The Capture of Makin: 20 November-24 November 1943; Foreword by Dwight D. Eisenhower Chief of Staff
Washington D.C.: Historical Division War Department Washington D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office 1946. First. Paperback. Fine- with minor edge-wear; binding a wee bit rolled. Folding map at rear appears to have never been opened. viii 136 pages 3 unnumbered folded leaves of plates: illustrations maps; 23 cm. Foreword by Dwight D. Eisenhower Chief of Staff. American Forces in Action series. series. Together with ' "The Admiralties" and "Guam" comprises a three-volume account of the Army operations against a determined enemy up through the Central Pacific.' <br /> ¶ Makin is an atoll in the Pacific Ocean part of the Gilbert Islands which are a part of the Republic of Kiribati. The atoll consists of 16 islands that surround a central lagoon. Makin is perhaps best known for the Makin Raid that occurred during World War II. In August 1942 U.S. Marines landed on the atoll in an attempt to disrupt Japanese fortifications gather intelligence and divert Japanese attention from larger landings on Guadalcanal and Tulagi. The raid was considered a success though it came with a high cost in American lives. Today Makin is home to a small population and the islands' economy is primarily based on subsistence agriculture and fishing. The atoll's history and its location in the beautiful Pacific Ocean make it a point of interest for history enthusiasts and those interested in the Pacific islands." ¶ World War 1939-1945 -- Amphibious operations.

Col Charles Booth Brackenbury, RA [C B Brackenbury] (1831-1890), military historian and British Army officer in Crimea, and war
Col. Charles Booth Brackenbury R.A. military historian and Times correspondent. Autograph Letter Signed to his editor J. T. Delane on writing and reviewing after the Franco-Prussian war with claim to have ‘started the Intelligence Department’.
10 April 1874; from Hill Street Woolwich on letterhead of Hill House Woolwich S.E. An excellent letter casting light on the relationship between the editor of The Times and a senior correspondent. See the two men’s entries in the Oxford DNB. Brackenbury’s states that ‘During the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 Brackenbury was the Times correspondent with the Austrian army and was at the battle of Königgrätz Sadowa — riding with Benedek under fire at Chlum — and reported the naval battle of Lissa. He was the Times correspondent in the Franco-Prussian War accompanying Prince Frederick Charles in the Le Mans campaign; and in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877 when he crossed the Balkans with Count Gourko.’ 4pp 12mo. Bifolium. In very good condition folded twice. Thin strip from windowpane mount adhering to edges in not unpleasing way. Signed ‘C. B. Brackenbury’ and addressed to ‘My dear Delane’. The letter begins: ‘Captain Clarke brought me today the last number of his translation of the German War of 1870-71. He is sending you a copy and I hope you will find some one to review it in my place.’ Brackenbury has himself translated ‘the Report of the Committee on French Army re organization together with the law as proposed and passed’ which the War Office is publishing. ‘You shall have the first copy issued which I will mark myself.’ In his opinion a great deal of the report ‘bears upon much more than French re-organization’. He will be very glad if Delane finds it ‘worth a notice’. He continues: ‘Though I may not write more on military affairs I don’t see why I should not review other books if you can find any for me. Even if you have no space for them at present the reviews might stand over till the interest of the new parliament is over.’ It seems to him ‘unnatural to have no work in hand for you’. The postscript reads: ‘They say that my review of Clarke’s first number started the Intelligence Department.’ 10 April 1874; from Hill Street [Woolwich], on letterhead of Hill House, Woolwich, S.E. unknown
