Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. This copy has a tipped in sheet signed by every commanding officer from 1957-2010. Light shelf wear to the jacket only. The long-awaited history book of the 3rd Battalion, Auckland (Countess of Ranfurly's Own) & Northland and all of its predecessors is now available. It is the first detailed history of the 'Aucks' and the 'Norths' (also incorporating the Cadet Units) from the formation of the first militia units in the 1840s all the way to the 3rd Auck (CRO) & North Battalion Group of the early 21st century. 'Auckland Infantry' is 576 pages long (16 of which are in colour) and includes just over 640 photos, diagrams and graphics. It covers the period from the first of the Auckland Infantry units formed in 1845, shortly thereafter into active service with the Units first casualty being Private William Reily at the Battle of Ohaewai on 1st July 1845. The latter part of the 19th Century saw the formation of the 3rd Aucklands' and 15th North Aucklands' then service in the South African War, WW1 from Gallipoli to the western front in France and Belgium. World War II saw the Aucks and North Aucks as the 'numbered' Battalions (18th, 21st, 24th, 29th and 35th) in Greece, Crete, North Africa, Italy and the Pacific, through the CMT and National Service eras to the Territorial Force Volunteer of today. This is a must read (and have) for anyone with an interest in the history of the 'Aucks'' and the 'Norths' in war and peace. 2.6kg for outside NZ. Signed by Author(s).

illustrated with various photos and illustrations by John Blau, Guntis Kupers, Michael Padgett, Jerry Armstrong (Cover Design), and Steve Sack (illustrator). First Edition. Perhaps inspired by the Boston Women's Health Collective's "Women and Their Bodies" (published later as "Our Bodies, Ourselves") this seems to be meant as a companion piece of sorts by the Minneapolis based M.S.R.B. Press. Signed by one of the project coordinators (Peter Blau), this also features some early Steve Sack cartoons. From the introduction: "The Men's Survival Resource Book is a book by, for and about men. It represents the collective effort of 56 writers (primarily from the Mpls./St. Paul area) who desired to share their experiences and expertise regarding issues that touch the lives of men. The Men's Survival Resource Book is an attempt to bring new light and life to our lives. It seeks to call attention to ourselves and to raise questions about the male condition in 20th century society. Further, the book is affirming and permission-giving in that it will help you remove some of the role limitations that have traditionally defined maleness and presents, we think, some new directions for men." Very Good. A light cup ring on the front cover, some tanning, and previous owners name to the title page. Small 4to. (8.25" x 10.75") in pictorial wraps.

For many years, he worked extensively with Indian-born film producer Ismail Merchant, his domestic as well as professional partner, and with screenwriter Ruth Prawer Jhabvala. All three were principals in Merchant Ivory Productions, whose films have won seven Academy Awards; Ivory himself has been nominated for four Oscars, winning one. Ivory's directorial work includes A Room with a View (1985), Maurice (1987), Howards End (1992), and The Remains of the Day (1993). For his work on Call Me by Your Name (2017), which he wrote and produced, Ivory won awards for Best Adapted Screenplay from the Academy Awards, British Academy of Film and Television Arts, Writers Guild of America, the Critics' Choice Awards, and the Scripter Awards, among others. Upon winning the Oscar and BAFTA at the age of 89, Ivory became the oldest-ever winner in any category for both awards. Ruth Prawer Jhabvala CBE (7 May 1927 - 3 April 2013) was a German-born British and American Booker prize-winning novelist, short story writer and two-time Academy Award-winning screenwriter. She is perhaps best known for her long collaboration with Merchant Ivory Productions, made up of director James Ivory and producer Ismail Merchant. After meeting Cyrus Jhabvala in England, she married him and moved to India in 1951; Jhabvala was an Indian-Parsi architect. The couple lived in New Delhi and had three daughters. Jhabvala began then to elaborate her experiences in India and wrote novels and tales on Indian subjects. She wrote a dozen novels, 23 screenplays, and eight collections of short stories and was made a CBE in 1998 and granted a joint fellowship by BAFTA in 2002 with Ivory and Merchant. She is the only person to have won both a Booker Prize and an Oscar. John Swope (August 23, 1908 - May 11, 1979) was a photographer for Life, and a commercial pilot who trained United States Army Air Force pilots during World War II. His interest in photography began when he brought a camera to a yacht race from Los Angeles to Hawaii in 1936. Together with Leland Hayward and John H. Connelly, he co-founded Southwest Airways (no connection to the present day Southwest Airlines), a company that developed the Thunderbird Fields, which trained thousands of military pilots during the Second World War. He was married to actress Dorothy McGuire in 1943 until his death on May 11, 1979. This book is a film maker's response in print and not on celluloid to what is called Royal India--land of Maharajas. It contains the overflow from the author's films in which Royal India appears. It is a collection of photographs, anecdotes, and other items which the author believes are worth saving. When India became independent in 1947, the princeses were guaranteed their titles, properties, and certain privileges. But more and more their special status came to be seen as an anachronism, and it has now been legally abolished. For the princes, it was like the French Revolution, except that none of them went to the guillotine; they merely became private citizens. Many of these former rulers are still doing very well.
