‎A History of the English-Speaking Peoples. COMPLETE SET IN PUBLISHER'S BRANDED BINDERS‎

‎Purnell 1971. 7 vols. sm. folio First Edition thus with very numerous photographs illustrations and maps throughout; in blue rexine binders gilt backs binders mildly bowed as usual else a very good bright clean set. In this set the outer series wrappers were discarded as intended; the bowing of the binders is due to sheer volume and weight of the contents. This major and profusely illustrated partwork was the result of several years of preparation with numerous contributors working to the editorial board comprising Mortimer Wheeler Hugh Trevor-Roper and A.J.P. Tayor - three of the most eminent historians of the period. The partwork was issued in 112 weekly parts intended to be housed in seven optional and separately issued branded binders. Consequently it required considerable time effort and motivation to acquire and bind a complete set. UNSURPRISINGLY COMPLETE SETS IN BINDERS ARE RELATIVELY UNCOMMON. Purnell, unknown‎

‎[PALESTINE NATIONAL LIBERATION MOVEMENT - PERIODICAL - ENGLISH].‎

‎Fateh. Vol. III no. 2.‎

‎Beirut: Palestine National Liberation Movement 1971. 42 x 29 cm. Folded. Numerous black-and-white photographic illustrations. Rare and remarkable periodical published by the Palestine National Liberation Movement or Fatah. This was a revolutionary group and later a political party founded in 1957 by Yasser Arafat 1929-2004 Khalil al-Wazir 1935-1988 and 3 or 4 others. The movement published numerous periodicals and pamphlets between 1968-1972 but Fateh is the most important one. Originally published in Arabic it was also issued in English from 1969 bi-weekly in French from 1970 monthly and in Italian from 1971 bi-weekly. We have not been able to find any other English issues of this periodical for sale anywhere else.The name of the group Fatah is an acronym in reverse for "Harakat al-Tahrir al-Watani al-Filastini" the Arabic translation of "Palestine National Liberation Movement". The intention of the founders was to create an organisation that was independent of governments and political parties with the goal to liberate Palestine through low-intensity guerilla warfare. It was part of several armed fights with Israeli and Jordan forces during the 1960s and 70s. Fatah modelled itself after the revolutionary groups of Algeria Vietnam and Cuba. On page 9 of the present issue of Fateh a large photo has been printed of a group of protesters holding signs with the images of the leaders of these revolutions which is a clear message to the reader.The present issue of Fateh contains numerous articles with news from or about Palestine and the movement. It was printed a few months after Black September the bloody clash between Fatah and the Jordanian army in 1970 during which thousands of Palestines were either killed or expelled from Jordan. The first few pages of the periodical are dedicated to this event and other clashes between the two groups that resulted from it. Other articles discuss a 10-hour battle near Tel Aviv the relationship between America and Israel and injustices against Palestinians. Of particular interest are the three powerful full-page illustrations. They were designed in 1970 and issued separately as posters. The first image of a rifle with an olive branch was designed by Natheer Naba'a who is only known for his posters for Fateh. The second image called "stolen smile" shows a photo of a group of determined children and was designed by Jassem el Zubeidy who is only known for this design. The last image is an illustration of a Palestinian woman with a moving text about Palestine designed by Palestinian artist Kamal Boullata 1942-2019.The periodical is somewhat browned and inkstained and the edges are slightly frayed. Otherwise in good condition.l The English language Fateh periodical is present in ca. 30 libraries worldwide not all possess all volumes issued 1969-1971 see WorldCat 1568957 145144012 72895793 1036673977 924471377 898713265; cf.
