Jeweller Michael Bassett was expecting gemstones, but instead he found a stack of some 250 letters and a 'guest book'. Between 1938 and 1946, Dorothy, as a young music-teacher, left Lancashire, married Paul May - stage-manager of the State Theatre in Freiburg - and set up home there at the height of the Third Reich. Paul was conscripted into the Wehrmacht in 1942, and by New Year he was at Stalingrad ... and soon lost to sight. Dorothy's letters to her husband, written in English, recording her daily round, soon started to arrive back marked 'return to Sender'.

Bibliographically interesting. Indeed this volume discusses at length excess profit within bookselling. This single sheet is tipped in and the booksellers dispute Babbage's claim that they would not stock his book, an indignant retort! This is regarded as the earliest paper on the scientific management of factories and of course was influential in the industrial activities of the period. Babbage is now considered to be the "father of computers", and…

New York: Cune Press, 2022. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. A fine new copy of this hardcover. This is the true story of how three British Secret Service agents from the Arab Bureau in Cairo helped General Allenby defeat Germany's ally, the Turks, and end World War One. Lawrence of Arabia reignited a failing Arab Revolt by training and leading a guerrilla force of Arab irregulars to take the port of Aqaba on the Red Sea. John Harte's book - as well as focusing on a critical moment that David Lean featured in his famous film in which young Captain Lawrence discovers a secret back door into the Turkish interior - also describes the forgotten nomadic life of the Bedouin tribes and their raiding parties, the founding of oil-rich Saudi Arabia led by King Ibn Saud, and his double-agent, the treacherous Major St John Philby whom spymaster Major Gertrude Bell of the SIS had trained in spy-craft. 240pp..
