THE YOUNG RIFLEMAN'S COMRADE: A Narrative Of His Military Adventures, Captivity, And Shipwreck.
308 p. Light age stain. Deckle edges. 12mo. 210 mm. Original cloth spine over plain paper covered boards, worn. Original paper spine label. Loss at head of spine. Hardbound. Very Good. The Young Rifleman's Comrade may be a translation of the third volume of Maempel's 'Der junger Feldjager.' Edited by Goethe, an edition, says the translator, whose fame is even more extensively European than the adventures of the hero. The hero's adventures take him from Germany through France, Spain, Italy and England. The last part of the volume describes his shipwreck off the African coast near Mauritius, and his adventures before reaching safety. This English translation first appeared in London, 1826. It is attributed to John Kincaid (1787-1862). First American edition. SCARCE. S&S/AI 29614. PAIMP 23

PEKING REVIEW re-titled BEIJING REVIEW in 1979.1 altogether 621 issues.
<p><i><b>621 issues</b></i></p><p><i><b>Beijing Review</b></i> Chinese: åŒ—äº¬å‘¨å ±; pinyin: <i>BÄ›ijÄ«ng ZhÅubà o</i>; Wade–Giles: <i>Pei-ching Yu-pao</i> previously <i><b>Peking Review</b></i> is China's only national news magazine in English published by the Chinese Communist Party-owned China International Publishing Group. In 2006 it claimed a per-issue circulation of 70000 and distribution "throughout China and 150 countries and regions worldwide." Founded in March 1958 as the weekly <i>Peking Review</i> it was an important tool for the Chinese government to communicate to the rest of world. The first issue included an editor's note explaining that the magazine was meant to "provide timely accurate first-hand information on economic political and cultural developments in China and her relations with the rest of the world." The U.S. Postal Service initially restricted distribution of the magazine but the U.S. Supreme Court overturned this policy in <i>Lamont v. Postmaster General</i>. In October 2020 the United States Department of State designated <i>Beijing Review</i> as a "foreign mission" of China. An important time period covering the entire Cultural Revolution through the death of Chairman Mao the policies of Deng Xiaoping and the establishment of modern China.</p><p>Each issue in original printed wrappers: 1963: No. 10 11 13 15 25 30 32-36 38 41-45 52; 1964: No. 1-52; 1965: No. 1-19 21-22 24-52; 1966: No. 5-30; 1970: No. special issue 8 May 21 31; 1972: No. 1-33 35-52; 1973: No. 1-52; 1974: No. 1-35 37-49 51-52; 1975: No. 1-52; 1976: No. 1-52; 1977: No. 1-52; 1978: No. 1-52; 1979: No. 1-43; 1980 No. 10 12-15 21 33 38 40 47 48; 1981: No. 1 2 5 23 27 28 37 42 44 51; 1982: No. 31 33 35 37 38 48 50-52; 1984: No. 36 40 42 1985: No. 9 11 12; 1986: No. 1 3 13 14 30 36 43 46; 1987: No. 8 9 27 28 37 42 44-46; 1988: No. 10; 1989: No. 3 5 6 9 19 21-23 27-29 41; 1995: No. 4 8</p><p>The name change of this journal under President Deng presaged a new direction. From being a revolutionary magazine presenting the ideas and aspirations of a young and relatively weak Socialist state struggling along the road to the construction of Communism it was now displaying its open statement of aims of an outright capitalist and imperialist state – with global ambitions. From the very beginning the new Socialist state had to face many obstacles. There was opposition from within and without the country from within and without the Party. Those who might have played an important role in the past in the fight for liberation were not necessarily the ones who were needed to build a radically new society. All revolutions bring with it old baggage from the past but some leaders found it more difficult than others to throw it away and start fresh. </p><p>《北京周报》创刊于1958å¹´3月1，最åˆè‹±æ–‡å为"Peking Review"，在ä¸å›½å…¨é¢æ”¹ç”¨æ±‰è¯æ‹¼éŸ³ä½œä¸ºè¯‘åæ ‡å‡†åŽæ”¹ä¸ºçŽ°å。æ‚志主è¦æŠ¥é“ä¸å›½çš„政治ç»æµŽçŽ°çŠ¶ï¼Œä»‹ç»ä¸å›½æ”¿åºœå¯¹å†…对外的é‡å¤§æ–¹é’ˆæ”¿ç–ç‰2。《北京周报》也曾出版过法文ã€è¥¿ç牙文ã€æ—¥æ–‡åŠå¾·æ–‡ç‰ˆå®žä½“刊，ä¸è¿‡é™¤è‹±æ–‡ç‰ˆä»ä¿ç•™å®žä½“刊外，其他è¯è¨€ç‰ˆæœ¬å‡å·²äºŽ2000å¹´12月åœåˆŠï¼Œä»…ä¿ç•™ç½‘络版。</p><p><br /></p> Published by Guozi Shudian for the Foreign Language Press, paperback
