In good condition lightly aged with slight traces of glue from mount along inner edge of reverse of second leaf which is endorsed and carries pencil notes. Folded once. Signed by Thornton with the rest of the document in the hand of a secretary. The recipient is named as T. W Smyth Esq West Hartlepool Shipowners Society'. He writes with reference to a letter and telegram and states that he has been 'making constant representations to the Russian Acting Minister of the Interior with regard to the hardship and severity of the fourteen days quarantine imposed upon vessels arriving from Italy at Russian Ports of the Black Sea notwithstanding their having already performed ten days quarantine in Turkish waters'. None of Thornton's arguments have 'succeeded in inducing the Imperial Government to counterorder or relax this excessive quarantine' but the subject is 'still under the consideration of the Medical Board' and Thornton will not discontinue his 'efforts on behalf of British Shipping'.

1944rif. HIRU00006New York & London: Harper & Brothers 1944 WYSIWYG pricing--no added shipping charge for standard shipping within USA. Blue cloth red titles on spine vii 269 1 pp. Extremities rubbed. DJ has two 2 cm tears other small chips & tears; in Brodart archival cover. The author Russian-born wife of American journalist Louis Fischer and herself a gifted translator and interpreter writes about her personal experiences living in the Soviet Union during 1921 and 1927-39. As a personal memoir it hardly mentions the disastrous famines first under Lenin and in the 1930s under Stalin. However while impressed by attempts at improving health care and housing and providing mass education for the first time in Russian history she was not blind to the crimes and absurdities of Communist government and particularly its frequent reversals of policy and criminalization of those who had most loyally implemented the previous party line. It is especially enlightening for its view of everyday life in Moscow during the 1930s even if it is the life of a privileged foreigner. Shipping weight 2 lbs. First Edition. . VG/VG-. 21 X 13½ cm.
