Mercer, John
The Squeaking Wheel or How I Learned to Stop Worrying About the French and Love the Bomb
103 pages. Former owner's information upon half-title page. English Canada's reply to the so-called 'French Fact." Imagine the English Canadians finally having their say about Quebec! There's a chuckle on every page - more than one on many occasions - to help make some of the uglier facts more palatable. A perffect blend of humour and history, of laughter and of shock. Perhaps the first real attempt by English Canadians to say a strong 'phooey' to all the French unrest in Quebec. Accomplished with sophistication and wit... agree with it or not... you'll be entertained greatly and probably slightly educated at the same time. Book

English City - The Growth and the Future of Bristol
88 pages. Profusely illustrated in black and white. "As a Firm which has been engaged in manufacturing in Bristol for over 200 years, we felt that we should like to make some contribution towards the re-birth of our city. A vivid, yet simple account of the main features of the story of Bristol - particularly at this time when we have lost so many records of the past - seemed appropriate. In order to give a clear idea of Bristol's historical development, we have attempted to present a cross-section of the life of the city at selected periods - 1200, 1500, 1750 and 1939... We have shown the destruction caused by the 'blitz', and said something about the plans and opportunities for the future." - From the Foreward by J.S. Fry and Sons Ltd. Front free endpaper all but removed. Prior owner's name upon remaining portion, else book unmarked. Title page just beginning to loosen. Average to above average wear overall. Book
