1888rif. 33602London: Kegan Paul Trench & Co. 1888. 2 volumes. First Edition. With pleasing provenance. With a fine map showing the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and the surrounding geography of the Middle East. Thick 8vo publisher's original dark green cloth the upper covers and spines lettered in gilt original green endleaves. xv 447 32 publisher's catalogue; vii 492 pp. A very bright and pleasing set as fine as can be expected. FIRST EDITION OF THIS ELUSIVE AND SIGNIFICANT WORK. Ainsworth's excellent account of the Euphrates expedition to which he was appointed surgeon and geologist. The expedition was intended to "examine the feasibility of opening up the Mesopotamian rivers to steam navigation as a new route to India as well as asserting British political presence in the area promoting British commercial ties and gathering scientific and archaeological data" ODNB. This is arguably the fullest contemporary account of the expedition as the fraught publication history of Chesney's account meant that his 'NARRATIVE.London 1868 was ultimately less detailed than intended. This copy was owned by John Brinton who was elected member of parliament for Kidderminster in 1880 but accepted the Chiltern Hundreds next month because he was holding a government contract at the time. He was reelected without opposition and held the seat until 1886. In 1887 he presented Brinton Park to Borough of Kidderminster. He became High Sheriff of Worcestershire in 1889 and was an Alderman of the County Council from 1890. His attractive engraved plate is at each pastedown. Kegan Paul, Trench & Co. hardcover
rif. 24124Without date or place but apparently written in Mesopotamia in late 1916. This poem is said to be an earlier work by ‘A Tommy’ the pseudonymous author of the collection ‘If I Goes West’ published in London by Harrap in 1918. WorldCat has no entries to support a second claim: that the present poem was published in 1917 with the subtitle ‘Verses written by a “Tommy” who has fought suffered and triumphed in Mesopotamia and is still on active service there’. While there is no indication that the poem has ever been published in its entirety extracts from it appeared in ‘The Bystander’ 27 November 1916; and ‘The Near East’ 6 July 1917; the latter headed ‘An Alphabet from Mesopotamia’ being preceded by the following: ‘A member of our Fighting Forces in Mesopotamia has composed some verses which he entitles “ The Alphabet of Mesopotamia.” Through the kindness of a correspondent we are allowed to reproduce here some specimens’. There may also be a reference in Catherine W. Reilly’s 1978 bibliography ‘English Poetry of the First World War’. Duplicated typescript titled ‘ALPHABET OF MESOPOTAMIA.’ 2pp foolscap 8vo. Text complete on two leaves of air mail paper glued together. Apparently contemporary and with the look of an item that has been handed around the mess room. Twenty-six four-line stanzas: one for each letter of the alphabet apart from a joint stanza for S and T and ending with an ‘ENVOI’. The first stanza reads: ‘ “A” Was an apple that grew so they say In the Garden of Eden down Qurnah way Till Eve came along and ate it one day And got thrown out of Mesopotamia.’ The poem includes the following stanzas: ‘ “F” Stands for Fritz who flies in the sky To bring down the brute we’ve many a try But the shells that we shoot seem to all pass him by And fall --- on Mesopotamia.’ ‘ “J” Is the jam with the label that lies And states that in Paris it won the first prize But out here we use it for catching the flies That swarm in Mesopotamia.’ ‘ “U” Is the Lake we call Umm-el-Brahm And guards our flanks from all possible karm sic And waters Gorringe’s Barley Farm In the middle of Mesopotamia.’ ‘ “V” Is the Victory we won at Dujailah I heard of it first from a friend who’s a sailor Who read it in Reuter’s on board a mahela On the Tigris in Mesopotamia.’ ‘ “W” Stands for the wonder and pain With which we regard the infirm and insane Old Indian Generals who guide the campaign Which we’re waging in Mesopotamia.’ ‘ “Y” Is the yearning we feel every day For a passage to Basra and thence to Bombay If we get there we’ll see that we stay right away From this wilderness - Mesopotamia.’ Without date or place, but apparently written in Mesopotamia in late 1916. unknown
