The autobiography of Doctor Armand Hammer, (Written with Neil Lyndon) who, in his life wore many hats: statesman, industrialist, philanthropist, envoy, entrepreneur. From his birth in Russia where, as a young man, he was asked by Lenin to bring capitalism to the Soviet Union in 1921; to putting together the Land Lease deal to aid Britain as it struggled against Hitler by itself in the early parts of the World War II, through to mercy missions for Soviet Jewry and the victims of the Chernobyl disaster. These are but a few of his accomplishments. Dust wrapper creased on the right-hand side of the front panel, rubbed on the top edge, and at the bottom of the spine section.

The binding is sound, with only a slight loss of colour at the head and tail of the spine. The author was formerly attorney-general of Palestine and has since 1932 held the Chair of International Rela- tions at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has set himself the difficult task of describing in a small compass, but in consider- able detail, the background, beginnings and growth of the Zionist Movement, -its practical achievements, the Arab-Jewish tug-of- war, and the successive phases of British policy in Palestine in the twenty years ending with the White Paper of 1939. The result is rather a crowded canvas and a picture which somehow does not quite come to life. The narrative flows smoothly on at an even pace, imparting useful knowledge but seldom stirring the imagination.In the earlier part of his book Professor Bentwich travels over well-trodden ground, but he has performed a useful service by bringing the story up to date. Nowhere else is there to be found, in an equally convenient form, an account of events in Palestine from the publication of the Peel Report in 1937 to 1943. Many readers will be tempted to turn first to the chapters in which Professor Bentwich passes from his narrative to his vision of the future. He takes the view that after the war there will have to be a period of international supervision, and suggests that " the United Nations may entrust the responsibility to a body which will represent the interest and the concern of all their people, as well as of the Jews and Arabs themselves." It would have been inter- esting to see this proposal more fully worked out. Given an interval of international control, Professor Bentwich is not without hope that the Jews and the Arabs may somehow come together, though on what basis is not entirely clear. What he does make clear is his conviction that the problem will have to be seen in a large% perspective if it is ever to be solved" both 'Jews and Arabs should be searching the sky for the wider horizon, knowing that the question will be finally judged by the world society. Securus judicat orbis terrarum. Wise words, which will, it may be hoped, find their mark. Courtesy of the archive of the spectator 7th of April 1944 page 22 Second Impression.

This was mankind's dream and desire, most arguably, since crawling out of the primordial ooze. It would be centuries before that dream would come true. Aviation itself has only been around in aircraft form since 1900. The first airplanes initially were crude machines without much use or perceived use. In a short 10 years after 1903 starting with World War I, aircraft became very useful and integral to war efforts. A newer design would quickly replace and cause the prior design to become obsolete in a matter of months or within a year. This obsolescence of aircraft repeated during World War II and later during the Cold War. Illustrated with colour photographs. GIFT QUALITY . Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.

Osprey's examination of one of the epic battles of the desert war of World War II (1939-1945). In March 1941, with Wavell's British troops having routed the Italians from Cyrenaica, General Erwin Rommel arrived in Tripoli to command the Deutsches Afrikakorps. Over the next two years the Afrikakorps and its commander would become legendary. In his first offensive, Rommel swept across the desert, driving the British back to the Egyptian frontier and capturing much of the 2nd Armoured Division in the process. One thorn remained in his side - the vital port of Tobruk continued to resist. If it could hold out Rommel's offensive might be halted.

To fly through the air to harness the power and freedom of the birds. This was mankind's dream and desire, most arguably, since crawling out of the primordial ooze. It would be centuries before that dream would come true. Aviation itself has only been around in aircraft form since 1900. The first airplanes initially were crude machines without much use or perceived use. In a short 10 years after 1903 starting with World War I, aircraft became very useful and integral to war efforts. A newer design would quickly replace and cause the prior design to become obsolete in a matter of months or within a year. This obsolescence of aircraft repeated during World War II and later during the Cold War. Illustrated with colour photographs. GIFT QUALITY . Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.

