L'esercito britannico nella prima guerra mondiale.
Il 5 maggio 1980, il mondo assistette al colpo di mano dello Special Air Service (SAS) contro l'ambasciata iraniana di Londra. Salutato dal Primo ministro Margaret Thatcher come "un'operazione brillante", il blitz si rivelò un notevole successo e permise il salvataggio di 19 ostaggi grazie a un intervento condotto in modo quasi perfetto, anche se due dei prigionieri furono uccisi dai terroristi.

Autographed 1897 Civil War General McClellan: A Paper Read Before the Iowa Commandery; Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States
Kenyon Press 1897-01-01. Leather. Acceptable. Signed by Author. This copy is AUTOGRAPHED by the Author on the blank free front endpage in pencil - 'Presented to Col F. G. Gounnon by the Author.' That last name is difficult to make out. Autographed but not Signed in that the author wrote the above note in his own hand but didn't Sign his name merely writing 'by the Author' instead. Not an entirely uncommon thing to do in that era. Full leather limp boards. Fair 2 of 10 top corner water-stained. leather chipped at all edges and detached from boards at edges - still attached at spine. B&W author frontis plate with tissue guard. Bagged for protection with a stiff backing board. 41 pages. illustrated endpages. Gilt cover title thin - no title printed on the spine. Only 9 copies of this book are shown on worldcat. This might be the only Autographed copy yet existent. George Brinton McClellan December 3 1826 – October 29 1885 was an American soldier civil engineer railroad executive and politician who served as the 24th Governor of New Jersey. A graduate of West Point McClellan served with distinction during the Mexican–American War 1846–1848 and later left the Army to work on railroads until the outbreak of the American Civil War 1861–1865. Early in the conflict McClellan was appointed to the rank of major general and played an important role in raising a well-trained and organized army which would become the Army of the Potomac in the Eastern Theater; he served a brief period November 1861 to March 1862 as general-in-chief of the Union Army. McClellan organized and led the Union army in the Peninsula Campaign in southeastern Virginia from March through July 1862. It was the first large-scale offensive in the Eastern Theater. Making an amphibious clockwise turning movement around the Confederate Army in northern Virginia McClellan's forces turned west to move up the Virginia Peninsula between the James and York Rivers landing from the Chesapeake Bay with the Confederate capital Richmond as their objective. Initially McClellan was somewhat successful against General Joseph E. Johnston but the emergence of General Robert E. Lee to command the Army of Northern Virginia turned the subsequent Seven Days Battles into a partial Union defeat. However historians note that Lee's victory was in many ways pyrrhic as he failed to destroy the Army of the Potomac and suffered a bloody repulse at Malvern Hill.

CHARLES DE GAULLE
MEMORIE DELLA SPERANZA IL RINNOVAMENTO 1958-1962 LO SFORZO 1962...
RIZZOLI 1970 E 1971 RISPETTIVAMENTE 273 E 114 PP. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLE SOVRACCOPERTE, VOLUMI PERFETTI, PROBABILMENTE MAI SFOGLIATI Primo e Secondo libro delle memorie dell'uomo che ha impresso una piega indelebile al corso della storia della Francia e del mondo nel XX secolo. E mentre il primo volume è dedicato al Rinnovamento (1958-1962), questo secondo volume che avrebbe dovuto coprire interamente gli anni dal 1962 al 1965, si intitola Lo sforzo e si ferma al 1964. Lo sforzo, secondo le parole di de Gaulle stesso, era soprattutto quello di far sì che “ la Francia conservi ma in maniera durevole, non momentanea - l'unità, la potenza, il rango senza i quali sarebbe condannata ... “. Per ottenere questo “ è indispensabile che il regime che la guida rimanga costante e coerente”. La prima parte è appunto la storia di come egli realizza questo suo intento attraverso il referendum per l'elezione del Presidente della Repubblica mediante il voto popolare a suffragio universale. È cioè il momento critico in cui de Gaulle si scontra con quelli che lui chiama i fautori dei « trastulli sterili e derisori del passato », finché il 20 ottobre 1962 il 62 per Cento dei francesi si pronuncia per il "Sì", garantendo quindi alle istituzioni quella continuità di cui si giova attualmente Pompidou, proprio quel Pompidou di cui de Gaulle traccia in queste pagine un efficace ritratto. La seconda parte del volume vede de Gaulle alle prese con i difficili problemi degli anni 1963-1964: il rimpatrio dei profughi d'Algeria, lo sciopero dei minatori e dei pubblici dipendenti, la riorganizzazione dei cantieri navali, le riforme amministrativa e scolastica (con i primi brontolii del "maggio 1968") e i problemi finanziari e monetari. La statura dell'uomo e dello statista risalta ancora una volta in tutta la sua grandezza. Forse de Gaulle orgogliosamente non vedeva nessuna differenza fra sé e la Francia, ma nel suo orgoglio c'era anche la coscienza che far politica non significa scendere ai patteggiamenti, ai giuochi, ai compromessi.

