HARRISON, J. V.
The Bakhtiari Country, South-Western Persia.
18 pages. Plus photographic plates and a fold-out colour map measuring approximately 12.5 x 14.5 inches (32 x 37cm) . Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Undertaken at the behest of the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, this expedition's objective was to study the geology of Bakhtiari country, an area believed to possess oil located in south-western Persia, between the Diz or Sehzar River on the north-west and the Karun River on the south-east - home to the semi-nomadic Bakhtiari tribes. Of particular geological interest are Harrison's depictions of the region's narrow valleys or tangs, his discussion of imbrics and tectonics and the expedition's arduous trekking itself: via Zeloi; the whale-backed mountain range, Kuh-i-Pabda; Chulbar on the north-eastern base of Kuh-i-Pabda; the Gapi basin; following a branch of the river Ab-i-Balut; Silili; Baznui; the country around Qal'eh Kuh and Ushtarinan Kuh; Qal'eh Pachah; Niyakan and Kuh-i-Dalan and numerous other locations. Accompanied by interesting photographs of the area's mountains and a large folding map of the territory covered.

HAY, Sir Robert
The Persian Gulf States and their Boundaries - 12
Author: Sir Rupert Hay Publisher: London: Edward Stanford, Royal Geographical Society, 1954. Item is in Original Condition, with Blue Wrappers - As Issued, Complete with All the Ads! Notes & Condition: As former Political Resident in the Persian Gulf until 1953, Hay's purpose with this report was "to give a brief geographical description of the ten Shaikdoms and Muscat, bringing to light "the problems to which their boundaries give rise." Having had worked numerous years as a British political officer charged with establishing and maintaining British rule, Hay was very knowledgeable of the region and inhabitants, as well as its political history, especially in relation to Great Britain. He begins by describing Kuwait, "before the advent of oil... existing on pearling, fishing, shipbuilding...but now one of the richest..." A thorough description of Kuwait concludes with remarks of the section disputed by leaders of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the Trucial Coast Shaikdom of Abu Dhabi. Trucial Oman and its "extraordinarily complicated borders" is the next subject of Hay's attention, Abu Dhabi being "the most westerly and by far the largest of the Shaikhdoms." He provides fascinating visual imagery of this region, "... Dibai...flourishes on its entrepôt trade and its suqs or markets on either side of its broad creek are the most picturesque... in the Middle East... takes one back to the time of the Arabian Nights... narrow lanes roofed with matting... Arabs, Persians and Baluchis display their multi-coloured wares. Wild-eyed tribesmen with their camel-canes and daggers haggle with the shopkeepers... wealthier Persian merchants with their long flowing robes and gold-brocaded headdresses pass to and fro... Graceful dhows glide into the creek... ...there is an air of bustle and prosperity... a peculiar charm." Boundaries, territorial disputes, claims of the Sultan of Muscat and Oman, the positive and problematic impact of the proliferate oil companies, are all examined before reiterating, in conclusion, the imperative need for clear delineation of boundaries in the highly coveted oil-rich Persian Gulf. 8vo. 13 pages including a full page sketch map. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. [From 1763 until 1971, the British Empire maintained varying degrees of political control over some of the Persian Gulf states, including the United Arab Emirates (originally called the Trucial States) and at various times Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar through the British Residency of the Persian Gulf.] Sir William Rupert Hay KCMG KCIE CSI (1893-1962) was a British Indian Army officer and administrator in British India. He served as Chief Commissioner of Balochistan during the colonial era. During World War I he was in Mesopotamia with the Dorsetshire Regiment, transferring to the Indian Army, attached to the 24th Punjabis, being appointed Quarter-Master 30th October 1916, and promoted to Lieutenant in 1918. Hay was seconded to the Foreign and Political Department in May 1920 and was confirmed in his appointment in May 1924. He was Political Agent in South Waziristan from 1924 to 1928, Assistant Commissioner in Mardan 1928 to 1931, and Political Agent in Malakand 1931 to 1933. He was Resident in Waziristan 1940 to 1941, Resident in the Persian Gulf 1941 to 1942, Revenue and Judicial Commissioner in Balochistan 1942 to 1943, and Agent to the Governor-General, Resident and Chief Commissioner in Balochistan 1943 to 1946. He was again Political Resident in the Persian Gulf from 1946 to 1953, then retiring from the service and returning to England. [St. Anthony's College, Oxford holds a collection of Hay's papers and diaries.] The Trucial States of the Coast of Oman, also known as Trucial Oman and Trucial Sheikhdoms, were a group of sheikhdoms in the south-eastern Persian Gulf, previously known to the British as the 'Pirate Coast', which were signatories to treaties (hence 'trucial') with the British government. These treaties established an informal protectorate by Great Britain, and the sheikhdoms, or emirates, were a British protectorate from 1820 until 2 December 1971, when the seven principal trucial sheikhdoms became independent. Six (Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Qawain and Fujairah) were to form the United Arab Emirates on that day; the seventh "Ras Al Khaimah" joined the Federation on 10 February 1972. The last sheikhdom to be granted recognition was that of Fujairah, which became a trucial state in 1952 after the British government came under pressure from PCL (Petroleum Concessions Limited) to grant status in order that the company could have a free hand to explore for oil along the whole east coast. Also in 1952, the Trucial States Council was established to encourage co-operation between the seven Rulers.

