Hardcover. Condition: Poor. No Jacket. Aerial photographs by the 11th Air Force. Battle photographs by the U.S. Army Signal Corps. Terrain feature photographs by Captain Drummond, "assisted by Private First Class A. E. Johnson, 50th Engineer Regiment. (illustrator). 1st Edition. A collection of short accounts by the officers and men of all ranks who fought on Attu, the westernmost island of the Aleutians. This string of islands, "acquired by the United States in 1867 as part of the Alaska Purchase," extended some one thousand miles west from the mainland of Alaska. Only about 600 miles from Siberia and about 650 miles from a Japanese base in the Kurile Islands, Attu had a grand total in population some 45 native Aleuts and two mainland Americans. The climate here was described as unpleasant: Engulfed in fog most of the time, which could usually not be dispersed by the frequent high winds. The terrain here was described as a nasty combination of "steep, jagged crags, knifelike ridges," and "boggy tundra." All of these elements together arguing against the use of aircraft and vehicles. To top off all of that physical description, "One writer has called Attu 'the lonesomest spot this side of hell.'" As if all of the foregoing were not enough, American forces were faced off against the tough and experienced Japanese in armed combat. This little book testifies to the valor of all of these men.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Original silver illustrated red cloth in matching jacket 22x31cm. (8), 97pp, illustrated with colour maps and photos throughout, with royal portraits, and introductory texts by King Fahd, Minister of Communications Hussain Mansouri, and Deputy Minister for Transport Affairs Ahamd Husuf Al-Turki. Book fine, jacket very good, lightly rubbed. The Ministry of Communications is one of the oldest public agencies in the country, established with the founding of the Kingdom, and key to meeting its development goals. This work celebrates the completion of a modern highway network in a short time, covering all regions: "It included the construction of many long highways, bridges and tunnels passing through very rugged and difficult terrain" (opening statement by King Fahd). It also presents a wider survey covering the role of transport in promoting national development, and the Ministry. A section on land transport describes the Saudi Railroad Organisation (its history, future plans and Customs Railway Station in Riyadh), and the Saudi Public Transport Company SAPTCO (public need, past and present services, transport for pilgrims, future plans, the fleet, bus shelters). A section on marine transport addresses achievements, staff training, future projects etc. Finally, roads are presented in historic perspective, with a description of their current status, features, development plans, classification, maintenance, Saudi engineers and contractors, examples, Hajj roads, expressways, descents, ring roads, agricultural roads, and the national road construction industry. This shows rapid development. The number of buses laid on for Hajjis for example, increased from 647 for 5 million pilgrims in 1980, to 989 for 9.4 million in 1981 alone. In Mecca, construction of the Internal Ring Road, Middle Ring Road, Ajyad-Kudi Underpath, and the Makkah-Alkar Vast Road bypassing the sacred Mash'air area were either completed or well advanced. The maps show networks and routes and their development over time. The photos show landscapes and cityscapes, infrastructure, vehicles, and people using them. Scarce.
