SCORTECCI Giuseppe -
Il “Diavolo pungente” .
Milano, 1938, stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 299/303 con illustrazioni. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.

Chapter XV: 'Stuart's Tree' has a dogear corner on leaf 275/6 which contains details of Stuart's graveside obelisk and makes reference to the Overland Telegraph: 'Survivors of the expedition to-day say that the telegraph scheme was constantly in the mind of the great explorer and he loved to predict that some of his party would live to see consummated the bridging of the continent not merely by telegraph but by railway'.

Case of the People of Western Australia in support of their desire to withdraw from the Commonwealth of Australia . and that Western Australia be restored to its former status as a separate self-governing colony in the British Empire.1934 Secession
Perth: Govt Printer: Fred Simpson. 1934. 1st ed. royal octavo. pp xviii 489 b/w & colour fold. maps half-bound in kangaroo retaining the original gilt titled silk moire boards professionally repaired new gilt leather spine label ownership in ink of Western Australian historian to ffep.

A beautifully bound copy in near fine condition. The 1934 'case for secession' failed and support for the Dominion League in the Western Australian community dwindled. The secession debate was reignited briefly in 1974 by mining magnate Lang Hancock with the formation of the Westralian Secession Movement. The movement was sparked in reaction to the centralist policy of the Whitlam Labor Government. However the movement failed to achieve prominence due to the strong economy at the time and disappeared as quickly as it emerged. Harrop 1st edition. Half leather.
