1859réf. 320421Calcutta: Thacker Spink & Co. printed by P.M. Craneburgh at the Bengal Military Orphan Press 1859. First edition. iv 244 viii pp. 8vo. Original blue ribbed cloth spine gilt bookplate to front pastedown of Sir Charles P. Hobhouse Bart. Bradford-on-Avon presentation inscription to title page. A fine copy. First edition. iv 244 viii pp. 8vo. Inscribed on the title page: "For Annie with the Author's love." This copy also formerly belonged to Sir Charles Parry Hobhouse 3rd Baronet of Westbury. A crisp copy recording the anonymous author's seven month's of exploring through South East Asia in 1851 and 1853. Departing 8 September 1851 the author who remains anonymous to this day spent four months travelling to Ceylon and Singapore before returning to Calcutta. In 1853 he set off again this time for a three month excursion to the Madras and Bombay Presidencies. There are vivid descriptions of Singapore Penang Malacca Madras Calcutta Bombay Bangalore and Candy as well as coffee plantations and Buddhist temples. The author spends quite some time travelling overland and describes an ascent of Pedro Tallagalla and Kilkamany and camping at Makoortie Peak. Despite the scarcity of this little book it did attract critical attention. A favourable notice appeared in the Calcutta Review which states that the author had "seen and noted down . as much as any one who had preceded or who has since followed him in the same track." The work concludes with an appendix in two parts the first being a table showing the route modes of transport ship rail bandy pony and the amount of time spent at each location. The second is titled "Hints for travellers" which concludes: "Travellers will find it wiser never to have coolies to their palanquins when they can procure bearers; never to go in palanquins when they can with safety from the sun ride; never ride down passes when they can walk and never to be discouraged by indifference or dissuaded by alarms from prosecuting any enterprise." There is nothing in the preface to explain the six year delay between the conclusion of his travel and the publication of the account. Exceedingly rare. No copies on OCLC or COPAC. The only other copy we know of is the Brooke-Hitching copy identically bound; the present copy is in superior condition. The Calcutta Review vol. 33. July-December 1859. Serampore: "Friend of India" Press 1859 pp. lxviii-lxxi Thacker, Spink & Co. (printed by P.M. Craneburgh at the [Bengal] Military Orphan Press) unknown

1951réf. M9730London c.1951-1953. Very Good mounted on contemporary linen. Notes: A very scarce wall map of Bahrain published jointly by the Royal Geographical Society and the Bahrain Petroleum Company. The map depicts roads tracks buildings cultivated areas marshland and the Bahrain Refinery. Major cities as Awali Manama Town and Muharraq Town are shown in detail. The map has three large insets of Muharraq Awali and Manama. Bahrain small Arab state situated in a bay on the southwestern coast of the Persian Gulf. It is an archipelago consisting of Bahrain Island and some 30 smaller islands. Its name is from the Arabic term al-baḥrayn meaning “two seas.” The economy has long relied on processing crude oil from neighbouring countries and more recently the financial commercial services and communications sectors have grown markedly as has tourism. Britain’s decision to withdraw all of its forces from the gulf in 1968 led Bahrain’s independence in August 1971. A treaty of friendship was signed with the United Kingdom terminating Bahrain’s status as a British protectorate.
