Etat : New. 2015 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1926). SB. 232 pp,with 7 mapspublished Price £22 For Australia the First World War remains the most costly conflict in terms of deaths and casualties. From a population of fewer than five million, 416,809 men enlisted, of which over 60,000 were killed and 156,000 wounded, gassed, or taken prisoner. In general terms with Australian unit histories the quality of authorship is very good, most of them share the common strength of making plentiful mention of the individual officers and men who served, fought, died, was wounded, or taken prisoner, or who came safely home at the end of it all.

Cloth. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Under Steam and Sail. Here is a book for old salts and landlubbers alike. The former will relive old voyages, be reminded of familiar pleasures and perils. The latter will learn much and better understand the lures and risks ashore. The author is a Norwegian Sea Captain, a latter-day Norseman with blood of English sea-dogs in his veins and half a century's experience of The Seven Seas. Whether describing his actual escape from a Nzi firing-squad or near-escapes from hurricanes, Wall Street sharks or Chilian chicancery, Captain Wilson has siled close to the wind in more ways than one. As a result of an early episode a loophone in Norwegian law was discovered and there is a legal document named after him and he caused also an addition to the Laws of Malta. He is proud that his doggedness proved that Phoenician traders had ventured further north than was previous believed. His tale is fitting testimony to a life lived to the full. 120 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
