Legendary Hollywood stunt pilot Frank G. Tallman (1919-1978) co-founded Tallmantz Aviation in 1961 with famed stunt pilot and air racer Paul Mantz (1903-1965) for the purpose of supplying pilots and aircraft for movie and television productions. Among Tallman's many notable aviation feats were his stunt flying for the 1963 movie "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" as well as being aerial supervisor for "The Great Waldo Pepper" in 1975 and aerial coordinator and pilot for the TV series "Baa Baa Black Sheep." Doubleday generally specifies their first printings by a "First Edition" statement upon their copyright pages and thereafter omitting any indentifying statement(s) for later printings. However, as copies among past inventory were all later printings readily identified by number lines upon their copyright pages, Doubleday evidently reversed their standard procedure leaving the presumption that, with this particular book, first printings are unstated. Please note that this large book has an approximate shipping weight of 3.75 pounds and will require additional postage for any postal class other than domestic Media Mail. {AviationShelf#2|CMS-00813} ISBN 0385091575.…

Interior: prev. owners signature on title page; some pencil underlining by a prev. owner (Copy from the private library of the German Hispanist Horst Rogmann). USADO / GEBRAUCHT / USED. Gordon K. Lewis's landmark study examines Puerto Rico's history and political development under Spanish and, after 1898, U.S. rule. Combining historical analysis with a study of the island's political, economic, social, and cultural life, Lewis offers a penetrating critique of American imperialism and Puerto Rico's continuing colonial dependency, while examining the struggle for autonomy, independence, and social transformation. ** 10% DESCUENTO/RABATT/DISCOUNT PRIMAVERA * excl.

Softcover. Condizione: New. 1a ed. 14x23cm Colección La Cruz del Sur 1063. Erste Auflage, 320p. Rústicas son solapas. Sprache: Spanisch, NUEVO / NEU / NEW. Se suele tachar a la poesía de Alberto Girri de intelectual y abstracta. Sin embargo, destaca por una inmensa concreción. Una concreción que no es la de lo real, sino la de los esfuerzos aproximativos de la mente del poeta. La poesía de Girri está inspirada por el ejercicio del pensamiento, cuya tensión y avance discontinuo lo vuelven patético y gestual. En imágenes incisivas en su sobriedad Girri presenta la poesía suspendida entre lo que intenta y lo que logra. De este modo la crítica: explora sus límites con una sutileza y un rigor en nada inferiores a los de la más inteligente teoría.
