1970Best.-Nr. 80685Delhi: Vikas Publishing 1970. First Thus. Octavo. 23.5cm. Publisher's orange cloth boards titled in black to spine. Dustjacket. 187pp. Strong and tight but visibly sunned to spine and edges of binding and a little bumped to the head of the spine. The priceclipped dustjacket is similarly sunned to the spine and has some light marginal wear but shows very well. A very good presentable copy. Internally clean with some annotation and emphasis to the text from an informed reader presumably Angus Thurmer. There is a 2 page letter from Major General Lunt dated January 1971 on Ministry of Defense notepaper to Angus Thurmer at the US Embassy in New Delhi discussing the book and the editing work and apprising Mr. Thurmer of his current status. Major General Lunt CBE had a prominent and successful career in the British Military spending a significant part of his career in India including a stint as Military Adviser to the High Commission there is a note on the title page to the effect that the book's attentive reader played Polo with Lunt whilst he was stationed in Delhi. The first edition of "From Sepoy to Subedar" was published in 1873 then languished forgotten for almost a century until Major General Lunt in his role as accomplished "Old India Hand" decided a new edition was called for. Primary source material for the period from native Indians is relatively thin on the ground spanning as it does Subedar Ram's memories of the Afghan Wars the first two the retreat from Khabul the subsequent trials and tribulations of a soldier's life and the post-"mutiny" changes to the leadership and administration of India and how badly that went. A fascinating account which should be ranked alongside "Confessions of a Thug" and Lady Florentia Sale's Journal as insights with all faults into the nature of life in and under the British Raj.

Best.-Nr. 897414 April 1871; 56 Friar Gate Derby. 12mo 2 pp. 24 lines of text. Good on lightly-aged paper. Laid down on a leaf from an album in such a way as the first line of the second page can only be read in mirror image by holding the item up to the light. Marvellously indicative of the patronising attitude of the governing British classes to their Indian subjects. On visiting Venables he will 'venture to bring with me my native servant' who 'does not require much in the way of accommodation'. If Venables 'has no corner for him' in his house asks if he can recommend 'a little room somewhere near'. 'He makes friends with all who see him is a Christian trustworthy quiet useful never in the way'. If Venables has 'any fear in the prospect of his appearance' he will 'have pleasant remembrances of him hereafter'. 14 April 1871; 56 Friar Gate, Derby. unknown

In 16° (cm 11,7 x 19,3), legatura piena pelle marmoreggiata coeva, titolo su tassello, fregi in oro al dorso, pp VIII, 184, impresa (di Barthélémy Chirol ad istanza di Gabriel Cramer) al frontespizio. Esemplare in buone condizioni. Destinati a porre rimedio all'ingiustizia dell'esecuzione del generale Lally, i "Fragments" apparvero, nella prima versione di XX Articoli, verso la fine del mese di luglio 1773. Questa prima edizione di Ginevra, impressa da Barhélémy Chirol su richiesta di Gabriel Cramer, fu seguita da vicino dall'edizione di Parigi e da una edizione pirata di Londra. Nell'edizione delle "Oeuvres complètes" di Kehl, il testo volterriano fu radicalmente alterato su autorizzazione di Condorcet, che implicato nell'"affaire Lally", volle "rettificare" gli "errori" di Voltaire. Come nell'"affaire Calas", Voltaire prese le difese di un individuo accusato ingiustamente, uscendo alla fine vittorioso dal confronto con il potere giudiziario. La critica volterriana della giustizia francese nell'opera, è la stessa che V. scaglia dai tempi del suo "Commentaire sur le livre Des délits et des peines de Beccaria": processi segreti, giudizi vaghi, codice di leggi fatto apposta per precisare i delitti inesistenti. Inoltre V. approfitta del teatro della guerra in India per colmare la sua curiosità sulle civiltà orientali, soprattutto in vista della campagnacontro la religione giudeo-cristiana. L'India è secondo lui la più antica civiltà, ed è sintesi della grandezza e insieme del ridicolo della specie umana. Esemplari censiti in COPAC.

1951Milano, 1951, stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 67/76 con fotografie, tavole fotografiche ed una cartina. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
