Condition: New. 574pp, sb. 2002 N&MP Reprint of 1910 Original EditionPublished Price £38 In the 1890s the Government of India and some of the provincial governments began to take an interest in various individual initiatives to record the inscriptions on graves and monuments in the British cemeteries and churches of the sub-con…tinent. Volume 1 of the Indian Monumental Inscription Series, devoted to Bengal, appeared in 1896. Volume 3 (Madras) followed in 1905, and Volume 2 (Punjab, North-West Frontier Province, Kashmir and Afghanistan) was published in two parts in 1910 and 1912.There were also un-numbered volumes for the Central Provinces and Berar, Hyderabad, Rajputana and Central India, and the North-West Provinces and Oudh. Volume 2 is extremely impressive and useful because of the mass of biographical notes which forms its second part and which no other volume has. Its geographical coverage also means that it deals with some of the major military actions of British India, from the two Sikh Wars to the Mutiny, the Second Afghan War and the recurrent campaigns on the frontier.The list of 1100 inscriptions was compiled by Miles Irving, Balliol Scholar and Indian Civil Service officer serving in the Punjab. The biographical notes are the work of George William de Rhe-Philipe, a member of the humbler Uncovenanted Civil Service.Little is known of this indefatigable researcher.The family was of Huguenot origin, from the Ile de Re opposite La Rochelle, but long domiciled in India. His father William was Head Assistant in the Judge Generalâs Department at Simla, where George William was born on 27 May 1844.After a long career in the public service George William ended up as Senior Clerk in the Government of India Military department, an official position which gave him unrivalled access to the sources for his notes. He died at Simla on 31 July 1919. Because most of the biographies are of army officers, many of them battle casualties, the work has a special interest for todayâs medal collector.It has long been classified as ârareâ, held only by a handful of major libraries.The value and importance of this work cannot be underestimated.

Add to basketUnbound Pages. Condition: Very Good. Fourth Edition. Stapleton, a Yorkshire Catholic gentleman, is accused of involvement in the Popish Plot. Tried amid the height of antiâ'Catholic hysteria, his case turns on informer testimony and the political pressures of the Exclusion Crisis. His conviction exemplifies the miscarriages of j…ustice characteristic of the Plot prosecutions. 6 PAGES, printed in double columns. A genuine 1776 printing taken from the authoritative Complete Collection of State Trials. Originally compiled to serve both as a legal reference and a vehicle of political discourse, the State Trials series shaped contemporary and subsequent understanding of justice, authority, and dissent. The generously sized sheets on which these trials are printed offer particular pleasure to the eye and hand, bearing clear signs of their handmade origin: chain lines and wire impressions from the mould are readily visible, some pages display watermarks, and the paper varies subtly in thickness, all characteristic of 18th century rag paper. This particular trial report has been preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 30 x 47 cms. Category: State Trials; Printed before 1800; State Trials::Large Folio. This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK. If extra postage is required we will contact you before processing your order and you will be given the details and option to decline the extra cost.

In English. 110 p. with rich separate advertisements, and a fine folded b/w map titled "Desert motor-routes" on a scale of 1:4,000,000. Slightly f…ading on cloth, otherwise a fine copy. First and only edition of this rare complete and very detailed desert motor-routes' guide for the Anglo-Egyptian motorists, printed by the Egyptian Touring Association in Cairo, including details about hospitals, "what to do in cases of accidents on the roads", free legal defence, hotels, garages as well as itineraries, pedestrian crossings, speed limits in the country, parking regulations of Sharia Kasr el Nil, Adly Pasha, no-lights area, railway bridges, postal rates, exchange rates, rates of freight on motor cars by sea and rail, kilometers into miles, transcontinental road London - Istanbul with other useful information. This guide was explained in the introduction as "This handbook has been compiled for the benefit of members and is issued to them free. Extra copies may be obtained from the Head Office, 3 Sh. Cattawi Bey, Kasr el Nil, Cairo, at the price of P.T. 10. It contains a good deal of useful information regarding touring of all kinds in Egypt and abroad including a list of recommended hotels and garages throughout the country. "The president of the Association which was founded in 1932, was H.E. Sir Miles Lampson (1880-1964). He was a British diplomat who was appointed High Commissioner for Egypt and Sudan in 1934. As a result of the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty in December 1936, to which Lampson was a signatory, Britain loosened its grip on Egypt and the post title was changed to Ambassador to Egypt and High Commissioner for Sudan in 1936. Lampson continued in this office until 1946. Vice presidents were Sir Stenson Cooke and J. A. Crawford. According to the ETA's service page of the guide, the purpose of the association can be determined as "Association was formed to provide a long-felt want in Egypt, that is, a touring club in the true sense of the word, devoted to the interests of all kinds of travelers. It's a non-profit making co-operative organization with the aim of making the path of the motorist, the airman, the camper, and every other kind of traveler pleasanter and smoother. The E.T.A. is officially recognized by the Egyptian Government and already in its short existence has grown enormously, being able to offer the following very real services to its members: Expert and detailed advice on all touring matters. Expert advice on motoring matters and vetting of cars. Free itineraries to all parts of Egypt and abroad. Reminders are sent to all members when a car and driving license is due for renewal. Renewal of car and driving licenses. Free legal defense for motoring offenses. Triptyques, carnets, and all documents for foreign touring, including passport arrangements. Agents at Alexandria, PortSaid, Suez, and the principal ports to look after the incoming and outgoing motorist and relieve him of all worry. A full stock of maps and guide books of Egypt and other countries. Up-to-date information on the state of roads and desert tracks. Welcome and help from the 100 odd touring clubs of the A.I.T. [i.e. the Alliance Internationale de Tourisme], of which the E.T.A. is a member. Recommended hotels and garages throughout Egypt and the Near East. Insurance for members can be effected at the most advantageous rates, and advice is given. Cars can be driven to any part of Egypt, by experienced drivers. Guides are provided. Other benefits, it is hoped, will be given in due of course.". Not located in OCLC. "1938-39 Edition" of the series (not published more than two years) is located in OCLC in no. 862336537.
