1555 — 8vo. (8), 183, (8) ff., last blank f. With woodcut printer's device on t. p. and three folding woodcut plates. - (Bound after) II: Bruto, Giovanni Michele. De rebus a Carolo V. caesare Romanorum imperatore gestis, oratio. Ibid., 1555. (48) ff. With woodcut printer's device on title-page and different, larger device on last f.; several woodcut initials. Contemporary limp vellum with ms label to spine. Traces of ties. Re-issue of the first edition, published the previous year. This documentation of the North African expeditions of Charles V against Tunis and the Arabian Coast was compiled by the Imperial envoy Scepper (d. 1554) from eyewitness accounts by Nicolas de Villegaignon and Juan Cristobal Calvete de Estrelle, augmented by extracts from Giovio and others. The remarkable views of sieges show the environs of Tunis as well as Algiers and El Kef (Aphrodisium). - Bound at the beginning of the volume is the first edition of Bruto's first work, a polished prose encomium for Charles V, dedicated to his son, King Philip II of Spain. Giovanni Bruto (1515-94), a banished Italian scholar, spent a large part of his life travelling and served as court historian to Emperors Rudolph II and Maximilian II. - A very clean, practically spotless copy. Title page of Bruto stamped; final flyleaf replaced by five modern blank leaves. With fine, contemporary acquisition note by the Austrian statesman and military commander Count Georg von Helfenstein-Gundelfingen (1518-73) on the pastedown, dated London, 1559 ("Emptus Lundini Angliae Metropol."), from the time of his diplomatic mission in Great Britain. "In 1558 Helfenstein was Imperial Governor of Upper Austria, in 1559 Prefect of the Imperial Court. At this time he was sent to England by Emperor Ferdinand to pursue a marriage between Ferdinand's third son, Archduke Charles, with Queen Elizabeth" (cf. ADB XI, 687).

Rerum Persicarum historia, initia gentis, mores, instituta, resque gestas [...]. Frankfurt, Andreas Wechel / Claude de Marne & Johann Aubry's heirs, 1601.

Folio (222 x 337 mm). (8), 644, (32) pp. With woodcut devices on title page (repeated at the end) and several pretty woodcut initials. Modern blindtooled leather binding, spine in six compartments and gilt spine title. Second, enlarged edition (first printed in 1583). Important collection of previously published works about Persia, including the travels of the Venetians Giuseppe Barbaro (1436) and Ambrogio Contarini (1473), "together with several other tracts relating to the Turks, including works by Callimachus, Minadoi, [etc.]" (Sotheby's, Atabey sale, no. 117). - Spine somewhat faded. Rather browned and foxed throughout due to paper, as common, but altogether clean; occasional insignificant worming to margins. Title and final leaf show stains from removed stamps.

Rerum a Sigismundo illustrissimo et fortissimo Transylvaniae principe contra Turcas gestarum brevis enarratio. [Prague, V. Maryn z Jencic], 1595.

4to. (48) pp. With woodcut title border. Modern full calf with blindstamped cover rules. Rare first edition of this account of Prince Sigismund Báthory's 1594 campaign against the Ottomans. At the time, Báthory's military successes against the Turkish forces attracted much notice in Europe. "The little book is quite jauntily written, providing a capsule history of the country up to Báthory's accession, then an account of the difficulties and hardships of the first years, the suppression of the 1594 conspiracy, naturally glorifying the Prince at the same time, and then gives a rather extensive account of the events of the campaign up to October 26. The numerous geographical names in the narrative are spelled correctly throughout" (cf. Apponyi). "Marchtaler knew Transylvania from a previous visit. The author did not himself participate in the campaigns against the Turks" (cf. Göllner). Although Apponyi speculated that the book might be an unknown publication by the Viennese printer Leonhard Nassinger, the Bohemian printer was conclusively identified by Ulrich Kopp of the Herzog August Bibliothek, Wolfenbüttel. - Some browning and brownstaining; ink pagination added by a contemporary hand. A good copy. VD 16, M 942 (cf. 943). BNHCat M 219. Göllner II, 2050. Hubay 360. Jügelt 47. Apponyi 562 ("apparently very rare").

Report on the British Indian Commercial Mission to South-Eastern Persia During 1904-1905. Calcutta, Office of the Superintendent of Government Printing, India, 1906.

Small folio (215 x 336 mm). (8), 156 pp. With a folding map in lower-cover pouch. Contemporary printed boards; spine reinforced with later black leather. Official report by Colonel A. H. Gleadowe-Newcomen (1853-1928), President of the Commercial Mission to Persia, of the mission's results regarding the state of British Indian trade in South-Eastern Persia and the consideration of measures which might bring about an expansion of Indo-Persian trade. Assistance to the mission was rendered by Major Percy Molesworth Sykes, then Consul at Kerman, as well as by Percy Cox, the British resident in the Gulf. - Paper brittle; some worming; a few edge flaws near the beginning. Upper cover trimmed at the head and somewhat crudely repaired. Rare. OCLC 69210748.

Report on Immigration, Land Settlement and Development. [Cmd. 3686.] - Appendix Containing Maps [Cmd. 3687.] London, His Majesty's Stationery Office, 1930.

