Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, not price clipped (9s 6d), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy, looks almost unread. 164pp. Set in the South China Seas, a young boy permitted to go on a submarine on a training run, finds his vessel involved in an international incident. By Lieutenant Commander Alastair Campbell Gillespie Mars, DSO, DSC and Bar (1915-85), who was a Royal Navy World War II submarine commander. After the war Mars was posted in 1946 to HMS Dolphin but was eventually assigned to a post in New Zealand, where his pay of $39 per week as a lieutenant commander proved inadequate to support him, his wife and his two children. The Royal Navy spent four years arguing over an extra living allowance before it was paid. With a sick wife, he was then assigned to Hong Kong where he was unable to afford even the single hotel room he rented. Becoming ill himself and heavily in debt, he returned to the United Kingdom and hospital. On his discharge he requested leave to try to put his finances in order but this was refused. He was ordered to report to Portsmouth but he wrote from his home in London to the Navy refusing to do so and requesting his retirement. He commented in his letter that 'I do not wish to plague My Lords with a mass of detail mainly repugnant to them. It should be sufficient to say that I have lost faith in the present governmental hierarchy and all that goes with it'. Mars entered politics as a parliamentary candidate for the Liberal Party at the 1950 General Election. He contested the constituency of Windsor, but finished third. Mars was arrested and court martialled for insubordination and absence without leave, which resulted in his dismissal from the Navy in June 1952. The controversy over his dismissal was the subject of a parliamentary question the following month, when the future prime minister James Callaghan asked the then First Lord of the Admiralty whether Mars would receive his pension, which eventually he did, pursuing a subsequent career as a successful author. …

Contains 186 sepia-toned gelatin silver photographs measuring between 3" x 4" and 8" x 10", with captions in pencil. Good only album with worn edges, rubbing, and tears with very good or better photographs. A photo album following The Campbell family of Pennsylvania beginning in 1898 and continuing through 1905. The early pages show the family and their homelife in the suburbs of Philadelphia with images of Ridley Creek, the Delaware River, and their family home. A photo of a ship on the Delaware reads, "The Noble Delaware." One section shows a trip to the Philadelphia Zoo with images of a small child perched on a donkey. The family is also photographed vacationing at a New Jersey shore town. Later images show portraits of family and friends, and travel including a trip to New Orleans. A large section of the album features photographs related to the Spanish American War. The compiler's father, John Campbell, was one of the soldiers depicted and young children are seen visiting him at various camps. The photos show troops with the Second Regiment Infantry, National Guard of Pennsylvania stationed in Mount Gretna, Pennsylvania. One image shows a soldier on horseback with the caption, "Col. J.A.G. Campbell 1898"; another reads, "Col. Shenton, Col. T.E. Clyde, Lieut. Eyre, Mr. Randle, and Col. Campbell Mount Gretna, Pa 1898." A photo of men standing by a tented encampment reads, "drilling the 'rookies.'" A newspaper clipping discusses the duties of the "Second," reading, "While not at the front, the Second had an unusual responsible and at the time to the men onerous and irksome duty thrust upon them." It continues, "On account of the destruction of several large gunpowder plants through the connivance of friends and sympathizers of Spain, the National Government decided to place a very strong guard over all the large concerns of this character in the country that were working under contract and filling rush orders for the Army and Navy Departments." There are also images of troops at a camp in Penns Grove, New Jersey standing for morning inspection, in the mess tent, marching, at inspection, taking part in a peace parade, and breaking camp. One photo shows a group of men standing besides a tent with a caption labeling them as "prisoners," while another shows the camp from the Delaware River.
