Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression with full number line. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT DEDICATION, IN BLACK PEN, ON TITLE PAGE. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, top corners bruised, not price clipped (£18.99), no other inscr…iptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 258pp, illustrated. Pre war debutantes were members of the most protected, not to say isolated, stratum of 20th century society. The young unmarried daughters of the British upper classes. For most of them the war changed all that for ever. It meant independence and the shock of the new, and daily exposure to customs and attitudes that must have seemed completely alien to them and probably did them a great deal of good. This book records, in their own voices where possible, the extraordinary diversity of challenges, shocks and responsibilities they faced, including the late Queen, as chauffeurs, couriers, ambulance drivers, nurses, pilots, spies, decoders, factory workers, farmers, land girls, as well as in the Women's Services. How much did class barriers really come down? Did they stick with their own sort? And what about fun and love in wartime, did love cross the class barriers? Very scarce signed.

The chapter sub-headings are from the original lyrics to the tunes played by the chimes of the grandfather clock on the staircase at Hovingham Hall. SYNOPSIS: In this detailed biographical study of the Duchess of Kent, the former Miss Katharine Worsley, Helen Cathcart tells an enchanting story with romantic zest and unique authority. Katharine Worsley was born during a snowstorm and spent her wartime childhood as the daughter of a Yorkshire soldier squire. New information from close relations and friends gives us a picture of the girl who went to school in a palace and forged a strange link with the Queen Mother in the hinterland of royal Norfolk. We follow her to Oxford and discover the Cinderella touch in her personal story when she worked in an orphanage. We also learn how she once worked in a Toronto store and undertook a long-distance journey from Canada to Mexico City by Greyhound coach. However, it is the intimate family story of her first meeting with the Duke of Kent and of the affectionate friendship that matured in this royal romance that truly catches the imagination of the reader. We then follow the Duchess from Hovingham Hall and Coppins to Hong Kong and Germany as an Army officer's wife. We discover the deep veins of community service in her family, and the author revealingly probes the sources of the young Duchess of Kent's wide popularity. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Contact seller5-star seller[South America] Gaucho photograph archive documenting cattle work, horsemanship, domestic life, and rural identity in Argentina Chile and Uruguay in the mid twentieth century, with direct evidence of how the older nomadic gaucho tradition had been absorbed into organized ranch labor and national folklore on the pampas. The photo…graphs were taken by and Credited on verso to photojournalist Paul Almásy and distributed through Camera Press, London, The gaucho identity is deeply rooted in their historical role as nomadic horsemen and cattle herders across the South American Pampas, particularly in Argentina and Uruguay. This identity embodies values such as independence, courage, solidarity, and a profound connection to the land. The accompanying one page typed essay, titled The Gaucho Lives On in a Changing World, states that the "old style gaucho" had passed into history while gauchos remained active in Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile, now adjusted to a "more closely organised society," making the archive a concise press constructed account of rural modernization as seen through livestock handling, food preparation, costume, and family life. Archive consists of 22 images, including: 18 Large original silver gelatin press photographs and 3 real photo postcards, and a captioned photo sheet from the original professional photographer explaining the images. The 18 large photographs are approximately 8 x 10 inches. The photographs show gauchos driving cattle across open pasture, working herds inside fenced enclosures, throwing rope among livestock, and managing horses at close range, including one strong action image of men restraining a rearing horse and another of a mounted rider chasing cattle across grassland. Interior scenes broaden the file beyond ranch labor alone: one image shows men seated around an open fire roasting meat for asado, another shows two men from behind on a bench with wide belts and sheathed knives visible at the waist, and another records a family at table in a modest domestic interior with checked cloth, oil lamp, crockery, and cupboard. Costume and self presentation are treated as a parallel theme through a formal portrait of a man in broad hat, neckerchief, decorated belt, and draped textile, a close view of an elaborate silver buckled belt, and a separate photograph of silver horse tack identified on the verso as the kind found throughout South America. Versos carry typed caption slips headed The Gaucho Lives On in a Changing World, repeated Camera Press copyright stamps from Russell Court, Coram Street, London, and additional agency stamps, while the 3 postcards bear printed captions including Argentine Gaucho with Guitar and Gaucho, Argentina. The three Argentine real photo postcards extend the archive backward into an earlier visual phase of gaucho representation, predating the Paul Almásy and Camera Press photographs and preserving a more localized Argentine picture of gaucho dress, horsemanship, and musical performance and as such presenting the shift from national popular iconography to documentary coverage of gaucho labor, domestic life, and modernization. By the twentieth century, the gaucho had already become both a laboring figure within fenced, export driven cattle production and a powerful emblem in Argentine and Uruguayan national culture, a dual status visible here in the movement between working scenes, posed costume studies, and folkloric postcard imagery. Almásy's standing as a widely traveled European photojournalist active from the 1930s onward adds another layer, since the archive also preserves how international press agencies translated South American rural life for metropolitan picture circulation after Camera Press's 1947 founding. Light corner wear, minor creasing, scattered surface abrasions, editorial stamps and pasted caption strips to versos, typed essay sheet fold worn with small tears and losses; overall good condition. Strong material for Latin American studies, labor history, rural modernity, and the international press imaging of regional identity.

Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Good. A set of 6 b/w photos from Camera Press's "Heads of the Arabian American Oil Company" series. Each approx 12x17cm with printed caption label and ink stamp to the verso. The conditions are good or better, with some corner creasing, minor scuffing at the edges, and a couple of short closed tears. The p…hotographers are not named. They are undated but circa mid-1950s, when Aramco was moving its HQ from the US to Saudi Arabia. This was at the insistence of Ibn Saud, who'd said "Every time there's a decision to be made you have to refer it to New York. In the future let's refer it here" (Time, 24 Mar 1952). The subjects are: 1) J.T. Duce, VP in charge of Government Relations; 2) William A. Eddy, Middle East Consultant; 3) R.A. Eeds, VP in charge of Industrial Relations; 4) Norman Hardy, Executive VP; 5) R.L. Keyes, President; and 6) F.W. Ohliger, VP in charge of Concession Affairs". JAMES TERRY DUCE (d 1965) position was considered "an extremely sensitive liaison post between the business of the company and the government of the country. (He) impressed upon others the significance of cross-cultural education for Arabia-bound American employees and their families". He also helped forge relations with the CIA, before which Aramco had "drawn liberally" on former OSS staff for its relations work (Al Rasheed and Vitalis, 2004; Aramco 1999). BILL EDDY (1896-1962) became the US Navy and OSS' Special Assistant to the American Minister in 1943, to build relations with Saudi Arabia and its neighbours. He became Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Saudi in 1944-6, trusted by both Ibn Saud and FDR to translate for them during their famous meeting aboard the USS Quincy in 1945. After a stint in Yemen, he worked for the CIA in 1946, Aramco in 1947, Tapline in 1952, and helped maintain stable Aramco-Saudi relations. He retired in 1956 (Aramco 1962). RA EEDS, a "roughneck, driller, and engineer" came to Saudi in 1950, became General Manager Operations in 1952, VP in 1955, and Director in 1958-9 (Aramco 1959:1). NORMAN HARDY was Aramco's Executive VP (May 1956-9), President (1958-9), CEO (1959-61), and Chair (1959-68). He "helped bring Aramco into the corporate big leagues", strengthened budgetary controls, and established its Management Committee. He "had learned Malay, was determined to learn Arabic. Long before his retirement in 1960 he had initiated the practice of addressing Aramco employees over the company's television station in Arabic" (Aramco 1984; Saudi Aramco 2006: 148). BOB KEYES was President from 1952 until retirement in 1957 when Hardy took over. FLOYD OHLIGER (d 1993) was there at the outset when he "waded ashore" at al-Hasa. He worked with Ibn Saud in 1952, moving Aramco's corporate offices from New York to Dhahran, and interceded with him for Catholics to practice their religion. He retired in 1958 (Anderson, 1981: 110; Saudi Aramco, 1984: 20-33).
