WARNER, MARINA.
The Dragon Empress. Life and Times of Tz'u-Hsi 1835-1908. Empress Dowager of China.
London.: Sphere Books. Cardinal Edition. 1974. Maps colour and black and white illustrations xi 271pp notes index sources of illustrations. 24.5 x 18cm. Covers a little creased vertical crease on spine a good paperback copy. From the library of Aubrey and Eva Sweet with a label indicating the collection number on the spine. This biography of Empress Dowager Tz'u-hsi discusses her time ruling over the Celestial Empire from 1861 to 1908. As it analyses the decline of the empire and examines the concepts and rituals of its people it lays bare the complex personality of Tz'u-hsi. From the early part of her life at court to the Taiping and Boxer rebellions her ruling was marked by turbulence and war and coloured with a growing distaste for the foreigners' presence in China. The last few years of her life were spent in a desperate attempt to befriend foreign powers and reform China but the empire was being swept by a revolutionary tide and when she died in 1908 the Ch'ing dynasty survived her a mere three years. <br> .

US. Department of the Navy, Office of Naval Records and Library Navy Department (Under the Supervision of Captain Dudley W. Know
Naval Operations Including Diplomatic Background from 1785 Through 1801; Naval Documents Related to the United States Wars with the Barbary Powers Volume I.
Washington D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office 1939. Presumed First Edition First printing. Hardcover. Very good. xi 3 718 2 pages. Includes Foreword Preface Illustrations including three fold-outs Naval Operations From 1785 to 1801 War with the Barbary Powers. Also includes index from page 651 to page 718 as well as 14 black and white illustrations between the frontispiece and page 524. Includes index between pages 531 and 587. Published under Direction of The Honorable Claude A. Swanson Secretary of the Navy. This is volume I of a six volume set. This volume is the first of a projected series of documents relating to naval operations during the several wars between the United States and the former Barbary Powers of northern Africa near the beginning of the nineteenth century. This first volume covers the naval operations through 1801 with the exception of those documents already published in the series pertaining to the Quasi-War with France. The more important naval events dealt with herein are the voyage of the U. S. S. George Washington the declaration of war by Tripoli against the United States and the sending of a squadron to the Mediterranean under the command of Commodore Richard Dale. Commodore Dudley Wright Knox 21 June 1877 – 11 June 1960 was an officer in the United States Navy during the Spanish–American War and World War I. He was also a prominent naval historian who for many years oversaw the Navy Department's historical office now named the Naval History and Heritage Command. During the Spanish–American War he served aboard the screw steamer Maple a tender in Cuban waters. He commanded the gunboats Albay and Iris during the Philippine–American War of 1899-1902 and the latter during the Chinese Boxer Rebellion of 1899-1901. He then commanded three of the Navy's first destroyers: Shubrick Wilkes and Decatur before commanding the First Torpedo Flotilla. During the 1907-1909 cruise of the "Great White Fleet" sent around the world by President Theodore Roosevelt he served as ordnance officer of the battleship Nebraska BB-14. He attended the Naval War College's two-year course in 1912–13 and after graduation became the aide to Captain William Sims commanding the Atlantic Torpedo Flotilla. In 1915 Knox became a leading figure in developing naval operational doctrine by publishing an influential article in the U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings. He served as Fleet Ordnance Officer in both Atlantic and Pacific served in the Office of Naval Intelligence and commanded the Guantanamo Bay Naval Station. In November 1917 he joined the staff of Admiral William Sims Commander of U.S. Naval Forces in European Waters and earned the Navy Cross for "distinguished service" serving as Aide in the Planning Section and later in the Historical Section. He was promoted to Captain on 1 February 1918. After returning to the United States in March 1919 he served for a year on the faculty of the Naval War College when he became a key figure on the Knox-King-Pye Board that examined professional military education. In 1920 Knox first began his work as a naval publicist serving as naval editor of the Army and Navy Journal until 1923. He became the naval correspondent of the Baltimore Sun from 1924 to 1946 and naval correspondent of the New York Herald Tribune in 1929. Transferred to the Retired List of the Navy on 20 October 1921 he continued on active duty simultaneously serving as Officer in Charge Office of Naval Records and Library and as Curator for the Navy Department. Knox played a key role in setting up the Naval Historical Foundation. Early in World War II he was assigned additional duty as Deputy Director of Naval History. For a quarter of a century his leadership inspired diligence efficiency and initiative while he guided improved and expanded the Navy's archival and historical operations. His personal connections to President Roosevelt Fleet Admiral Ernest J. King and other senior leaders in the Navy Department allowed him to play an instrumental role behind the scenes in the years leading up to and during World War II. Advanced to Commodore on 2 November 1945 he was awarded the Legion of Merit for "exceptionally meritorious conduct" while directing the correlation and preservation of accurate records of the U.S. naval operations in World War II thus protecting this vital information for posterity.

Art: The Critics Choice 150 Masterpieces of Western Art Selected and Defined by the Experts
Lakewood New Jersey U.S.A.: Watson-Guptill Pubns. New. 1999. Hardcover. 0823002608 . FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY BRAND NEW PRISTINE NEVER OPENED - "In Vaizey's Art: The Critics' Choice art historians have selected their favorite works of Western art or those they deem the most influential from Antiquity through the present. Concise overviews of each period provide a good introduction for the novice and a handy brush-up for those familiar with the material. As with any personal "best of" listing there's bound to be arguments over the merits of what was selected and what omitted. In general however most of the icons of Western art are presentAit's only when the authors move into the later 20th century that the choices become debatable. In contrast Cole's The Informed Eye is the focused aesthetic opinion of a single art historian. Covering roughly the same time period Cole provides rough thumbnail sketches of artists' lives and the creation of their work which he then places in the larger context of Western art history. Cole builds persuasive arguments for each "masterpiece" he selects; as in Vaizey's work there are no major surprises. Both volumes are appropriate for newcomers to art history seeking a quick introduction as well as for more seasoned viewers in search of an aesthetic debate and they complement each other stylistically: Cole's train of thought is more coherent while Vaizey's book presents more color illustrations in a larger format. Recommended particularly for public libraries with an interest in art and architecture." AMartin R. Kalfatovic Smithsonian Inst. -- with a bonus offer-- . Watson-Guptill Pubns hardcover
