Dust jacket is unclipped. Pages are lightly tanned. ABOUT THIS BOOK: The relationship between horses and humans is an ancient profound and complex one. For millennia horses provided the strength and speed that humans lacked. How we travelled farmed and fought was dictated by the needs of this extraordinary animal. And then suddenly in the 20th century the links were broken and the millions of horses that shared our existence almost vanished eking out a marginal existence on race-tracks and pony clubs. Farewell to the Horse is an engaging brilliantly written and moving discussion of what horses once meant to us. Cities farmland entire industries were once shaped as much by the needs of horses as humans. The intervention of horses was fundamental in countless historical events. They were sculpted painted cherished admired; they were thrashed abused and exposed to terrible danger. From the Roman Empire to the Napoleonic Empire every world-conqueror needed to be shown on a horse. Tolstoy once reckoned that he had cumulatively spent some nine years of his life on horseback. Ulrich Raulff's book a bestseller in Germany is a superb monument to the endlessly various creature who has so often shared and shaped our fate. Quantity Available: 1.

United Nations Department Of Economic Affairs
Proceedings of the United Nations Scientific Conference on the Conservation and Utilization of Resources Vol. VII Wildlife and Fish Resources
New York NY: United Nations. Very Good. 1951. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. Hardcover. B&W Illustrations and Photographs and Charts; This book is in Very Good condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The book and its contents are in generally clean bright condition. There is a slight slant to the spine of the book and some light bumping to the corners. The text pages are clean and bright. "The Conference was the outcome of a proposal made by President Harry S. Truman through the US representative on the UN Economic and Social Council in September 1946. President Truman envisaged "an exchange of thought and experience" among experts who would "not necessarily represent the views of the government of their nations but would be selected to cover topics within their competence on the basis of their individual experience and studies.The "need for such an exchange" President Truman wrote "was never greater. Warfare has taken a heavy toll of many natural resources; the rebuilding of the nations and the industrialization of under-developed areas will require an additional large depletion of them. Conservation can become a major basis for peace. Modern science has itself become a major international resource which facilitates the use of other resources. Their adequate utilization can become a major basis of world prosperity." In subsequent consultations on the agenda for the Conference discussion of atomic energy was excluded as being the province of the Atomic Energy Commission; " Certain items relating to irrigation problems" should be added it was suggested in its place. The conference programme also touched on nature conservation and sessions were scheduled so as to enable delegates to UNSCCUR and to the concurrent UNESCO/IUPN Conference on the Conservation of Nature to attend both conferences." from the UN-UNSCCUR website .

A MAGNIFICENT COLLECTION OF NINETEENTH CENTURY BOTANICAL WATERCOLOUR S OF SOUTH AFRICAN HEATHERS ERICA SPP.
United Kingdom 1840. Painting. Very Good. Unframed. Original. 24 x 29.5 Cm. A collection of 43 very fine early/mid 19th century comparatively large approximately 285 x 235 mm original watercolour studies of different species of South African Ericas each autographed with the species name. Housed in a red straight-grained morocco case with closing flap and the words "In Memoriam Madre Mia" in memory of my mother. While there is no reference to the originator of these studies they are executed in a style close to that used by Henry C. Andrews for his Monograph on the Genus Erica 1804-1812. The present watercolours do not correspond directly to those but the composition is similiar and it is possible they were executed by Andrews in connection with the publication. Notwithstanding they are highly accomplished reminiscent of the best botanical artists of the day. They are painted onto fine-textured card; this card for a number of paintings is blind embossed to the corners "Reynolds extra superfine London board" or "Bristol Paper". These papers would appear to date the paintings to the 1840's which would fit with the style of the paintings and lettering however the straight-grained morocco case might suggest an earlier date The paintings are generally in very good condition the colours fresh vibrant and unfaded a few are a little dust marked the paper lightly age-toned one or two small marks. The case is a little worn and rubbed to the edges the tap to pull out the flap is missing the paintings are very tight when all are in the case. An exceptional and important historical collection of original watercolour paintings of South African Ericas. unknown
