Original Boards. Condition: Very Good. No Dust Jacket. First Edition; First Edition. With maps and tables. Light wear to spine, covers & corners.; Hardback; Octavo (standard book size); x, 310 pages; France and PanamaThis book is a study of the brief but turbulent history of the New Panama Canal Company which replaced the bankrupt de Lesseps concern on the Isthmus in 1894. Unable to contemplate completion of the waterway because of a paucity of resources, the company+s agents and adherents were nevertheless instrumental in attracting the interest of the United States government which concluded a purchase of New Company assets in 1904. Though primarily a company history, the work examines the economic and political background against which the drama unfolded. The author was born in Peterhead, Scotland, and received his education at the universities of Aberdeen, Stockholm and Kent/Canterbury. He has published in the fields of both French history and film. Since 1967, he has been a member of the History Department of Brandon University, Brandon, Manitoba, Canada, where he currently holds the position of associate professor. .…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 211 pp. with index, bibliography and 16 B/W plates. Usual ex-library markings. 1/4" tear at outside edge of page 12. "How the Roman Catholic Church, through its agency, the National Legion of Decency, dominated the American film censorship scene in tandem with the Production Code Administration, is the subject of this book. The period covered includes the early 1930s through the late 1960s. It is a book that I felt needed writing because of the paucity of the material on the Legion. Amazingly, and despite its pivotal role in dictating the content of motion pictures for the best part of three decades, there exists only one full-length work on the subject. That is an unemendated doctoral thesis of barely forty-three thousand words by Paul W. Facey, S.J., dating from 1945 and therefore covering only the first eleven years of the Legion's existence, which is based almost entirely on published sources." - from the author's introduction.…
