London and New York: John Lane, The Bodley Head; Dodd, Mead & Co., 1930. Large paper.. hard cover. Very Good. Quarto (26cm); xviii, 65 pages, [16] leaves of plates. Bound in original red cloth stamped in blind with Aubrey Beardsley poppy design . Original dust jacket, with the same design in red on a tan ground. Dust jacket mildly frayed at spine ends, corners and top edge, with a closed tear on the upper panel repaired with cello tape and a closed tear on the lower panel without intervention, yet unusually sound and entire. Cloth about fine. Scattered light foxing in text. The last of the John Lane "Bodley Head" editions of the classic collaboration between Aubrey Beardsley and Oscar Wilde. Lane was the first English publisher of the work in 1894, but it was dropped after the 1930 edition as Allen Lane (John's nephew) transformed the houseinto the more mainstream Penguin Books. This is the large paper quarto version (the book also appeared in a smaller octavo format). Despite the detailed list of defects, this is an unusually well-preserved copy.

Description
Harrisburg, PA. (1942): The Military Service Publishing, 1942. 458p. The first (and last) issue which deals with the attack on Pearl Harbor but on page. 192 both the caputre of Guam and Wake Island are noted, though the Bataan Peninsula fell in April and the fortress at Corregidor surrendered in may 1942. Although tanks are recognized as essential, the book still defends the Cavalry without recognizing what J.F.C. Fuller and Liddell Hart had demonstrated a decade earlier. Much of this failure to modernize is unjustly laid on General John K. Herr though he had already tried in 1939 to convertd one squadron (the 2nd Cavalry) to a mechanzied unit. He also addressed the Army War College and suggested the same for the 7th Cavalry Brigade. Slowly the unit was eased out and saw little service except in Texas (though it was one of the few units that had integrated African-Americans as part of its core). Besides being a very good copy with no significant wear, it also has the original packet with the copy of map A, and the two protractors. Often this packet which accompanied the book is lacking. The unofficial name to his item was "The Cavalry Journal". Previous owner's name else a near fine copy.
