Paperback. Condition: Good. Pity the Nation ranks among the classic accounts of war in our time, both as historical document and as an eyewitness testament to human savagery. Written by one of Britain's foremost journalists, this remarkable book combines political analysis and war reporting in an unprecedented way: it is an epic account of the Lebanon conflict by an author who has personally witnessed the carnage of Beirut for over a decade. Fisk's book recounts the details of a terrible war but it also tells a story of betrayal and illusion, of Western blindness that had led inevitably to political and military catastrophe. Updated and revised, Fisk's book gives us a further insight into this troubled part of the world. 'Robert Fisk is one of the outstanding reporters of this generation. As a war correpondent he is unrivalled.' Edward Mortimer, Financial Times. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

The last eight leaves only of a printed catalogue (no. 260 in M. V. de Chantilly's 'Robert Harding Evans of Pall Mall | auction catalogues 1812-1846 | a provisional list' (2002)). Stitched and unbound. On aged and worn paper, with slight damp staining to margins. Paginated 23-37 + [1], with the final page (i.e. the verso of the last leaf) carrying the advertisement: 'Preparing for Sale by MR. EVANS. | THE VALUABLE LIBRARY of an | EMINENT COLLECTOR.' (in manuscript: 'Mr Rennie'). Slug at foot of p.37: 'London: Printed by W. Nicol, | Cleveland-row, St. James's.' First page headed in Phillipps's hand: 'Ord MSS. Catalogue', with 'Sir T Phillipps sale' in another hand in pencil at the foot of the page. P.23 begins with lot 469 and the final lot of the sale, on p.37, is 618. After lot 510 on p.24 is the heading 'MANUSCRIPTS, VARIOUS SIZES'. All the lots are priced in manuscript, and the manuscripts in the sale (lots 511-618) are also named, in another hand than Phillipps's. Phillipps has written 'P' beside each of the lots which he acquired, and he reveals himself to be purchaser of 86 of the 109 (including 108*) manuscript lots in the sale, at an enormous total cost of £1983 16s 0d. These purchases were all made indirectly: most of the lots are recorded (in the second hand) as having been bought by four London booksellers: Cochran, Thorpe, Payne (of Payne and Foss), and Rodd. The British Museum ('The Museum') is given as purchaser of lots 535 and 561 ('Registrum de Bury (Tempore Edwarde III.) on vellum', £126 0s 0d). The purchaser of lot 524 is 'Duke of Norfolk', and lot 655 is said to have been bought 'By the Family who now possess the estate'. Beside this last note Phillipps has written 'bought | March Phillipps'. Phillipps has written 'query' beside lot 526.

Vol. I. (.II.) Oktav. (I:) XV, 488 S.; (II:) XVI, 466 S. 2 zeitgenössische, hellbraune Kalbslederbände mit fünf erhabenen Bünden. P.5000. n Ancient Greece, bankruptcy did not exist. If a man owed and he could not pay, he and his wife, children or servants were forced into "debt slavery" until the creditor recouped losses through their physical labour. Many city-states in ancient Greece limited debt slavery to a period of five years; debt slaves had protection of life and limb, which regular slaves did not have. However, servants of the debtor could be retained beyond that deadline by the creditor and were often forced to serve their new lord for a lifetime, usually under significantly harsher conditions. An exception to this rule was Athens, which by the laws of Solon forbade enslavement for debt; as a consequence, most Athenian slaves were foreigners (Greek or otherwise). The Statute of Bankrupts of 1542 was the first statute under English law dealing with bankruptcy or insolvency.[3] Bankruptcy is also documented in East Asia. According to al-Maqrizi, the Yassa of Genghis Khan contained a provision that mandated the death penalty for anyone who became bankrupt three times. A failure of a nation to meet bond repayments has been seen on many occasions. In a similar way, Philip II of Spain had to declare four state bankruptcies in 1557, 1560, 1575 and 1596. According to Kenneth S. Rogoff, "Although the development of international capital markets was quite limited prior to 1800, we nevertheless catalog the various defaults of France, Portugal, Prussia, Spain, and the early Italian city-states. At the edge of Europe, Egypt, Russia, and Turkey have histories of chronic default as well."[4] The principal focus of modern insolvency legislation and business debt restructuring practices no longer rests on the elimination of insolvent entities, but on the remodeling of the financial and organizational structure of debtors experiencing financial distress so as to permit the rehabilitation and continuation of the business.
