Very Good in Very Good DJ: Both book and DJ show indications of moderate use: Book shows light wear to extremities; slight spine lean; faint indications of exposure to moisture have crinkled the last five pages a bit while the cover appears unaffected; there is a small ver faint coffee stain at the bottom of the fore-edge; binding secure; text clean.

NOT a Remainder Book-Club or Ex-Library. 4to. 248pp. Hardback with DJ. The author and his friends took an extended canoe trip over 2 summers in the Norther Barrenlands of Canada mostly on the Thelon River and overwintered in an extremely remote area in a small cabin. Their sojourn there was interrupted by the crash of a Russian satellite nearby. The author writes well of the physical and emotional hurdles involved in such an experience and describes brilliantly the contrasts between life in the bush and the intrusive aspects of modern civilization as represented by the satellite and the search for it. I have read dozens of books of this nature and this stays in my mind as one of the best. While Christopher's book titled "Return to Warden's Grove" is clearly a good read it takes on greater significance if you first read "In the North of Our Lives". You really can not put "Return" into proper context until you read "North of our Lives". For anyone who has interest in the north woods Canada or the challenges of mounting an expedition of this magnitude this book is priceless. This will be a book you will re-read several times. Its that good. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY AUTHOR. Down East Books, hardcover‎

‎Churchill Winston Spencer‎

‎The River War: An Historical Account of the Reconquest of the Soudan‎

‎Longmans Green and Co London 1902. Second Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Dust Jacket. 2nd Edition: 1st one-volume edition of Churchill's second book. With frontispiece portrait of Kitchener of Khartoum and 22 maps and plans of which 14 are color and 11 folding. xiv 381 pages. Shelf wear split to hinge spine slightly sunned bumping and mark to front cover age toning and some spotting but overall in very good original condition. The River War was originally published as a two-volume edition in 1899. In 1902 Churchill by then a new member of Parliament revised and abridged his text excising much of the criticism of Kitchener for political reasons. There is also a new Preface. For the next 120 years every one of the many subsequent editions of The River War was based on this 1902 text. This first one-volume edition had only a single printing of just 1003 copies and so is considerably scarcer than the first edition. This edition has the same distinctive gilt decoration of the Mahdi's Tomb and gunboat as the first edition but is bound in red cloth. Two interesting features distinguish this copy. First is the presence of original white endpapers instead of the typical black. Second is lack of the publisher's catalogue; Cohen Vol. I A2.2 p.46 notes "Most copies will have a catalogue designated '10000/7/02'." Cohen also notes that "Sales were gradual" and "by 1 June 1908. 407 copies remained on hand" of which 350 were as-yet unbound sheets. Moreover among the copies we have examined the publisher's red cloth varies quite considerably in hue from a deep red to distinctly lighter shades. In our experience darker cloth has always corresponded to black endpapers and a bound-in publisher's catalogue. This copy - the publisher's original binding featuring medium red cloth white endpapers and no publisher's catalogue - seems almost certainly among the later copies bound and sold by the publisher. In 1883 Mahdist forces of messianic leader Mohammed Ahmed overwhelmed the Egyptian army of British commander William Hicks and Britain ordered withdrawal from the Sudan. In 1885 General Gordon famously lost his life in a doomed defense of Khartoum where he had been sent to lead evacuation of Egyptian forces. Though the Mahdi died that same year his theocracy continued until 1898 when General Kitchener reoccupied the Sudan. With Kitchener was a young Winston Churchill who participated in decisive defeat of the Mahdist forces and the last "genuine" cavalry charge of the British army during the battle of Omdurman in September 1898. Writing about the British campaign in the Sudan Churchill - a young officer in a colonial British army - is unusually sympathetic to the Mahdist forces and critical of Imperial cynicism and cruelty. This work offers us the candid perspective of the future 20th century icon from the distinctly 19th century battlefields where Churchill learned to write and earned his early fame. The text is arresting insightful powerfully descriptive and of enduring relevance. Because it was significantly revised and because so many subsequent editions were based on this text this 1902 first abridged and revised edition is as important and desirable as any in the Churchill canon. The text has been revised and a new chapter on the Destruction of Khalifa and the denouement of the war have been added.
