Description:
Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1946. First U.S. edition, only printing. Hardcover. This is a jacketed copy of the U.S. first edition, only printing of the sixth of Churchill's seven war speech volumes. Victory contains speeches from January to August 1945. Having done so much to win the war, Churchill faced frustration of his postwar plans when his wartime government fell to Labor in the General Election of July 1945. His final speech in this volume - a review of the war delivered on 16 August 1945 to the House of Commons - is delivered as Leader of the Opposition rather than as Prime Minister. Condition is good plus in a good dust jacket. The red cloth binding is square, clean, bright, and tight, though with bumps to the corners and wrinkling to the spine ends. The contents are clean, though age-toned. We find no previous ownership marks. A few tiny instances of spotting appear confined to the upper fore edges. The dust jacket retains the original $3.50 front flap price and the red spine…

Portland & London: Frank Cass, 2003. First Edition, First Printing. Fine Hardcover in a Fine Dust Jacket. New/New. No Flaws or Blemishes but minimal shelf handling; Still Gift Quality. 8vo; 242 pages with extensive bibliography and index.. The strategy of the British and French prior to World War II was to preserve the status quo after the disaster of World War I. Donald Stoker's book examines British and French involvement from 1919 to 1939 in the creation and development of the naval forces of Poland, Finland and the three Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. This is an in-depth scholarly study of a subject that should appeal to students of international history, strategy, international relations and naval history in general.
