Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed exploration of Bulgaria, a nation of captivating geographical diversity and a rich tapestry of historical events. From the majestic Balkan Mountains that form its northern frontier to the sun-kissed shores of the Black Sea coast, the author paints a vivid pi…cture of the country's landscapes, its bustling cities, and its tranquil villages. The book delves into the intricate geology that has shaped Bulgaria's terrain, from the limestone caves of Deli Orman to the volcanic peaks of the Rila Mountains. It traces the nation's history, from its ancient Thracian roots through its time as a Roman province, its occupation by the Ottoman Empire, and its eventual emergence as an independent state. The author also examines Bulgaria's cultural heritage, exploring its traditional crafts, folklore, and the many ethnic groups that have contributed to its unique identity. This book is an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities and allure of Bulgaria, a land of stunning beauty, fascinating history, and vibrant culture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. The confidential first edition dated March 1919, prepared for the British Delegation to the Paris Peace Conference (a second declassified edition made available to the public without the map appeared in 1920, retitled "Tanganyika (German East Africa)" and renumbered No. 113). Origin…al grey printed card wraps 14x22cm. vi, 117pp, complete with the colour folding map in a back pocket. Very good, lightly bumped and creased to the corners, tanned to the spine, blue crayon number to the front. Map spotted, neatly folded with short closed fold tears. Chapters describe physical and human geography, political history (starting with Portuguese influence through to Arab rule, British and German interests, and native opposition), social and political conditions, and economy, with Treaty extracts in the Appendices. No authors are indicated, but it was a collective effort, with the series edited by George Walter Prothero, Director of the Historical Section, which had been established purposely by the Foreign Office. Histories were voluntarily contributed by experts, geography by Naval Intelligence Division staff, and economics by the Foreign Office War Trade Intelligence Department. The map is by the Geographical Section General Staff of the War Office: "General Map of German East Africa", GSGS No. 2814, War Office, July 1916. 80x78cm, 1/2M, bounded by Lake Victoria (N), the Swahili coast from Lamu to Pekavi with Zanzibar about midway (E), the border with Portuguese East Africa (S), and Lake Tanganyika (W). Features include railways, roads (mostly fit for light wheeled traffic), important tracks and routes, marshes, mission stations, and international boundaries. This edition appears to be very rare, with Worldcat and Library Hub locating copies at the British Museum and British Library only (OCLC 558925343).

M. Stationery Office at head of title-page.Scarce first edi…tion of this top-secret handbook, a treasure trove of well-researched information on all aspects of the country, compiled by the anonymous spy-masters of the British Empire (probably with information provided by Meinertzhagen, among others). This book contains a very detailed and comprehensive survey of all that was known at the time about the topography, peoples, administration, military forces, colonial influences, customs, climate, religions, railways, transport, agriculture, natural resources, and industry of Abyssinia in 1917. Among the appendices is a useful bibliography, rating books for good cartographic material and 'first-rate importance'. This is followed by an assessment of the strength, armament and tactics of the Abyssinian Imperial Army, partly based on observations made during the civil war of October 1916. At the end of the volume is an over 170-pages long introduction to the local languages with parallel vocabularies and phrases in in English, Amharic, Tigrinya, Galla and Somali. In 1922 appeared a second volume which is even rarer.

Interior exceptionally clean and fresh. 723 pp.…Naval Staff Intelligence Department, June, A scarce wartime handbook on Greater Syria, therefore covering present-day Syria, Lebanon and Palestine. Prepared by the Naval Staff Intelligence Department it includes an impressive range of information on everything from Military History to Agriculture. This copy, as with others we have seen, does not include the fourteen pages of illustrations apparently found in some examples. The note at the start of the handbook states it was something of a work in progress, originally intended as a two-volume publication (with a second vol. dedicated to 'Routes and Communications'), but stalled due to "the occupation of the country and the signing of the Armistice" (p.[5]). Scarce. LibraryHub locates five examples in the UK, at the University of Birmingham, BL, KCL, Oxford and UCL. OCLC adds no further examples, with no holding libraries in North America.
