‎Memoirs of a Soldier Artist‎

‎London: Stanley Paul & Co. Ltd 1933. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. London Stanley Paul & Co. Ltd. 1933. Octavo 256 pages plus 28 pages of plates totalling 40 illustrations from photographs. Gilt-lettered black cloth a little rubbed sunned and marked; front cover slightly bowed; extremities a little bumped; edges a little foxed and marked; flyleaves lightly discoloured; a very good copy. The autobiography of British soldier artist and sculptor Adrian Jones 1845-1938. Pages 111-114 and the plate facing page 96 refer to his Boer War Memorial sculpture at the entrance to Government House at the corner of North Terrace and King William Street Adelaide. Jones tells the story from the initial request by 'an influential Committee representing the City of Adelaide' chaired by Sir Kiffin Thomas to the unveiling in 1904 and Sir William Sowden's letter of appreciation some 21 years later. The Memorial 'was designed along the vigorous lines that appeal so strongly to the Australian people. Indeed many Australians told me that they thought it the best statue in the country but this may have been said to please me' page 112. His 'magnum opus however was his "Peace Quadriga" 1912 for Constitution Arch Hyde Park Corner his hopes for a major unveiling ceremony and perhaps even a knighthood dashed by the death of his great advocate King Edward VII in 1910'.

‎[WOMEN'S HISTORY & LITERATURE] [WORLD WAR II]‎

‎To The Anti-Fascist Women of The DobriÄko Region‎

‎Prokuplje: Prekomurac Printing House October 1945. 40cm x 30cm. Single sheet of newsprint style paper printed recto only with a printer's error to the bottom right corner where the paper has been folded over as it entered the press so a fragment of the text is printed in error to the verso. Some trifling toning to the edges otherwise a very good example indeed and an almost miraculous survival.<br /> <br /> Simultaneously a call to action a plea for political support and a memorial to the great deeds of the women of the DobriÄ Province during WW2 distributed by the People's Front Party and the Anti-Fascist Women's Front of what would become the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia;<br /> <br /> "Mothers Wives Sisters and the Many Great Sons and Daughters of the Good Men who are Missed!" would be an approximate translation of the sub-heading. <br /> <br /> The main body of text printed in cyrillic goes on to list the wartime exploits of these women and less specifically their men; "We will never forget the sacrifice of the women from Dobrich who went day and night summer and winter throught the mountains and valleys of our region and brought our famous partisans clothes food ammuniotion and information. The ferocious occupier and his informants our home-grown traitors knew of these deeds and that is why they persecuted you women in particular. But neither prisons nor beatings nor camps nor shootings nor the burning of your houses truly swayed you from the right path for the good of The People." <br /> <br /> The text goes on to detail the immmediate post war collective efforts of these women; caring for the wounded adopting orphaned children and helping with the provincial administration both for the living and the dead. These actions it is maintained strengthened the People's Front to the point where it has become the only clear choice for the future of the region; the women of "Fighting DobriÄ" therefore must ensure their vote in the upcoming elections is cast for the People's Front so as to "elect worthy sons of the people as our representatives in the Constituent Assembly."<br /> The dense and rather understandably enthused broadsheet concludes with the patriotic cheer:<br /> <br /> "Long Live The People's Front!<br /> Long Live the First Free Elections in Our Country!<br /> Long Live Women's Rights and Freedoms!<br /> Long Live the Frontline Soldiers of the DobriÄki Section!<br /> Long Live Our Candidates!<br /> Long Live The Anti-Fascist Women's Front of Yugoslavia!"<br /> <br /> A courageous and uncompromising piece of antifascist ephemera from a region that was subject to a brutal Wehrmacht campaign assisted by local Chetnik collaborators and the UstaÅ¡e forces that was rightfully regarded as genocidal ethnic cleansing in post-war analyses. The Yugoslav Partisans however refused to capitulate and supported by an increasingly decimated local population fought relentlessly until the collapse of the Reich before victoriously proclaiming the foundation of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. No examples of this piece appear in OCLC and no trace can be found of its distribution in the public record. Prekomurac Printing House unknown‎