Large 8vo (245 x 155 mm). 2 vols., comprising text volume and appendix of maps: 5 folding maps, all but one colour-printed, folding graph at end of text volume. Original blue-green wrappers. Complete with the very rare appendix of maps. In reaction to the 1929 violent unrest in Palestine, the British government in 1930 sent the Shaw Commission ("Palestine. Statement with regard to British policy", Cmd. 3582) to report on the situation in the Mandate. This concluded that Jewish immigration pressurized and displaced the Arab population, and rejected the view that the Jewish National Home was the principal feature of the Mandate. The Shaw Commission recommended an investigation into Palestine's economic absorptive capacity of Jewish immigration, and the present publication, Sir John Hope Simpson's report, concluded that the increasing number of Jewish land purchases was leading to a growing population of landless Arabs. Hope Simpson's recommendations of reduced Jewish immigration and restrictions on land transfers were adopted by the Passfield White Paper ("Palestine. Statement of policy by His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom", Cmd. 3692) that same year. - Maps 1 and 6 with very small holes at some creasefolds and a few very short marginal tears and nicks, maps and accompanying text in appendix with light dog-earing. Map 3 apparently never issued. Wrappers to text volume faintly creased, appendix unevenly faded and extremities lightly rubbed. Extremely rare. Khalidi & Khadduri 1658. Cf. Bryars & Harper, A History of the 20th Century in 100 Maps (2014), p. 79.

Report on flight from Baghdad to Egypt. RAF 31st Wing Headquarters, Baghdad, 22. III. 1919.

Folio (210 x 340 mm). 4 pp. Typescript. Lively report of an eventful flight taken by Sir Arnold Talbot Wilson (1884-1940), Civil Commissioner of Mesopotamia, aboard one of two RAF aircraft leaving Baghdad on 25 February 1919 bound for Cairo. Bad weather conditions and repeated engine trouble resulted in several emergency landings and delayed the journey, which Wilson eventually had to complete by train. - The first day of the trip involved heavy wind and a failing petrol pump causing the pilots Boyd, Nuttall and Lapraik to land and fix the pump near Tadmur before carrying on to Damascus, where they remained for three days of heavy rain. Upon continuing the journey on 28 February, one of the engines failed and the planes were forced to land in "difficult country". As repair seemed hopeless, Boyd decided to fly Wilson on to Ramleh and then return for Nuttall and Lapraik: "The taking off proved a difficult undertaking as the machine was firmly bogged, and the engine fall out would not move it. The Arabs however rendered enthusiastic assistance. About 200 of them surrounded the machine, and in spite of the fact that most of them pulled in different directions [...] after an hour's work and much shouting, succeeded in moving it to a comparatively firm piece of ground, from which it was possible to take off [...]". - When the aircraft got hopelessely bogged again near Tulkarm, Wilson continued his journey by train. In the meantime, Nuttall and Lapraik, who "were hospitably entertained by the Arabs", succeeded in a makeshift repair of the first plane's engine and picked up Boyd. The return flight to Baghdad with two substitute aircraft proved much smoother, involving only minor repairs and no emergency landings off the runway. The 500 mile distance between Damascus and Baghdad was completed in a non-stop flight of 4 hours 10 minutes "which probably constitutes a World's Record". - Slightly dampstained near right margins; a little foxed and creased. Traces of a rusty paper pin. A rare survival.

Report of the Commission Appointed by Act of Parliament to Enquire Into the Operations of War in Mesopotamia, Together with a Separate Report by Commander J. Wedgwood [...]. London, His Majesty's Stationery Office, 1917.

188 pp. With 2 (out of 3) lithographed plates ("annexures"), of which 1 folding table showing the movements of all army units from the landing in Suez "up to the present state". Original blue printed wrappers. Official report of the Mesopotamia Commission appointed in August 1916 to investigate the events connected with the Siege of Kut Al-Amara, the worst Allied defeat of the Great War. The Commission's remit was to enquire "into the origin, inception, and conduct of operations of war in Mesopotamia, including the supply of drafts, reinforcements, ammunition, and equipment of the troops and fleet, the provision for the sick and wounded, and the responsibility of those departments of Government whose duty it has been to minister to the wants of the forces employed in that theatre of war" (p. 3). In the spring of 1916, T. E. Lawrence had been dispatched to Mesopotamia to assist in relieving Kut by either starting an Arab uprising or negotiating a secret deal with Enver Pasha, offering £2 million for the free retreat of the troops; the mission produced no useful result, and General Townshend surrendered on 29 April after a siege of 147 days. Some 13,000 Allied soldiers survived to be made prisoners. - Contents include: Origin of Mesopotamia expedition; Advance from Basra to Kurna; The advance from Amara and Kut; Correspondence and telegrams as to advance on Baghdad; The advance from Kut to Ctesiphon; Operations for relief of Kut; Armament, equipment, reinforcements; Transport; Medical breakdown; Causes contributing to the errors of judgment and shortcomings of responsible authorities; Findings and conclusions; Separate report by Commander J. Wedgwood; Vincent-Bingley report; Memorandum by Sir Beauchamp Duff; Colonel Hekir's account of the siege of Kut-el-Amara. - Waterstained throughout; edges and corners severely wrinkled, bumped and frayed; traces of dod-earing. Binding soiled; spine chipped. OCLC 3303415. Cd. 8610.
