Cambridge, Cambridge University Press. 1991 Softcover, x+406pp., 15.5x22.5cm., in very good condition. ISBN 9780521385916. In recent years historians of China have focused increased attention on the critical decades of National rule on the mainland. This recent scholarship has substantially modified our understanding of the political events of this momentous period, shedding light on the character of Nationalist rule and on the sources of the Communist victory in 1949. Yet no existing textbook on modern China presents the events of the period according to these new findings. The five essays in this volume were written by leading authorities on the period, and they synthesize the new research. Drawn from Volume 13 of The Cambridge History of China, they represent the most complete and stimulating political history of the period available in the literature. The essays selected deal with Nationalist rule during the Nanking decade, the Communist movement from 1927 to 1937, Nationalist rule during the Sino-Japanese War, the Communist movement during the Sino-Japanese war, and the Kuomintang-Communist struggle from 1945 to 1949.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Baltimore, tall octavo (10 by 7 inches), variously paged, hundreds of plates and text figures. ***CONTENT: The small State of Maryland is nonetheless noteworthy for its diversity of landscapes: from west to east, the folded Appalachians, the Piedmont Plateau, and the broad Coastal Plain. These volumes document the 19th century history of geological investigations, the physical features and geomorphology of the State, its geological formations, mineral resources, and paleontology. Maryland rock formations range in age from Precambrian to Pleistocene, and produce a noteworthy assortment and diversity of fossils: stromatolites, sponges, corals, trilobites and other arthropods, crinoids, brachiopods, mollusks, fishes, dinosaur remains, shark teeth, whale bones, mammoth and mastodon skeletons, and more. Volumes in this set include: VOLUME ONE (1897), with 539 p. and 17 plates; CAMBRIAN-ORDOVICIAN (1919), with 424 p. and 58 plates; SILURIAN (1923), with 794 p. and 67 plates; DEVONIAN (IN THREE VOLUMES) (1913), with 1436 p. and 171 plates; LOWER CRETACEOUS (1911), with 622 p. and 97 plates; UPPER CRETACEOUS (IN TWO VOLUMES) (1916), with 1022 p. and 90 plates; EOCENE (1901), with 331 p. and 64 plates; MIOCENE (IN TWO VOLUMES) (1904), with 670 p. and 135 plates; and PLIOCENE AND PLEISTOCENE (1906), with 292 p. and 75 plates. The authors that made contributions to these volumes reads like a list of early 20th century "who's who" of the country's most notable geologists and paleontologists. ***CONDITION: These volumes are in VERY GOOD+ TO FINE condition, uniformly bound in the original ribbed green cloth, with gilt lettering on the front covers and backstrips. The covers are well preserved, with only a trace of rubbing to the extremities. All outer joints are solid, as are most inner hinges; the bindings are firm. The text pages and illustrations are near pristine: fresh, clean and bright, with no foxing or dampstains. Most volumes are NOT ex-library, but have former owner's signatures on the front endpapers. Four volumes are signed by Marshall Kay (1904-1975), the celebrated Columbia University geologist. Save for one volume, no external ownership markings. This is a very handsome set of highly informative, profusely illustrated volumes. Domestic and international shipping will be extra, but only at my cost.

A nicely preserved small grouping of printed souvenirs documenting the expansion of Hawaiian tourism in the 1920s, largely sponsored by the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, as well as the Los Angeles Steamship Company. By 1928, Hawaii, and the city of Honolulu were seeing approximately 20,000 tourist visitors a year, and the Royal Hawaiian Hotel was also encouraging increased tourism, and use of their beaches on Waikiki, as well as tourist visitors to other islands. The Hawaii Tourist Bureau, successor to the Hawaii Promotion Bureau sponsored a beautification project in Honolulu, encouraged development along Waikiki Beach, development of gold courses, expansion of ocean liner piers, and much more to drive tourism. The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce and the Los Angeles Steamship company were heavily involved in these efforts, often by recruiting the Who's Who of southern California, including the Bullock's, Eastman's, Jungmeyer's, MacDonald's, and others, such as Hilario Moncado, editor and publisher of Filipino Nation. The Hawaii Trade Bulletin is quite scarce and details the big island of Hawaii, with descriptions of Hilo, Hamakua, Kohala, Kona, Hawaii National Park and Puna, with business listings, map, and mentions of Kona coffee. Shipboard activities onboard the S.S. City of Honolulu included a bridge tournament, shuffleboard, tennis, and masquerade ball. The dinner menu listed nuts, caviar, sardines, Columbia River Salmon, sea food patties, and Hawaiian Salad.
