No ownership marks. Illustrated with photographs. xv, 331 pages. "The two-week battle for Corregidor was complicated by the American's gross underestimation of enemy strength: expecting a few hundred demoralized defenders, they encountered more than 6,000 Japanese soldiers and marines deployed in tunnels and caves, every man dedicated to the Bushido code that dictated a fight to the death. As the dust was settling, MacArthur himself came ashore and was greeted by the commander of the victorious U.S. Army troops. 'Sir, ' said Col. George Jones, 'I present to you the Fortress Corregidor' -- a stirring conclusion to a dramatic and well-told story". -- Publishers Weekly. .

Detailed information for the model builder. When the American colonies declared their independence in 1776, they were ill-prepared for a regular maritime war, and consequently pressed into service ex-privateers and many small and fast merchant ships before building a small number of frigates and lesser warships. Great Britain, on the other hand, had the largest navy of the time, but still found herself poorly equipped to fight a guerilla war at sea and so also increased the numbers of small craft by purchase and capture. This book presents a representative sample of these smaller ships - privateers and regular warships, American and British - including an example of the kind of…

London & Boston: Routledge & Kegan Paul. Very Good/Very Good. 1972. First Edition. Hard Cover. 8vo 0710070462 Dust jacket price clipped. Black cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. Neat name on paste down 207 pages. This important work of Chaucerian scholarship deals with two aspects of the poet and his work - his individual achievement and his place in history and demonstrates that in both these senses Chaucer is a maker of English poetry. The book is divided into two volumes. In Volume II, the author explores Chaucer's narrative art. The book includes an examination of the puzzling question of narrative structure in the Canterbury Tales and of the nature of Chaucerian comedy in these works. The author surveys the major themes of the poems: Fortune and free will, marriage, and the nobleness of man. In the final chapter she treats of the meaning of Chaucer's art for his successors. Throughout the work, Miss Kean deals extensively with the sources which…

It was no tourist trip from one luxury hotel to the next; there were no luxury hotels in the places they went to, and in any case they preferred to "do for themselves" at each vandrarhem, or hiker's hostel, they stayed at. If there wasn't a vandrarherrz they camped. From Gothenburg to Lapland and Finland, up the heart of Sweden, and back south again along the shores of the Baltic; through remote villages and by busy…

Brown cloth with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership inscription. 73 pages clean and tight. George MacBeth has been called "the most versatile poet writing today", and "arguably the most inventive and entertaining poet now writing in England", and has been invited to "pack it in". He is invariably provocative. The poems in his new collection were written between September 1971 and September 1972, and are published in the order in which they were written. The first was begun in Darmstadt, standing in front of the only building to survive the Allied raid in 1944, and the last arose out of losing a watch in the sea. Not for the first time, death and sexual energy are mainsprings, but there is also a greater concern with time and the effects of time than has been evident in George…

Original fawn cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership inscription. 66 pages clean and tight. The governing notes of George MacBeth's new collection are feelings of regret and expectation, the grief and joy which spring from a death and precede a birth. As in Poems from 0by, these emotions are worked out against the changing seasons of the Norfolk countryside, in which MacBeth now has firm roots. There is humour too, as well as lyricism and nostalgia. The Long Darkness confirms the change of direction marked by Poems from 0by: it has the sustained power and the true voice of a master craftsman who is willing to subdue all the resources of technique in the service of exactly what he wants to say. The Long Darkness is the Poetry Book Society Recommendation for Winter 1983. .