The binding is sound, with only a slight loss of colour at the head and tail of the spine. The author was formerly attorney-general of Palestine and has since 1932 held the Chair of International Rela- tions at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has set himself the difficult task of describing in a small compass, but in consider- able detail, the background, beginnings and growth of the Zionist Movement, -its practical achievements, the Arab-Jewish tug-of- war, and the successive phases of British policy in Palestine in the twenty years ending with the White Paper of 1939. The result is rather a crowded canvas and a picture which somehow does not quite come to life. The narrative flows smoothly on at an even pace, imparting useful knowledge but seldom stirring the imagination.In the earlier part of his book Professor Bentwich travels over well-trodden ground, but he has performed a useful service by bringing the story up to date. Nowhere else is there to be found, in an equally convenient form, an account of events in Palestine from the publication of the Peel Report in 1937 to 1943. Many readers will be tempted to turn first to the chapters in which Professor Bentwich passes from his narrative to his vision of the future. He takes the view that after the war there will have to be a period of international supervision, and suggests that " the United Nations may entrust the responsibility to a body which will represent the interest and the concern of all their people, as well as of the Jews and Arabs themselves." It would have been inter- esting to see this proposal more fully worked out. Given an interval of international control, Professor Bentwich is not without hope that the Jews and the Arabs may somehow come together, though on what basis is not entirely clear. What he does make clear is his conviction that the problem will have to be seen in a large% perspective if it is ever to be solved" both 'Jews and Arabs should be searching the sky for the wider horizon, knowing that the question will be finally judged by the world society.

In March 1941, with Wavell's British troops having routed the Italians from Cyrenaica, General Erwin Rommel arrived in Tripoli to command the Deutsches Afrikakorps. Over the next two years the Afrikakorps and its commander would become legendary. In his first offensive, Rommel swept across the desert, driving the British back to the Egyptian frontier and capturing much of the 2nd Armoured Division in the process. One thorn remained in his side - the vital port of Tobruk continued to resist. If it could hold out Rommel's offensive might be halted.

The autobiography of Doctor Armand Hammer, (Written with Neil Lyndon) who, in his life wore many hats: statesman, industrialist, philanthropist, envoy, entrepreneur. From his birth in Russia where, as a young man, he was asked by Lenin to bring capitalism to the Soviet Union in 1921; to putting together the Land Lease deal to aid Britain as it struggled against Hitler by itself in the early parts of the World War II, through to mercy missions for Soviet Jewry and the victims of the Chernobyl disaster. These are but a few of his accomplishments. Dust wrapper creased on the right-hand side of the front panel, rubbed on the top edge, and at the bottom of the spine section.

The binding is sound, with only a slight loss of colour at the head and tail of the spine. The author was formerly attorney-general of Palestine and has since 1932 held the Chair of International Rela- tions at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has set himself the difficult task of describing in a small compass, but in consider- able detail, the background, beginnings and growth of the Zionist Movement, -its practical achievements, the Arab-Jewish tug-of- war, and the successive phases of British policy in Palestine in the twenty years ending with the White Paper of 1939. The result is rather a crowded canvas and a picture which somehow does not quite come to life. The narrative flows smoothly on at an even pace, imparting useful knowledge but seldom stirring the imagination.In the earlier part of his book Professor Bentwich travels over well-trodden ground, but he has performed a useful service by bringing the story up to date. Nowhere else is there to be found, in an equally convenient form, an account of events in Palestine from the publication of the Peel Report in 1937 to 1943. Many readers will be tempted to turn first to the chapters in which Professor Bentwich passes from his narrative to his vision of the future. He takes the view that after the war there will have to be a period of international supervision, and suggests that " the United Nations may entrust the responsibility to a body which will represent the interest and the concern of all their people, as well as of the Jews and Arabs themselves." It would have been inter- esting to see this proposal more fully worked out. Given an interval of international control, Professor Bentwich is not without hope that the Jews and the Arabs may somehow come together, though on what basis is not entirely clear. What he does make clear is his conviction that the problem will have to be seen in a large% perspective if it is ever to be solved" both 'Jews and Arabs should be searching the sky for the wider horizon, knowing that the question will be finally judged by the world society.

