The Bartlett Dam was a multiple arch reinforced concrete dam erected on the Verde River 36 miles northeast of Phoenix between 1936-1939. It was the highest dam of its type in existence. It was built by the Dept. of the Interior for the Salt River Water Users Association to store flood water of the Verde River render unnecessary the lowering of the reservoir along the Salt River during growing season and produce hydroelectric power for the region and city of Phoenix. The entire Salt River Project remains controversial to this day because of its initial funding that was guaranteed by the pledge of resident's land as collateral for federal loans to finance the project. Non-landowners were and are not permitted to vote on any issue in regard to the dam or its power generation to this day. The report covers all facets of construction supply and planning for the dam from the initial concrete plant through completion. It is thorough and highly detailed. The construction photographs are especially useful. Not Published hardcover books

ref. 25407Of Powell's fifteen letters: 2 from 1973 10 from 1974 1 from 1975 and 2 including one in autograph from 1976. On letterheads of House of Commons and 33 South Eaton Place London S.W.1. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. From the archives of Philip Dosse proprietor of Hansom Books publisher of the ‘Seven Arts’ group of magazines including ‘Books and Bookmen’ and ‘Plays and Players’. See ‘Death of a Bookman’ by the novelist Sally Emerson editor of ‘Books and Bookmen’ at the time of Dosse’s suicide in Standpoint magazine October 2018. The twenty items are in good condition lightly aged. Of Powell’s fifteen letters all signed ‘J. Enoch Powell’ five on House of Commons letterheads four on his Eaton Place letterhead and the others with the latter address typed. The letters deal with his review work in businesslike style of which the following on 13 June 1974 gives a good indication: ‘Should a book published by David and Charles entitled “Leadership in War” by Brig. Sir John Smythe VC come your way I would be glad to be in the market for reviewing it. No reply needed. I know you would bear this in mind.’ Six days later he writes: ‘I am returning the Richard Rose herewith. I took a spot check by looking up the reference to “Powell Enoch”. There are six of which however the last is a misprint. I think if you will apply the same test to the remainder you will understand why I would rather not review the book. / John Smythe V.C. has duly arrived and is in hand.’ A sixteenth item is an unsigned typed letter from Powell addressed in his autograph to ‘Dear Mr Dossé’ sic proposing a work he has been sent for review. There are also two Typed Letters both ostensibly signed by Powell’s handwriting ‘Peter Clarke’ the handwriting differs one regarding Powell’s ‘VAT number’ and the other the sending of a portrait photograph which he ‘hopes will meet the purpose mentioned in your letter’. The last two items are duplicates of Powell’s copperplate compliments slip. See sample image. Of Powell's fifteen letters: 2 from 1973, 10 from 1974, 1 from 1975, and 2 (including one in autograph) from 1976. On letterhead unknown

ref. 46400242, Barcelona, Torner, 1828; 2 vol. in-8, basane fauve marbr., dos ornés. (Rel. du XIX e siècle). Titre gravé, 3 ff., VIII pp., 334 pp.- Titre gravé, 1 f., 391 pp., 16 pp. et 3 planches gravées hors-texte. EDITION ORIGINALE de cet ouvrage rare et recherché. L'auteur est Benito Maria de Moxo, le dernier archevêque espagnol de Charcas, né à Cervera, et mort jeune, peu de temps après la révolution des colonies du Sud. Le baron de Juras Reales était son neveu, et il eut l'indélicatesse de ne point nommer son oncle en publiant cet ouvrage comme étant le sien. Dans une dédicace pompeuse, il dit avoir été prisonnier pendant 6 ans, et c'est pendant cette captivité qu'il se serait donné à l'étude et aurait rassemblé les matériaux de cette publication. Le livre est des plus intéressants pour l'histoire des indiens et des antiquités américaines. Il est divisé en 14 dissertations, accompagnées de notes, parmi lesquelles nous citerons les suivantes comme particulièrement précieuses pour les mœurs et anciennes coutumes Curieuses dissertations sur la musique indienne… sur les sacrifices humains…sur l'écriture hiéroglyphique des indiens…sur une ancienne peinture des Tarascos…sur un fait particulier à Colomb et un parallèle de la mort de lord… avec celle de Cortés… sur le nom de Fortunès donné par les anciens aux Canaries.