‎[NUCLEAR WAR] KAHN, Herman‎

‎On Thermonuclear War‎

‎Princeton New Jersey: Princeton University Press 1960. First Edition. Octavo. 24cm. Publisher's terracotta cloth titled and ruled in black and gilt to spine. Dustjacket. xx; 651pp. Very light wear and bumping to spine ends and extremities strong and bright; internally clean and fresh; in a grey dustjacket with some minor edgewear and shallow chipping to the spine ends and edges a hint of toning to the spine panel and some light soiling and wear to the white rear panel. A very good handsome copy indeed.<br /> <br /> Kahn's deeply influential analysis of the spectre of thermonuclear war partly intended as a counterpoint to von Neumann's apocalyptic concept of MAD or Mutually Assured Destruction. Kahn posits the strategic possibility of a 'winnable' nuclear conflict questions the solidity of a peace structure based on thermonuclear threat and makes the highly controversial for the time suggestion that the spectre of thermonuclear conflict itself isn't actually that terrifying and that the spectre of it is really what most people get worked up about. Kahn is an analytical strategist his conclusions are based in a zone in which emotion only plays the smallest part and upon publication the book elicited some powerful reactions from readers uncomfortable with the potential at the time inevitable deaths of millions being presented in the form of graphs and calm inexorable strategic detachment. Hubert Humphrey's contemporary review of the work stated "New thoughts particularly those which contradict current assumptions are always painful for the human mind to contemplate. On Thermonuclear War is filled with such thoughts."<br /> <br /> Perhaps as inevitable antidote to the grimly sardonic nature of his analysis Kahn's work earned him a place in the eternal halls of pop culture being the impromptu scriptwriter for the character of General Buck Turgidson in "Dr. Strangelove" and with popular understanding of his theories featuring prominently in fiction from Tom Clancy to "Wargames." Kahn is also credited with the coining of the phrases "Megadeath" as a unit of fatality and "Wargasm" describing the focus of the military personnel he worked with both of which have seeped into common usage. Kahn's borderline crude delivery combining horrifying statistics with jokes about how women will come to love their two-headed babies was deliberately jarring and intended to be equally disruptive to those locked in fearful uninformed paralysis and those working towards the wargasm. The reception of his book was one of the catalyzing elements that led Kahn to be a co-founder of The Hudson Institute after his work at RAND reached its inevitable close. Regardless of how divisive Kahn was both in theory and delivery "On Thermonuclear War" ranks as one of the most important 20th century works of strategic analysis right down to the title being an updated and expanded nod to von Clausewitz's "On War.

‎Purnell in association with the Imperial War Museum 1966-69. 128 parts in 8 vols. roy. 8vo. First Edition profusely illustrated in colour and monochrome throughout; all original parts less wrappers as intended housed in publisher's branded black rexine binders blocked in gilt a near fine set. COMPLETE WITH THE SEPARATELY PRINTED FOLDING MAP AND CHARTS ISSUED AS LOOSE INSERTS WITH VOLUMES ONE AND SEVEN AND WHICH ARE ALMOST INVARIABLY MISSING. Purnell's mammoth endeavour is arguably the crowning achievement of the 'partwork' fashion of the late 60s. Produced in collaboration with the Imperial War Museum edited by Barrie Pitt and written by a host of eminent historians scholars and veterans the series is equally fortunate in having Liddell-Hart as editor-in-chief. Produced in 'magazine' format the work as a whole makes full use of its size and space to create a lucid vivid and valuable account of the conflict. The number choice and quality of the photographs illustrations and diagrams are worthy of special mention. The work was intended originally in six volumes ending with the Japanese surrender but as the series neared its conclusion it was decided to extend it to eight volumes to include the consequences of the conflict such as the birth of the nuclear era the foundation of the UN and so on. Technically the set is complete in the original six volumes complete with detailed index issued at that point; an additional cumulative index was issued for those subscribers who wished to continue collecting the extended set as here. The series as a whole was reissued with considerable revision in 1970-72. Please note that additional postage will be required for shipping outside the UK.
