Description:
London: Printed by J. Barfield for Cadell and Davis, and Others, 1800. Octavo. 2nd edition. Volume one. Translated from the French. 379pp., three folding maps, (one very large map has old repair to fold). This is basically a reprint of the 1797 first edition with a few changes and corrections and of course with added maps. He had planned a five volume set over the next couple of years 1800-1801. Bound in full calf, spine flat and decorated in gilt, joints rubbed and somewhat fragile, closed edge tear to last page. Author's note: "It is scarcely necessary to say, that the high price to which paper has lately risen, and the still greater increase of expence, incurred by the addition of the maps, do not permit the price of this volume to be left the same as that of the first edition". A good copy.

"52 Days of 1943" tells the story of the 52-day battle at Leros island and the ship-legend of the Greek Navy "Queen Olga". This album is the result of investigations which lasted almost five years: hundreds of photos, over thirty hours of digital video, underwater shooting by the findings of the war, dozens of hours of discussions with survivors, Greeks and foreigners. The photos are accompanied by short texts, true relay memories, shocking stories of people who were eye-witnesses and illuminate unknown parts of the World War II history.
// ... "depth 42 feet, a German transport plane appears before us, inside us shudder human bones, the sinking of the destroyer "Queen Olga", a legend of the Greek Navy illuminated after 60 years.

Inscription reads, "To Richard Best Wishes." Book will be bubble wrapped upon shipping.At the same time Adolf Hitler was attempting to take over the western world, his armies were methodically seeking and hoarding the finest art treasures in Europe. The Fuehrer had begun cataloguing the art he planned to collect as well as the art he would destroy: "degenerate" works he despised. In a race against time, behind enemy lines, often unarmed, a special force of American and British museum directors, curators, art historians, and others, called the Monuments Men, risked their lives scouring Europe to prevent the destruction of thousands of years of culture.
