	BALFOUR PATRICK Lords of the Equator : An African Journey National Book Association Hutchinson & Co, U.K. 1939. Hard Cover. Very Good/Good. 282 pages. Illustrated frontis. ' The question of Germany's lost colonies is a most important topic. Mr. Balfour, whose interest in Africa had already been stimulated by a journey across the Sahara and experiences as a war correspondent in Abyssinia, undertook a ten thousand-mile journey through Central Africa with the especial object of study ing the ex-German mandates. He saw three mandates at work under Britain, France, and Belgium respectively, and here sets forward for the first time the views of these countries themselves on the matter of their future. But this accounts only for one aspect of this witty and illuminating travel book. The reader covers the whole field of modern Africa in Mr. Balfour's lively and intelligent company, delighting in his shrewd and informative comments on everything and everyone he sees: the curious habits of native and European, the problems of administration, the beauties and incongruities of this continent which has been called dark and mysterious for too long. Mr. Balfour maintains that Central Africa is now accessible to the ordinary traveller (he crossed it himself by air, river, and rail, but chiefly by hopping from one native lorry to another), that it is no longer the haunt of explorers and adventurers but a rapidly developing country which must now be regarded as such. His book might have been called "Inside Africa." It will appeal not only to the lover of good entertainment and good writing but to the student of world aftairs who realises that Africa provides one of the greatest problems of the future '.

	BECKWITH, IAN Book Of Gainsborough Barracuda Books, UK, 1988. First Edition, Hardcover (Original Cloth). Fine (Far Better Than Very Good)/Fine. Size: 10.5 inches tall by 8 inches. 160 pages. ‘Both Romans and Britons tilled the soil round Gainas' Burh, but the Danes left an indelible mark on place and people's names in what had been a Saxon settlement, soon overtaken by Norman lords. A 'borough' with a market by charter, Gainsborough was dominated by its lordly landowners — men like Thomas Burgh and William Hickman. When civil war came, the Hickmans were doubtful in their allegiance, as was the town. First one side, then the other, seized the town. A medieval river port, Gainsborough's trade increased in the 17th century, and in 1841 was competing with Hull as a port with its own customs house. The prosperity of the period shaped the historic townscape, but soon after, the railways brought decline. The town itself grew slowly, first by infilling — the series of yards echoing the original toftsteads, or garden strips—and then through Palladian terraces and eventually New Town. Population exploded when machinery replaced men in the farming hinterland. And with population and prosperity came poverty and the puritan ethic. Nonconformity prospered mightily, and accelerated education. In this book, the town's story unfolds, its people brought to life, its homes described, its events discovered in word and picture. Here is a fluent record of a significant town, rich in heritage and pleasing in prospect.’ Book - in Fine [much better than Very Good] bright green boards with gilt lettering.

	LE FANU MARK Cinema of Andrei Tarkovsky British Film Institute, U.K. 1987. First Edition, Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 156 pages, size 8.75 inches tall by 6 inches, including many stills/photographs, Index & Filmography. ' The death of Andrei Tarkovsky at the end of 1986 robbed the cinema of a major director, perhaps the most original & certainly the most controversial film-maker to emerge from the Soviet Union since the war. Tarkovsky's films are eloquently crafted, rich in imagery, & often as enigmatic as dreams. Autobiographical allusion, in films such as Ivan's Childhood & The Mirror, finds an equal place in his work with allegory & a sense of the permanence of history, as revealed in his epic biography of the icon painter Andrei Roublev & his extraordinary venture into science fiction, Solaris. Not for nothing was Tarkovsky called a poet of memory'. Mark Le Fanu's book is the first study of Tarkovsky in English. Illuminating many questions posed by Tarkovsky's densely textured cinema, it is an essential guide to this remarkable film artist .'

He has lived in North Africa for many years, and in this book he writes primarily of his life and experiences in Morocco and of some arduous journeys in the Sahara desert, as well as recounting his travels in other parts of the world - in Mexico, Turkey and Ceylon. As in his novels, Paul Bowles skilfully brings to life places and people. His intimate knowledge of Africa and the Arab mentality has enabled him to reveal facets of the customs which would not be discerned by the ordinary visitor. Among a variety of topics, he writes amusingly of the parrots he has owned, and of one Arab host who was so overwhelmingly hospitable that his guest was almost imprisoned within his palatial home; he describes a North African Moslem's contemptuous indignation when he encounters the lax attitude of the Turks towards their religion; and there is an account of a visit to the Rif mountains whilst recording Arab music." Book - Fine - slight spotting to rear free endpaper. Dust Jacket - SEE SCAN - Good - black jacket lettered in white, chips to corners and edges, small amount of loss to ends of spine, strenghtened to verso top and bottom. Shipped Weight: 750gms-1kgm.

