Woodstock [N.Y.] : Overlook Press, 2000. Hardcover with orig. dustjacket, 513pp., 23.5x16cm., very good copy (some minor traces of use on dj.). ISBN 9781585670758. Behind the astonishing success of D-Day was the most sophisticated deception scheme ever devised. The objective was to persuade the enemy that the long-awaited landings would take place in the Pas-de-Calais, and that any attack in Normandy would be nothing more than a diversionary feint that could be safely ignored. Hundreds of bogus agent reports were manufactured, an entire US Army Group was invented, false radio signals transmitted, and inflatable tanks, dummy bombers built of balsa wood and canvas landing craft were positioned where they could be photographed by the Luftwaffe. Each itemed an imminent amphibious assault from Dover, across the shortest stretch of the English Channel. Operation Fortitude was an extraordinary success. In this volume, the classified official history of the entire operation, written by Roger Hesketh as head of the team of D-Day deception specialists, has been declassified and released.

Book
8°. 23 pp. with illustrations, printed in yellow and red, original blue wrappers with lettering; stapled (wrappers slightly stained and dusty with a small loss of paper in one corner inside in a good, clean condition). Observation of the New Problem of Mathematical Geography, i.e. the Science of the Earth's Sphere. Astronomy / American Scientist in Beirut: This rare book on the length of the day in various parts of the Earth, accompanied with charming illustrations, printed in colour, was issued in Arabic language by the Jesuit Press in Beirut, the capital of the Ottoman vilayet of Syria. The author was Muhammad Kamal al-Tarabulsi (1830-1897), a Muslim scholar, born in Zawiya, Libya. He was schooled in Tripoli and later in Al-Azhar Mosque in Cairo, specializing in Islamic law. The letter of the introduction (title page verso) was written by an American scholar Robert Haldane West (1862-1906), who arrived to Beirut in 1883, aged 21. He eventually became a professor of astronomy and mathematics, director of the Lee Observatory, principal of the Preparatory Department and finally dean of the School of Arts and Sciences. The West Hall at the American University in Beirut is named after him. (Lynn Mahoney, History of West Hall). The book is very rare. We could not find any institutional examples in Worldcat.