Charles I - King of England, etc; Baron Finch of Fordwich.
HIS MAJESTIES DECLARATION: TO ALL HIS LOVING SUBJECTS, OF THE CAUSES WHICH MOVED HIM TO DISSOLVE THE LAST PARLIAMENT. Published by His Majesties speciall command.
pp. [2], 55. Signatures: A^(4)(-A1) B-G^(4) H2. There are two settings of this same edition known (no priority as to first issue, and many copies contain mixed formes). This setting has the title page with a small version of the royal arms; and on the verso a large, full page, engraved version; and the last line of D4v begins: as ever'. **Short contemporary Ms. note on title: 'This p'lament began Apr. 16, 1640 & was dissolved May 5 folowing.' Small 4to. 190 mm. Later blue boards binding; leather title strip lettered in gilt. Clean and attractive copy. Charles I (1600-1649), King of Great Britain and Ireland. In his early disputes, arguments, and battles with the Scots, tried a new tool. He resolved to call an English parliament, and to ask for means to enable him to make war effectually upon Scotland. The discovery of an attempt made by the Scottish leaders to open negotiations with the king of France led him to hope that the national English feeling would be touched. In the meanwhile the English privy councillors offered him a loan which would enable him at least to gather an army without parliamentary aid. The Short parliament of 1640 was opened by the King on 13 April with a few words indicative of the gravity of the situation, the task of more fully setting forth the royal wishes and intentions being devolved upon the Lord Keeper (Baron Finch). Under Pym's leadership the Parliament showed itself disposed to ask for redress of grievances as a condition of a grant of supply, and it subsequently refused to give money unless peace were made with the Scots. On 5 May Charles dissolved parliament by means of this Declaration. Getting money by irregular means, he proceeded to push on the war, and formed an Irish army to join the mutinous and un-warlike Royal army. Terrified and exasperated Englishmen, believed that this army would be used in England to crush their liberties. The Scots knew that the opinion in England was in their favour, and they had already entered into communication with the parliamentary leaders. On 20 Aug. they crossed the Tweed, defeated part of the royal army at Newburn on the 28th, and soon afterwards occupied Newcastle and Durham. Charles's money was by this time almost exhausted, and he was obliged to summon the English peers to meet him in a great council at York, as there was no time to get together a full parliament. The great council met on 24 Sept. It at once insisted on opening negotiations with the Scots, and sent some of its members to London to obtain a loan to support the army during the progress of the treaty. Charles had now agreed to summon another parliament, and the negotiations opened at Ripon were adjourned to London. Possibly written by John Finch, Baron Finch of Fordwich (1584-1660), Speaker of the House of Commons and Lord Keeper. STC (2nd ed.) 9262; Thomason, E.203[1]; Lincoln's Inn. Catalogue of Pamphlets, 1506-1700. The attractive First Edition of a scarce and important pamphlet. KING CHARLES I DISSOLVES THE "SHORT PARLIAMENT". **PRICE JUST REDUCED! STC 2

