Hardcover. Condition: Very good. First U.S. Edition. 128 pages. Oversized book, measuring 12 inches by 10 inches. Topics covered include Introduction, the American Revolution, the French Revolution, Chronological Charts, Further Reading List, Acknowledgments, and Index. Esmond Wright (5 November 1915, Newcastle upon Tyne - 9 August 2003, Masham, North Yorkshire) was an English historian of the United States, Director of the Institute of United States Studies at the University of London from 1971 to 1983, a television personality, author, and a Conservative politician. He was awarded the Benjamin Franklin Medal in 1988. There is good reason to treat the American and the French revolutions together. Although it is true that France and the Thirteen Colonies were in many respects very different, yet events in the two countries formed part of a larger whole. It was French support that enabled the Americans to win a clear decision in their war of independence. But in thus helping to dismember the British Empire, the French monarchy was only briefly to enjoy its moment of revenge. The expense of the American war turned France's chronic deficits into financial paralysis, and brought about a breakdown of the social order. The example of rebellion in America led directly to the French Revolution.

1st ed. Hardback quarto, no jacket as issued, pictorial cover, very good condition, figures, tables, top edge little foxed (minimal front free flyleaf), minor edgewear, owner's written name. 187 pp. J. B. Wright and three colleagues provide the first comprehensive report on the geology and mineral resources of West Africa. This includes the Precambrian metamorphic basement, the stratigraphic complexities of the sedimentary basins, and the widespread Cenozoic magmatic rocks. The considerable mineral wealth of the region is related to the specific geological setting. This book should have wider than just local interest: the large-scale features of the region are common to the whole African continent. The lead author has long worked in Kenya (Geological Survey) and at a university in Nigeria. (Written name of Eric Middlemost, former academic geologist, University of Sydney.).

Original Printed Wrappers. Condition: Very Good. Walter Huber, Fred Herz, T.J. Hellman, Inez Mexia, William E. Colby, Joseph Dixon, H.P. Rankin, Frank H. Lewis, Philip S. Carlton, William H. Wright, Lee L. Stopple, Quong Jue, R.L. van Oosting (illustrator). First Edition. San Francisco: Sierra Club, 1925. First Edition. Vol XII, No. 2, for 1925. This was published during a several-year time period when the Sierra Club did not stipulate the month of an issue, just the volume, the number, and the year- monthly designations for such an infrequent publication having always been somewhat unnecessary in any case. Original printed wrappers, 9 1/4" x 6 1/4", 102 pp. + unpaginated photographic plates, features and ads, including a plate fold-out with two panoramic wide angles, from Mount Hamilton, by William H. Wright. Very Good plus, really quite close to near fine; the major flaw being the common one that circuit binding (yapp binding) was used, in which cover edges were intentionally extended out beyond page edges, but over time the extended part becomes pressed inward somewhat (see scan). One notable rear-cover chip at top, about 1" x 1.5". Otherwise, just occasional very small points of cover wear. A very handsome copy. See scans. Binding sturdy, contents fine. See scan of contents page for the lineup of stellar club writers and their always engaging and adventurous topics. In addition to the graphics mentioned above, this issue is chock full of photographic plates by the club's best photographers, as well as others. In addition to a serious passel of photos by Walter Huber and Fred Herz, there are photo contributions by T.J. Hellman, Inez Mexia, William E. Colby, Joseph Dixon, H.P. Rankin, Frank H. Lewis, Philip S. Carlton, William H. Wright, Lee L. Stopple, Quong Jue, R.L. van Oosting, and several uncredited. SC2.
