2003170 pp. Bibliography of books [in English] about Bethune. Eighty-five black and white reproductions of documents. Opens with an informative fifteen page footnoted introduction by David Lethbridge. Dr. Norman Bethune [1890-1939] is revered to this day in China for his front-line medical service to the Communist Army in the late 1930s. "But from the moment he joined the Communist Party of Canada, the RCMP secret intelligence division kept extensive and detailed files on his every move. Only recently declassified, and fully reproduced for the first time in this volume, are the actual secret police files on Bethune. Never before have Bethune's own words spoken so clearly about the political convictions and personal courage that have led him to be remembered as a revolutionary militant of 'absolute selflessness.'" - back cover.

Harry Mathias Gousha a former Rand McNally went independent in 1926 and relocated to California in 1947. It was a propitious time as the 50s in most respects witnessed the onset of the great American phenomenon of the Road Trip. With the improvement in cars longer and longer trips became feasible. None of the great Interstates as we know them today were in existence at that time so road maps were essential for any successful road trip. The H.M. Gousha Company was one of the "Big Three" major producers of road maps and atlases in the United States during the 25 years following World War II General Drafting and Rand McNally were the other two. Shell maps of this era although free are notable for their high-quality cartography colorful graphics and often included travel tips local advertisements and information about Shell services. The H. M. Gousha Company produced millions of oil company road maps used as marketing tools distributed at no charge at gas stations by customers that included Gulf Oil Conoco Shell Standard Oil and dozens of others. Though most Gousha maps were produced for oil companies many others were issued for customers not related to the petroleum industry including automobile clubs state governments banks and realtors. Ironically the company was purchased by Rand McNally in 1996. H.M. Gousha Co. hardcover