Hay, W. R.
Demarcation of the Indo-Afghan Boundary in the Vicinity of Arandu.
4 pages, including two in-text sketch maps. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. In November 1893 an agreement was signed between the British and Afghan governments defining on paper the boundary of the spheres of influence of the two governments wherever they touched each other. The British representative during the negotiations was sir Mortimer Durand, and the boundary in question was since then referred to as the Durand Line. Demarcation was successfully carried out along a considerable portion of the frontier. Owing however to conditions prevailing in tribal territory certain parts of the boundary line could not be visited, and much of it remained undemarcated. This narrative describes how in 1894, one of the gaps, a small but important one, had been filled in.

Hay.W.R.
Pre-Ghal in Waziristan.
20 pages, including two in-text sketch maps. Plus many photographic plates. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a fascinating account on the political state of India's 'Mashud country', a region to the west of Dera Ismail Khan on the North-West Frontier of India, at a time when there was bitter hostility and serious fighting between the Wazirs and Mahsuds over their boundaries, particularily in the vincinity of Razmak. Captain Hay was in charge of the South Waziristan Agency for 3-4 years, and describes the intricacies of relationships between the feuding tribes, as well as their custom and history. Hay visited many places not previously seen by Europeans and on this journey he and several hundred natives, climbed the region's highest peak in the Preghal range. Includes remarks on Hindu legend surrounding the mountain, miracles and superstition reported by tribesmen, a list of plants identified, and Pashtu geographical vocabulary. South Waziristan is a mountainous region of northwest Pakistan, comprising the area west and southwest of Peshawar between the Tochi River to the north and the Gomal river to the south. The region was an independent tribal territory from 1893, remaining outside of British-ruled empire and Afghanistan. Tribal raiding into British-ruled territory was a constant problem for the British, requiring frequent punitive expeditions between 1860 and 1945. The region became part of Pakistan in 1947.

