The Philadelphia War History Committee
Philadelphia in the World War 1914-1919
New York: Wynkoop Hallenbeck Crawford Co. published for The Philadelphia War History Committee 1922. Presumed First Edition First printing. Hardcover. 28 cm 785 pages. Illustrations. Philadelphia's War Chronology. Contents include sections on: Student Military Training Camps Military training Belgian Relief Draft Boards 414th Telegraph Battalion 19th Engineers 16th Infantry Women in the Service tank Corps Pioneer Infantry Regiments Military Intelligence Colored Units and Baldwin's Siberian Contingent. Also included are sections on Casualties Shipping Board Merchant Marine Wartime Industries Councils of National Defense Philadelphia Ordnance District and the War Industries Board among others. There is also information on the Return of Troops Vocational Training Demobilized Troops and a Civic League for Immigrants. Boards worn and soiled somewhat shaken. The Philadelphia War History Committee was appointed by the Mayor of Philadelphia to gather facts about the city in World War I. This material was gathered preparatory to the publication of Philadelphia in the World War 1914-1918 New York 1922. On 22 September 1919 Mayor Thomas B. Smith appointed the Philadelphia War History Committee to compile a history of Philadelphia's involvement in the recent World War I. Mayor Smith had appointed two committees in 1916-1917 to help Philadelphia's soldiers. The first appointed on 18 June 1916 was the Citizens' Soldiers Aid Committee which raised money to assist the families of the Philadelphia regiments of the National Guard called into active service along the Mexican frontier. This committee terminated its functions at the end of 1916. On 20 March 1917 Mayor Smith appointed the Philadelphia Home Defense Committee which initially aided a naval recruiting campaign in the Philadelphia area but generally coordinated all efforts to assist the war preparations and the families of those in the armed forces. The Philadelphia Home Defense Committee soon passed into history supplanted by the state Pennsylvania Committee of Public Safety but at least two of the sub-committees continued to work throughout the remainder of the war. The first the Philadelphia Home Defense Reserve created a military reserve of 2500 men which helped keep peace in the city throughout the war. The second the Personal Service Bureau aided the soldier and his family to adjust themselves to war conditions help maintain communications between them and offer a general helping hand to service men from other cities located temporarily in Philadelphia. After the termination of hostilities the chairman of the Philadelphia Branch of the Council of National Defense suggested the appointment of the Philadelphia War History Committee while the materials for a book were still freshly available. This book entitled Philadelphia in the World War 1914-1919 was published in 1922. Detailed histories of the two Mayor's war committees are included although the records of these organizations appear to have passed into history.

The information given in this document is not to be communicated either directly or indirectly to the Press or to any person not holding an official position in His Majesty's Service. " This document was compiled from preliminary reports on the then-recent desert warfare fighting in the Middle East. Topics covered include Imperial Forces attack tactics armored divisions--tactical notes mobile columns of all arms air support information training of headquarters splitting of headquarters intercommunication deception and engineers and German and Italian forces German charactistics tactics armored forces deception and defense works. Cyrenaica or Kyrenaika is the eastern region of Libya. Cyrenaica includes all of the eastern part of Libya between the 16th and 25th meridians east including the Kufra District. The coastal region also known as Pentapolis "Five Cities" in antiquity was part of the Roman province of Crete and Cyrenaica later divided into Libya Pentapolis and Libya Sicca. During the Islamic period the area came to be known as Barqa after the city of Barca. Cyrenaica became an Italian colony in 1911. After the 1934 formation of Italian Libya the Cyrenaica province was designated as one of the three primary provinces of the country. During World War II it fell under British military and civil administration from 1943 until 1951 and finally in the Kingdom of Libya from 1951 until 1963. The region that used to be Cyrenaica officially until 1963 has formed several shabiyat the administrative divisions of Libya since 1995. The 2011 Libyan Civil War started in Cyrenaica which came largely under the control of the National Transitional Council headquartered in Benghazi for most of the war. In 2012 a body known as the Cyrenaica Transitional Council unilaterally declared Cyrenaica to be an autonomous region of Libya. U.K. War Office unknown

Excerpts from an on-line encyclopedia posting: "military bridge temporary bridge that must usually be constructed in haste by military engineers from available materials frequently under fire. The earliest types historically were pontoon bridges i.e. floating bridges that rest on stationary boats. By the 17th century bridging equipment was part of the train of European and Turkish armies with pontoons fashioned not only of timber but also of leather copper and tin. Pneumatic pontoons with steel roadways made their appearance during World War II. Military trestles were built in considerable numbers in the wars of the 19th century. Military pontoon bridges are usually built either by successively extending outward from the shore or by constructing whole sections as rafts and floating them into position. Truss bridges for use where riverbanks are steep or navigation must be kept open are made up in panels readily bolted together. Military truss bridges were pioneered in World War II by the highly successful British-invented Bailey bridge which played an especially important role in the Allied campaign in Italy."

Assad and the peace process: the pivotal role of Lebanon
Carlisle Barracks PA: U.S. Army War College Strategic Studies Institute 1995. Presumed first edition/first printing. Wraps. Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling. v 1 46 p. 23 cm. Maps. Endnotes. From an on-line posting: "This study shows how the Syrian was able to improve his originally weak position in the peace talks by exploiting crisis conditions in Lebanon. Assad's major weapon against the Israelis has been the guerrilla group Hizbollah. The author claims that the fact that a small group of guerrillas could have such an enormous impact in this international drama reveals changed power relations in the strategic Middle East. Dr. Stephen C. Pelletiere served as the Strategic Studies Institute s Middle East expert. Prior to this appointment he was an intelligence officer in Washington monitoring the Iran-Iraq war. Dr. Pelletiere s research deals with America s Dual Containment policy. He holds a B.A. in English from the University of Vermont and a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of California-Berkeley." U.S. Army War College, Strategic Studies Institute paperback