Champs de Bataille de l'Armée Française - Belgique - Allemagne - Italie - Napoléon, de Charles Malo
Paris, Hachette, 1901 - Reliure d'éditeur en demi-chagrin à coins cognac - Grand in-4 - Premier plat orné d'une composition allégorique surmontant le titre dans des tons havane et or, Second plat orné d'une rosace avec le monogramme de l'éditeur dans les mêmes coloris. Dos lisse orné d'un fleuron doré; pièce de titre de toile bleu fonce bordée de filets dorés, titre et tête dorés - Gardes ornées - 406 pages - 111 gravures et portraits et 25 cartes en noir dans le texte, 12 aquarelles en couleurs hors texte d'Alfred Paris - Cartes des champs de bataille - Bel exemplaire -Réf. 47561 De Marignan en 1515 aux batailles de Magenta et Solférino en 1859, 27 batailles sont ici décrites en détail, dont 19 concernent les guerres de la Révolution et du premier Empire (Arcole, Rivoli, Marengo, Austerlitz, Iéna, Auerstaedt, Eylau, Friedland, Essling, Wagram, Lützen, Dresde, Leipzig, Waterloo...) — "Le succès obtenu, l'année dernière, par les “Champs de bataille de France” de M. Charles Malo a déterminé la maison Hachette à confier à l'auteur une tâche identique pour les “Champs de bataille de l'Armée française à l'Étranger”. On connaît le plan précédemment suivi : après une description de visu du champ de bataille lui-même, vient une relation choisie de la bataille dont il a été le théâtre ; le tout est accompagné de plans et d'illustrations. Ce plan n'a pas changé. Les pays étrangers explorés par M. Malo sont la Belgique, l'Allemagne, l'Italie ; les batailles racontées sont au nombre de vingt-sept, toutes prises dans la période de notre histoire militaire qui s'étend du XVIIe siècle au Second Empire. L'ouvrage forme un très beau volume de 406 pages, d'impression soignée, avec certaines dispositions typographiques très heureuses. Il est orné, outre les plans, de nombreux portraits d'après des documents authentiques et de douze aquarelles hors texte de M. Alfred Paris." (Revue d’Histoire moderne et contemporaine)

Charles Richet
Le guerre e la pace. Studi sull'arbitrato internazionale
In questo volume l'autore, attraverso un'analisi delle motivazioni che conducono alla guerra, si fa portavoce del superamento dei contrasti attraverso l'uso dell'arbitrato internazionale, indicando una possibile soluzione che risiede nei processi federativi e nella controversa legittimazione dell'assegnazione di un ruolo determinante delle Nazioni Unite. Autori: Charles Richet. Curatori: V. Dini.

Monument militaire élevé à la gloire de la France par souscriptions. Bauvais, responsable de l'édition, demanda des mémoires à de nombreux militaires pour retracer l'histoire exacte, par des témoins, de l'histoire des batailles depuis l'an I de la République (1792) jusqu'en 1815. Une large introduction compare les français aux romains et dresse le tableau de son histoire militaire et de ses généraux, chaque livre détaillera ensuite pour chaque année l'histoire militaire et politique de la France et de l'Europe. Bien que cette préface donne le but de l'ouvrage, jamais on n'avait réuni autant de matériaux sérieux pour tracer l'histoire exacte de l'épopée militaire française sous la Révolution et l'Empire, vus comme une continuité. Les tomes 1 à 24 retracent l'histoire des différents faits militaires français ; les tomes 25 & 26 contiennent une table d'errata et une biographie militaire française dites "Tables du temple de la Gloire"l. L'ouvrage "Couronne Poétique" contient les chants & poésies consacrés à la Patrie & au courage, Enfin, le dernier ouvrage est une une galerie de portraits des maréchaux et généraux. Ces 2 derniers ouvrages sont très souvent absents.
