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.

INGRAMS, Doreen (Mrs. Harold Ingrams)
Excursion into the Hajr Province of Hadhramaut.
8vo. 14 pages including a full page sketch map from the travels of Hermann von Wissman, plus photographic plates for illustration. 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. Escorted by an officer of the Mukalla Irregular Army, Ingrams left Mukalla on 25 March 1939 to visit the Hajr Province, driving up the Wadi [valley] Kherba where the 'Akabira tribes reside, through the settlement of Lijmat replete with date groves, to Al Qerba, and into uncharted little inhabited valleys which revealed the presence of early civilizations. In the environs of a place she calls 'Qarif Ba Dhala' she comes across some stone inscriptions resembling those of ancient Egypt, ad sent some to Mukalla for examination. Also sighted was stating "... many heaps of stones set in circles with large upright ones in the midst of them..." possibly old Islamic gravesites. Finally arriving at the fields of Wadi Yuwan, which was dispersed with eight separate villages and grand date palms, the traveller and peace advocate was hospitably received, presenting an opportunity to describe and assess local custom. Further inscriptions were found at Wadi Mardaha, about three and half hours from Al Jinein, again likening Egyptian hieroglyphics. Ingrams notes differences in the valleys of Kanina and Hajr, from other regions of the Hadhramaut Valley, the dwellings for example being crafted of stone held together with a mud and straw plaster, and being five or six stories high with narrow windows, the Subian women being unveiled, and the men appearing rather fit by comparison. Cave dwelling are also seen, being an encampment of Ba Dubian Badawin, or Bedouin. She also learns of lingering contempt between the Al Zagheib and Ba Rasheid [Al Rasheed], and acts of retaliation. The custom of tattooing is less appreciated by the traveller, but none the less recorded as one of the earliest descriptions, following that of Freya Stark in 1936. Ingrams states... "The percentage of good looks is high in Yuwan, where the women have shapely, tapering faces, broad foreheads, wide full lips and straight noses, but they sometimes mar their appearance by tattooing, and the young married women consider it attractive to paint the upper half of their faces yellow and the lower half green." Harold Ingram was the first British Resident Adviser in the Hadhramaut in South Arabia. Mrs. [Doreen] Ingrams travelled on donkey and camel to far distant parts of the country, helping him to bring about the peace among the warring tribes which became known throughout Arabia as 'Ingram's Peace'.

INGRAMS, Harold and Doreen.
The Hadhramaut in Time of War.
With vivid descriptions and stunning photographic plates depicting ancient ruins, nomadic Bedouins, famine and relief work,the authors provide first-hand insight into social conditions in the Hadhramaut, including the Wahidi country, Hadhrami communities, Al 'Abr, Shiban and Al Ghuraf, where famine and tribal war prevailed and consumed lives at alraming rates, where relief was imperative and drought was yet another added burden. A fold out colour map illustrates villages and the author's routes in the environs of the "Incense Road".Harold Ingram was the first British Resident Adviser in the Hadhramaut in South Arabia. Doreen Ingrams travelled on donkey and camel to far distant parts of the country, helping him to bring about the peace among the warring tribes which became known throughout Arabia as 'Ingram's Peace'. A fantastic Arabia expedition report at a time when war and savage famine pervaded the hostile country - an exceptional Primary Resource!!! 37 pages; including illustrations. Plus a Large Fold-out Color 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.

INGRAMS, W. H.
Hadhramaut: A Journey to the Sei'ar Country and Through the Wadi Maseila.
28 pages. Plus photographic plates and a large fold-out colour map measuring approximately 10 x 15 inches (26 x 38cm). 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 most insightful first-hand account of the extraordinarily complex social and governmental organization in the Hadhramaut in its time of transition from early social organization to a slightly more developed government. The author discusses the seven distinct classes of society and the order of their importance, provides a thorough description of his journey through wadis and villages, and remarks on tribal raids, caravans, ruins, tombs, and much more. This is a comprehensive account, pre-dating the author's book, entitled "Arabia and the Isles," first published in 1942. The accompanied colour map shows Ingrams' traverse from Mukalla to Seihut of the Aden Protectorate. Ingrams was described by James Lunt as 'a strong man, with a deep understanding of the Arab psychology,' he became known as Al Muslahi, 'the settler [of disputes]'. Ingrams wore quasi-Arab dress—which he claimed was more comfortable and practical and was considered a compliment by the local people—and insisted his British staff did likewise (ODNB)

INGRAMS, W.H.
The Hadhramaut: Present and Future.
24 pages, plus photographic plates and a fold-out 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. This is an exceptional report on the Hadhramaut and the author's residency there, who also describes his stay in the Arabian Nights' palace of the Ba Surra brothers.

Residing in the little known region of the Hadhramaut the author takes occasional excursions into unvisited districts, into this arid and mysterious land. He focuses on a new found peace between the Badawin and tribesmen of this mysterious territory and explains a greater contact between different parts of the country, resulting in extended communications, such as the completion of the Al Kaf road. Illustrations include: Armoured car near Al Ghurfa,Trenches at Al Ghurfa,'Azan,capital of the sultanate of Balhaf, The 'aquaba for motors at Tarim, The Kathiri armed Constabulary, A peace meeting under the sanctuary tree at Reidat al Ma'ara, Surrender at Seiyun of the Bin Yamani section of Risib.

South-West Persia: A Survey of Pish-I-Kuh in Luristan.
17 pages, including black and white plates. Plus a large fold-out Colour 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. This is a fascinating travel account by the well-known traveller and geologist, Dr. Harrison, an account of the difficulties and the hardships of his journeys in Luristan, the broken mountainous country on the Iraq boundary, a rather inaccessible region of magnificent scenery. Cognisant of the dangers, Harrison travelled with a nominal escort and kept the mule caravan as small and unpretentious as possible. After his twenty years dedicated to exploration in Persia, he describes changes "from anarchy to order, from the primitive to the sophisticated, from distinctive tribal dress to uniform shabby hand-me-downs".
