McMILLAN,R.
Bloeiende Betuwe door Richard McMillan.
Amsterdam Brussel Elsevier 1945. 50 p. 2 plates. Wrappers. 20 cm Binding shabby head of spine damaged. Paper yellowing Richard McMillan was an influential English World War II correspondent for United Press. He reported from the battlefields of North Africa and Normandy. This is a Dutch translation of his report on Operation Market Garden 17-25 September 1944 an unsuccessful Allied military operation fought in the Netherlands against the German army. The aim was to conquer the bridges across the Rhine at Arnhem and Nijmegen to establish the northern end of a pincer ready to project deeper into Germany. From his obituary at the holdthefrontpagecouk: 'Richard McMillan began at the Scarborough Evening Post at 15 and moved to Fleet Street six months later and held parliamentary and royal correspondent posts at The Times and the Daily Mail. He was assistant editor at Tit Bits and later became editor-in-chief at the Central Office of Information. He worked in Paris for the London Evening Standard and spent time editing newspapers on board liners between England and America during prohibition before recording the events of the Second World War from the heart of the action. Mr McMillan joined the High Commission in Ghana and was part of the team which kept it as a member of the Commonwealth also establishing Africas Institute of Journalism. He reported on events including the Nuremberg Trials was one of only four accredited journalists at the funeral of George V and the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor during his long career. He received an OBE for services to journalism for his war correspondent work but famously returned the medal in 1990 as a defiant gesture against the Poll Tax even appearing in court at the age of 90 for non-payment. Richard McMillan was born in Scotland in 1901 and died at his home in Frilsham West Berkshire a few months short of his 100th birthday'. unknown

An Experience of Finland
London: Hurst & Company 1993. Book. Good. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 164 pages. Index. "A very personal book in which the author explains how his interests in Finland have developed in parallel with the transformation of the country from a pre-war agrarian economy to a modern welfare state with an advanced technological basee. An interpretation of the landscape is accompanied by a description of the features - often peculiar to Finland - that stir the five senses. Illustrates more familiar topics with a mass of 'unconsidered trifles' - a diary here a manuscript there; an idea here a critical observation there - to produce an unusual and often intimate picture of the country and its people." - from dust jacket.