HOGARTH, Dr. D. G.
Gertrude Bell's Journey to Hayil.
21 pages. Plus photographic plates. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a fascinating expedition report on an extraordinary pioneer who supplied much needed confidential information to the British General Headquarters about Arabia and the Arabs during First World War. This is the first ever published narrative of her journey to Hayil, being as she was so physically worn out at the time of the World War, she died before she could publish this rare journey. This extraordinary narrative is written from her notes, and journals, and letters. Her intelligence and knowledge of the country and its people shines through every page and it is not difficult to understand just why she later became so influential in British circles in determining the future shape of the Middle East after World War I. In her adventurous life she travelled far, but it was in the Near East and Middle East, the adopted lands of {Sir Richard} Burton, {Charles M.} Doughty and {T.E.} Lawrence, that she chose to linger. Syria, Persia and Iraq laid firm hold on her affections and she came to understand them as few Westerners can. She was scholar, poet, historian, archaeologist, art critic, mountaineer, explorer, naturalist, distinguished servant of the State, and these many facets of a brilliant personality are mirrored in her works. Gertrude Bell, who with T.E. Lawrence and Sir Percy Cox created the kingdom of Iraq, was a remarkable woman. To wealth and position, she added wit, intelligence and good looks. Despite the conventions of the 1890s she excelled in mountain climbing, in modern history at Oxford, and in writing both prose and verse. A visit to the Middle East roused what became an unquenchable love of the East. She studied Persian and Arabic and set off to explore to visit desert tribes, learn their customs, made maps and delved into history and archaeology. Traveller, historian, linguist, archaeologist, geographer and prodigious writer. She became the most famous contemporary English figure in Arabia until history was swamped by the legend of T.E. Lawrence. Bell & Lawrence both became involved with Middle East affairs i.e. Military Intelligence during the war and politics afterwards.

Combinatorial Data Analysis: Optimization by Dynamic Programming Monographs on Discrete Mathematics and Applications Series Number 6
Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics 2001 4to 26 cm 175 pp. Publisher's laminated boards. "Combinatorial data analysis CDA refers to a wide class of methods for the study of relevant data sets in which the arrangement of a collection of objects is absolutely central. The focus of this monograph is on the identification of arrangements which are then further restricted to where the combinatorial search is carried out by a recursive optimization process based on the general principles of dynamic programming DP. The authors provide a comprehensive and self-contained review delineating a very general DP paradigm or schema that can serve two functions. First the paradigm can be applied in various special forms to encompass all previously proposed applications suggested in the classification literature. Second the paradigm can lead directly to many more novel uses. An appendix is included as a user's manual for a collection of programs available as freeware." publisher's description Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics hardcover

HUXLEY, Henry Minor
Five Manuscript Letters from the American Archaeological Expedition To Middle East in which he discusses Stone Inscription Discovery which were subsequently Concealed
Beirut, Damascus, Hama, Bhamdoun: 28 February 1900 - June 1901. Lot of 5 manuscript letters written and signed by Harvard anthropologist Henry Minor Huxley, concerning anthropological work performed for the Howard Crosby Butler Archaeological Expedition to the Middle East, as well as a noteworthy archaeological discovery of an ancient and curious stone inscription, its location guarded with secrecy by the few expedition members having this knowledge. 8vo. double-leafs varying in size. 24 pages combined, each letter signed in the original. Two letters are on hotel stationery. Occasional light creasing, otherwise in very good condition, clean and bright, a fascinating and candid primary source account. Writing to a trusted source, his mother, Huxley's reveals the discovery of an ancient inscription carved into an overturned stone, in a language possibly not yet identified, stating that he took the first photograph of it, and that only a select few expedition members are privy to knowing its location. His commentary on experiences with the local civilians and officials are straightforward and occasionally blunt. Henry Minor Huxley, A.M. accepted the offer to join the American Archaeological Expedition led by American archaeologist Howard Crosby Butler. The first part of the archaeological work took place from mid-October to mid-December 1899, and a second trip was made for continued work from March to June, 1900. In the summer of 1900, he was devoted to acquiring a working knowledge of the vernacular Arabic. Huxley's work, however, involved a broader scope. During this second trip, he was also tasked with the study of physical anthropology, as is apparent in the present correspondence. This work proved so valuable that Huxley, owing to the patronage of New York businessman and archeological enthusiast B.T. Babbitt Hyde, remained for another year to further these anthropological observations, independently. What does not appear to be officially documented in publications, but is highly fascinating, is what Huxley writes in his last letter of the present lot. That is, in June 1901, just prior to returning to America, he alone returned to the site of a stone inscription discovered during the earlier part of the expedition (presumably in 1899), to copy it, photograph it, and turn it back face down so that no others would see it. This would increase the likelihood that he and one other would have a better chance of being the first to decipher it.
