ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1968). (1968) 1970 reprint. 8vo (143 x 222mm). Pp288. B/w illustrations by B.S. Biro. Teal boards, spine titled in gilt. Dedication to end-paper. Top edge slightly dusty, top corners bumped. Good-plus in rubbed dust-wrapper. John Norman Stuart, 'Johnnie', Buchan was the eldest son of the writer John Buchan, and succeeded to his father's title as the 2nd Baron Tweedsmuir. Johnnie followed a similar career to his father as a colonial civil servant and author, although in less resounding positions (his father was Governor General of Canada) and with smaller book sales. He also contributed to, and appeared as a character in, one or two of his father's later books. Tweedsmuir, as a member of the House of Lords, and his wife Priscilla, an MP in the Commons, were the driving force behind the Protection of Birds Act, 1954, and saw it through parliament between them. After Lord Tweedsmuir's death, the title passed to his younger brother, author and sometime London editor of Reader's Digest, William De l'Aigle Buchan. "Twenty years ago I married and made a home in Scotland after a generation's absence. We settled down in Aberdeenshire, where my wife, and her forbears, had always lived. We spent our first four years in a little castle among the high mountains, and the next sixteen years within sight and sound of the northern sea."

A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title. Author: Stuart Hills Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 272 Stuart Hills embarked his Sherman DD tank on to an LCT at 6.45 am, Sunday 4th June 1944. He was 20 years old, unblooded, fresh from a public school background and Officer Cadet training. He was going to war. Two days later, his tank sunk, he and his crew landed from a rubber dinghy with just the clothes they stood in. After that, the struggles through the Normandy bocage in a replacement tank (of the non-swimming variety), engaging the enemy in a constant round of close encounters, led to a swift mastering of the art of tank warfare and remarkable survival in the midst of carnage and destruction. His story of that journey through hell to victory makes for compulsive reading. Paperback.…

Bolsillo. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Aquest llibre és una antologia de diversos assajos que tracten el concepte de llibertat. Concretament, inclou els textos Sobre la llibertat, de John Stuart Mill, Sobre la llibertat de la voluntat, dArthur Schopenhauer i diverses conferències transcrites que lhistoriador i polític Lord Acton va fer a la universitat. Les dues primeres obres reflexionen des dun punt de vista més filosòfic sobre els límits de la llibertat individual i de la societat, sobre què significa realment ser lliure; daltra banda, Lord Acton explica quina ha sigut levolució de la llibertat al llarg de la història, se centra en èpoques i esdeveniments tan transcendentals com lantiguitat, laparició del cristianisme i del protestantisme, lauge dels whigs, la independència dels Estats Units, la Revolució Francesa o la democràcia a Europa, entre daltres. Així doncs, aquesta antologia barreja teoria i pràctica, planteja un debat sobre què és la llibertat i mostra exemples concrets de com sha anat consolidant i perdent en la humanitat. LIBRO.…