	BALFOUR PATRICK Lords of the Equator : An African Journey National Book Association Hutchinson & Co, U.K. 1939. Hard Cover. Very Good/Good. 282 pages. Illustrated frontis. ' The question of Germany's lost colonies is a most important topic. Mr. Balfour, whose interest in Africa had already been stimulated by a journey across the Sahara and experiences as a war correspondent in Abyssinia, undertook a ten thousand-mile journey through Central Africa with the especial object of study ing the ex-German mandates. He saw three mandates at work under Britain, France, and Belgium respectively, and here sets forward for the first time the views of these countries themselves on the matter of their future. But this accounts only for one aspect of this witty and illuminating travel book. The reader covers the whole field of modern Africa in Mr. Balfour's lively and intelligent company, delighting in his shrewd and informative comments on everything and everyone he sees: the curious habits of native and European, the problems of administration, the beauties and incongruities of this continent which has been called dark and mysterious for too long. Mr. Balfour maintains that Central Africa is now accessible to the ordinary traveller (he crossed it himself by air, river, and rail, but chiefly by hopping from one native lorry to another), that it is no longer the haunt of explorers and adventurers but a rapidly developing country which must now be regarded as such. His book might have been called "Inside Africa." It will appeal not only to the lover of good entertainment and good writing but to the student of world aftairs who realises that Africa provides one of the greatest problems of the future '.

	BECKWITH, IAN Book Of Gainsborough Barracuda Books, UK, 1988. First Edition, Hardcover (Original Cloth). Fine (Far Better Than Very Good)/Fine. Size: 10.5 inches tall by 8 inches. 160 pages. ‘Both Romans and Britons tilled the soil round Gainas' Burh, but the Danes left an indelible mark on place and people's names in what had been a Saxon settlement, soon overtaken by Norman lords. A 'borough' with a market by charter, Gainsborough was dominated by its lordly landowners — men like Thomas Burgh and William Hickman. When civil war came, the Hickmans were doubtful in their allegiance, as was the town. First one side, then the other, seized the town. A medieval river port, Gainsborough's trade increased in the 17th century, and in 1841 was competing with Hull as a port with its own customs house. The prosperity of the period shaped the historic townscape, but soon after, the railways brought decline. The town itself grew slowly, first by infilling — the series of yards echoing the original toftsteads, or garden strips—and then through Palladian terraces and eventually New Town. Population exploded when machinery replaced men in the farming hinterland. And with population and prosperity came poverty and the puritan ethic. Nonconformity prospered mightily, and accelerated education. In this book, the town's story unfolds, its people brought to life, its homes described, its events discovered in word and picture. Here is a fluent record of a significant town, rich in heritage and pleasing in prospect.’ Book - in Fine [much better than Very Good] bright green boards with gilt lettering.

	LE FANU MARK Cinema of Andrei Tarkovsky British Film Institute, U.K. 1987. First Edition, Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 156 pages, size 8.75 inches tall by 6 inches, including many stills/photographs, Index & Filmography. ' The death of Andrei Tarkovsky at the end of 1986 robbed the cinema of a major director, perhaps the most original & certainly the most controversial film-maker to emerge from the Soviet Union since the war. Tarkovsky's films are eloquently crafted, rich in imagery, & often as enigmatic as dreams. Autobiographical allusion, in films such as Ivan's Childhood & The Mirror, finds an equal place in his work with allegory & a sense of the permanence of history, as revealed in his epic biography of the icon painter Andrei Roublev & his extraordinary venture into science fiction, Solaris. Not for nothing was Tarkovsky called a poet of memory'. Mark Le Fanu's book is the first study of Tarkovsky in English. Illuminating many questions posed by Tarkovsky's densely textured cinema, it is an essential guide to this remarkable film artist .'

	BOWLES PAUL Their Heads are Green Peter Owen, U.K. 1963. First Edition, Hard Cover. Fine [Better Than Very Good]/Good. 169 pages. Illustrated with black and white photographs. "Paul Bowles's novels and short stories are outstanding among post-war fiction. He has lived in North Africa for many years, and in this book he writes primarily of his life and experiences in Morocco and of some arduous journeys in the Sahara desert, as well as recounting his travels in other parts of the world - in Mexico, Turkey and Ceylon. As in his novels, Paul Bowles skilfully brings to life places and people. His intimate knowledge of Africa and the Arab mentality has enabled him to reveal facets of the customs which would not be discerned by the ordinary visitor. Among a variety of topics, he writes amusingly of the parrots he has owned, and of one Arab host who was so overwhelmingly hospitable that his guest was almost imprisoned within his palatial home; he describes a North African Moslem's contemptuous indignation when he encounters the lax attitude of the Turks towards their religion; and there is an account of a visit to the Rif mountains whilst recording Arab music."
