Chinese Art And Culture.
1961. Hardcover with dustjacket and protective mylar covering. Reading copy. A study of four thousand years of Chinese civilization, remarkable for its clear and coherent interpretation of this complex subject. Though it deals primarily with Chinese art, elating its evolution to its cultural setting, it also discusses the philosophies and religions that influenced the artistic works of the Neolithic, Shang and Chou periods, the art of the Han, the Six Dynasties, and the T'ang, Sung, Yuan, Ming and Ch'ing. Includes an Index.Translated into Englisf from the French by Haakon Chevalier.

GROUSSET, RENE; CHARANIS, PETER (FOREWORD).
The Empire Of The Steppes: A History Of Central Asia.
Rutgers University Press, New Brunswick: 1970. Hardcover with dustjacket. Reading copy. While the early history of the steppe nomads is shrouded in obscurity, this obscurity lifts somewhat after their contact with cultures possessing written histories. But even when information about them becomes relatively more plentiful, linguistic ocmplexities makes its interpretation extremely difficult. Thus while the number of specialized studies devoted to them is impressive, general works embracing the many disciplines involved, or syntheses on a grand scale encompassing the sprawlinig history of the these peoples, are exceedingly scarce. Among these very few, The Empire of the Steppes is outstanding. The aim of this first English-language edition has been to make available a major work useful to the general reader as well as to the specialist, above all an edition which retrains the majestic sweep and grandeur, as well as the overriding intellectual grasp of Grousset's original. Translated into English from the French by Naomi Walford. Includes an Index.

GROUSSET, RENE.
The Epic Of The Crusades.
Orion, New York: 1970. Hardcover with dustjacket. Reading copy. Recreates the history of the nine crusades between 1096 and 1270, and to the two traditional explanations of these extraordinary adventures - the desire to free Jesus' tomb in Jerusalem and the Voltairian explanation of the Crusades as a vast expedition of pillage - the author adds a third. Presents the thesis that the Crusades was a well planned political operation by the Papacy which wanted to make of Palestine a second domain of Saint Peter in order to become at the same time master of Rome and of Jerusalem. Includes an Index. Translated into English from the French by Noel Lindsay.
