931), Volk und Sozialdemokratie. Die innen- und aussenpolitischen Erfolge der Sozialdemokratischen Partei Deutschlands (Dietz, Berlin, 1932), Deutschland und Frankreich. Eine Europäische Auseinandersetzung (Werk und Wirtschaft, Berlin, 1932), Kampf um die Macht. Zur neuen Politik der Sozialdemocratie (Laubsche, Berlin, 1932), Zwischen den Weltkriegen (Zentralstelle fur das Bildungswesen, Prague, 1934, Europa und die Weltpolitik Die Zonen der Kriegsgefahr (Graphia, Karlsbad, 1936), The Struggle For The Pacific (Allen and Unwin, London, 1937 [.]. Turkish translator, Hamza Gürgüç was a Turkish soldier. After graduating from the Military Academy in 1933, he served in different positions with different ranks in the Turkish Armed Forces. He participated in the Dersim Operation in 1937. He was promoted to Brigadier General in 1961 and to Major General in 1965. (Source: Maxists Official Website).
