1984256 pages. Footnotes, bibliography and index. Profusely illustrated with black and white reproductions of sensational archival photos. "In this book, the complete story of the Zeppelin offensive, from Admiral Hugo von Pohl's successful campaign to persuade the Kaiser to initiate the raids, to the destruction of L53, the last Zeppelin to be brought down in combat, is chronicled in minute detail. The author has spent over ten years in personal research, which has extended to many interviews and much correspondence with surviving servicemen and close relatives of the leading personalities of the time, both British and German. Over 300 illustrations, most taken from private collections and not previously published, plus a large number of first-hand accounts, give a vivid insight into the drama of the times, and extensive appendices providing details of the men and machines involved complete a fascinating story that never before has been told with such thoroughness." - dust jacket.

réf. 118696Very Good. All are gelatin silver prints on thick stock; eight are oblique photographs 207 × 154 mm; two are vertical views approximately 165 × 220 mm; the larger ones are slightly creased at the corners one of them a little more so; the others are in excellent condition. All images are captioned in the negative. All eight oblique views carry the same date 25 June 1918 preceded by 'A3 AEO 62°' ranges from 110 to 121. Place names on them are Hamel Hamel Wood Somme Accroche Wood Tailloux Wood and Vaire Wood. The vertical images are dated 3 May and 27 June 1918 and carry a larger set of alpha-numeric references commencing 'A3 AE A 715' and '35 AE B 929' respectively. All ten prints have the signature 'Capt Sexton' in indelible pencil on the verso. Digitised service records indicate the signature is that of Eric James Sexton of the Adelaide suburb of Hindmarsh; he enlisted on 14 August 1914 shortly before his 21st birthday and was appointed to the 10th Battalion with the rank of lieutenant. He was wounded at the landing at Gallipoli promoted to captain the following day and later invalided back to Australia disembarking on 6 August 1915. By January 1916 he was declared fit again for active service and re-embarked in April for England where he performed various training roles. On 14 February 1917 he transferred to the Australian Machine Gun Training Depot with the rank of major. He embarked for Australia on 12 March 1918 arriving in Melbourne on 22 May 1918. Accordingly Sexton did not serve in France and was a major not a captain by the time these photographs were produced. We cannot explain the anomalies but will let the photographs speak for themselves. Significantly they show the area where the important Battle of Hamel was fought on 4 July 1918. 'Hamel was a big battle in miniature involving the experimentation of tanks and small ammunition drops as part of a broader all-arms offensive. While a coordinated offensive was not a new approach to warfare Hamel represented the culmination of three years of learning and innovation on the Western Front testing an all-inclusive approach to mobile warfare. The flawless execution of the operation resulted in Hamel becoming a model for future operations on the Western Front. In his account of the event Monash famously wrote that "the perfected modern battle plan is like nothing so much as a score for an orchestral composition where the various arms and units are the instruments and the tasks they perform are their respective musical phrases' Ellen Cresswell: 'The Experiment - Innovations at the Battle of Hamel' Australian War Memorial website. 10 items. unknown

1933réf. 64314Dresden Germany: Bilderstelle Lohse 1933. Oblong folio. 13.5 x 9.5 in. 36 leaves unnumbered printed in sepia on tan paper. With 155 of 156 silver gelatin cigarette card photos neatly mounted all w/ brown printed borders 1 tipped-in raised embossed bronze-foil reproducing the Naval Airshipmen’s Memorial in Wielhelmshaven 1 colour map text maps photo plate of Hermann Goering colour plates preserving original tissue guards. Photo-illustrated flexible covers red spine red lettering cover art of Graf Zeppelin flying over a steamship minor edgewear slight scuffing minor wear & bumping at lower right corner still a VG- exemplar. First edition of this follow-up cigarette card collectors photo album for the around-the-World voyages of the Graf Zeppelin LZ 127 along with opening chapter devoted to World War I Zeppelin operations. This album focuses as well on the 1930-1931 Arctic Voyages across the Polar Ice Archangel and over the Soviet Union including aerial views of Leningrad as well as traveling over Norway Sweden Denmark and Iceland -- the Polar flight was largely paid for with approximately 50000 stamp collector letters; the Mediterranean flights to Rome North Africa Palestine and back; as well as airship trips to Switzerland Austria Spain Italy and Germany from 1929-1933. One very nice series of images capture the opening of the transatlantic trips to South America 1931-1932. This album also chillingly represents the first ties of the Graf Zeppelin as a Nazi propaganda tool soon after the National Socialists came to power in 1933 with the colour plate here illustrating the new Nazi Government markings and the flight over Nuremberg for the notorious May 1 1933 Nazi May Day celebration. From 1931-1936 the Graf Zeppelin would cross the South Atlantic 136 times as part of the first regularly scheduled nonstop intercontinental airline service in World History. Following the 1937 Hindenberg disaster the Graf Zeppelin only made one additional flight June 18 1937 and was later broken up in March 1940 at the orders of Hermann Goering.

1930Very Good Turkish In modern photograph album including 40 photographs. In various sizes. Album size: (20x16 cm).

Prior to the upcoming World War II, it was carried out both as a review of the level of preparation of the armed forces and as a show of strength for potential enemy threats. First of all, the fascist movement led by Benito Mussolini in Italy and then the Nazis, led by Adolf Hitler in Germany, after they took the power to aggressively take up arms and run again to share the land in the European continent, were regarded as a sign of an upcoming war. Therefore, Turkish state officials, especially Atatürk, decided to get military exercises to prepare the armed forces for a military confrontation and to intimidate potential threats.
