London: Printed at The Field Press 'For Private Circulation Only' [by Charles Alma Baker], 1920. Very Good. London, Printed at The Field Press 'For Private Circulation Only' [by Charles Alma Baker], [1920]. Large quarto, [vi], 148 pages with a pictorial title page and small decorations (by Fred Leist) and 2 illustrations (of pamphlet covers) plus an additional colour pictorial title page (by Leist), a frontispiece portrait of Baker, 40 plates depicting 78 individual gift battle-planes, 4 plates showing various types of aircraft, and 8 monochrome plates of air battles (after paintings, one by Leist, the others by the official British war artist of the RFC/RAF, Joseph Simpson); all plates have tissue-guards. Full cream vellum, lettered and decorated in gilt on the spine and front cover, top edge gilt, others uncut; vellum a little mottled; boards slightly bowed and a little bumped at the corners; endpapers foxed; one tiny inkspot to the bottom edge (impacting very slightly on a few bottom margins); an excellent copy. Inscribed in pencil on the initial blank page 'With the compliments of the Honorary Organiser, C. Alma Baker'; mounted above this inscription is an original pencil drawing (approximately 160 × 210 mm, dated 1918 and signed with indecipherable initials) of the nose of the SE5a biplane, 'The Victory', one of the gift aircraft (it appears in the plate facing page 51). Mounted on the verso of the same blank is an original cabinet card photograph (100 × 150 mm, on the original card mount, both a little spotted on two margins), captioned in white ink 'Farmers and Settlers Battleplane Fund, 1918'. An additional label attests to the amount contributed by them (£141); the money was put towards the purchase of 'The Victory'. Baker's address to the Farmers' and Settlers' Conference, July 1917, is reproduced on pages 50-53. New Zealand-born Charles Alma Baker (1857-1941) made a fortune from mining and rubber in the Federated Malay States in the early twentieth century. 'A strong believer in King and Empire, Baker was a prominent fundraiser for the Royal Flying Corps during the First World War, raising funds in Australia and Malaya for the purchase of 94 aircraft. For this work he received the CBE in 1919' (C. Alma Baker Trust website). This deluxe volume commemorates this extraordinary project.

New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1927. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. This is a jacketed U.S. first edition set of the 1916-1918 volumes of The World Crisis, Churchill's acclaimed history of the First World War. A quarter of a century before the Second World War endowed him with lasting fame, Winston Churchill played a uniquely critical, controversial, and varied role in the War to end all wars. The events of these 1916-1918 volumes include Churchill's time at the Front following his political exile and his subsequent return to the Cabinet. The U.S. is the true first edition, as U.S. Volume I publication preceded the British. Jacketed first editions are quite scarce - jacketed U.S. editions even more so. Charles Scribner's Sons originally issued the 1916-1918 volumes as a two-volume set. This set is very good plus in very good dust jackets. The bindings are extremely clean, marked only by slight dulling to the bottom edges of the spines. The contents are clean and tight with…

At the head of the map are large sketches of 'Frame of Kerosene Tin Raft in Turkish Attack' and 'Sketch of Turkish Pontoons captured at Toussoum-Serapeum 4.2.1915'. The Australian War Memorial has one of the 24 pontoons used by the 4th Turkish Army in their attempt to cross the Suez Canal in its collection. In fact, the AWM records that 'The action in which it was captured was the first in which a unit of the AIF (3 Field Company Australian Engineers) was engaged, and as such this trophy was the first captured by the army [in the First World War].... by May 1918, the Australian War Records Section was lobbying for an example to be brought back to Australia, noting that while Australian involvement by 3 Field Company Engineers was small, it was important'.