This was mankind's dream and desire, most arguably, since crawling out of the primordial ooze. It would be centuries before that dream would come true. Aviation itself has only been around in aircraft form since 1900. The first airplanes initially were crude machines without much use or perceived use. In a short 10 years after 1903 starting with World War I, aircraft became very useful and integral to war efforts. A newer design would quickly replace and cause the prior design to become obsolete in a matter of months or within a year. This obsolescence of aircraft repeated during World War II and later during the Cold War. Illustrated with colour photographs. GIFT QUALITY . Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.

Osprey's examination of one of the epic battles of the desert war of World War II (1939-1945). In March 1941, with Wavell's British troops having routed the Italians from Cyrenaica, General Erwin Rommel arrived in Tripoli to command the Deutsches Afrikakorps. Over the next two years the Afrikakorps and its commander would become legendary. In his first offensive, Rommel swept across the desert, driving the British back to the Egyptian frontier and capturing much of the 2nd Armoured Division in the process. One thorn remained in his side - the vital port of Tobruk continued to resist. If it could hold out Rommel's offensive might be halted.

From his birth in Russia where, as a young man, he was asked by Lenin to bring capitalism to the Soviet Union in 1921; to putting together the Land Lease deal to aid Britain as it struggled against Hitler by itself in the early parts of the World War II, through to mercy missions for Soviet Jewry and the victims of the Chernobyl disaster. These are but a few of his accomplishments. Dust wrapper creased on the right-hand side of the front panel, rubbed on the top edge, and at the bottom of the spine section.

To fly through the air to harness the power and freedom of the birds. This was mankind's dream and desire, most arguably, since crawling out of the primordial ooze. It would be centuries before that dream would come true. Aviation itself has only been around in aircraft form since 1900. The first airplanes initially were crude machines without much use or perceived use. In a short 10 years after 1903 starting with World War I, aircraft became very useful and integral to war efforts. A newer design would quickly replace and cause the prior design to become obsolete in a matter of months or within a year. This obsolescence of aircraft repeated during World War II and later during the Cold War. Illustrated with colour photographs. GIFT QUALITY . Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.

The binding is sound, with only a slight loss of colour at the head and tail of the spine. The author was formerly attorney-general of Palestine and has since 1932 held the Chair of International Rela- tions at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has set himself the difficult task of describing in a small compass, but in consider- able detail, the background, beginnings and growth of the Zionist Movement, -its practical achievements, the Arab-Jewish tug-of- war, and the successive phases of British policy in Palestine in the twenty years ending with the White Paper of 1939. The result is rather a crowded canvas and a picture which somehow does not quite come to life. The narrative flows smoothly on at an even pace, imparting useful knowledge but seldom stirring the imagination.In the earlier part of his book Professor Bentwich travels over well-trodden ground, but he has performed a useful service by bringing the story up to date. Nowhere else is there to be found, in an equally convenient form, an account of events in Palestine from the publication of the Peel Report in 1937 to 1943. Many readers will be tempted to turn first to the chapters in which Professor Bentwich passes from his narrative to his vision of the future. He takes the view that after the war there will have to be a period of international supervision, and suggests that " the United Nations may entrust the responsibility to a body which will represent the interest and the concern of all their people, as well as of the Jews and Arabs themselves." It would have been inter- esting to see this proposal more fully worked out. Given an interval of international control, Professor Bentwich is not without hope that the Jews and the Arabs may somehow come together, though on what basis is not entirely clear. What he does make clear is his conviction that the problem will have to be seen in a large% perspective if it is ever to be solved" both 'Jews and Arabs should be searching the sky for the wider horizon, knowing that the question will be finally judged by the world society.

In less than two months the British forces swept 500 miles along the coast of North Africa. 7th Armoured Division raced across the desert to cut off the retreating Italians, and O'Connor's men destroyed 9 Italian divisions, and took 130,000 prisoners.

Osprey's examination of one of the epic battles of the desert war of World War II (1939-1945). In March 1941, with Wavell's British troops having routed the Italians from Cyrenaica, General Erwin Rommel arrived in Tripoli to command the Deutsches Afrikakorps. Over the next two years the Afrikakorps and its commander would become legendary. In his first offensive, Rommel swept across the desert, driving the British back to the Egyptian frontier and capturing much of the 2nd Armoured Division in the process. One thorn remained in his side - the vital port of Tobruk continued to resist. If it could hold out Rommel's offensive might be halted.
