Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good-. Illustrated by Ivan T. Sanderson (illustratore). First Edition; First Printing. Drawings; 213 pages; Contents clean and secure in original gray cloth binding, cloth foxed and faded, small hole at bottom of front gutter. Gift inscription on ffep "Kermit Roosevelt Jr / from Ed Whitney" -- this would be Kermit Roosevelt III (father of Kermit Roosevelt IV, later referred to as "III" since his granfather's death in 2000). PROVENANCE: Kermit "Kim" Roosevelt, Jr. (1916 - 2000) was the grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt. He was a career intelligence officer who served in the Office of Strategic Services and was the mastermind of the Central Intelligence Agency's Operation Ajax, which orchestrated the coup against Iran's democratically-elected Mohammed Mossadegh administration, and returned Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran, to Iran's Peacock Throne in August 1953 for the purpose of returning Western control of Middle Eastern oil supplies. In Egypt under Allen Dulles, Kim Roosevelt supervised the CIA's operation to undermine the popular General Neguib and encourage the rise to power of Gamul Abdul Nasser. Even before his decisive victory, Nasser was communicating through Roosevelt to make a settlement with Great Britain. These back channel negotiations eventually produced the treaty signed in October 1954. Nasser ascended and for the next decade Egypt's relations with the West moved along a sometimes rocky road. By 1965 relations had significantly deteriorated and Nasser was quite worried the CIA was plotting to assassinate him. After the Odell-Amin case broke, the CIA began to look for "more West friendly" Egyptian elements. Their attention landed on the Muslim Brotherhood, which according to Talcott Seelye, "We thought of Islam as a counterweight to communism. We saw it as a moderate force, and a positive one." In fact the CIA was spending millions of dollars on anti-Nasser operations, including an extensive propaganda campaign.

Hardcover. Condizione: Good+. Condizione sovraccoperta: No Dust Jacket. Leather. 8vo. Published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York. 1910. Xxiv, 583 pgs. Maps. Illustrated with 200+ photos by Kermit Roosevelt. First Edition/First Printing (with Conkey/Hammond seal present to the verso page). Bound in 3/4 maroon leather and matching cloth boards with gilt titles to the spine. Boards are scuffed and worn with scuffing present to the edges of the boards. Previous owner's name present to the FFEP. Text is free of marks. Outside of the spine, the binding is tight and solid. While he is best known for being the 26th President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt is also remembered for his immense love of nature, animals, and game hunting. "African Game Trails" is Roosevelt's memoirs about a hunting trip to Africa that he took with his son Kermit in 1908. In the text, he vividly describes the country in exotic detail. In full detail, he depicts the enthusiastic thrill of the hunt as well as the beauty of the animals he tracked. He also portrays his interactions with other famous game hunters such as Major Boyd Cunningham and Frederick Selous, who is known as one of the last big game hunters in Africa. As a naturalist, Roosevelt was immensely interested in the native flora and fauna of East Africa. He included descriptions of fascinating plants and animals that are only found on the continent, introducing the natural landscape of Africa to readers who had never seen it. Roosevelt was a firm believer in portraying wildlife as naturally as possible; he even wrote a number of essays denouncing anthropomorphism in literature. He wanted his works to be as realistic and lifelike as possible, so that "African Game Trails" is a true representation of the beauty and majesty that Roosevelt saw during his trip to East Africa. His adventures in the untamed jungles of the continent are as thrilling now as they were when the book was first published in the early twentieth century. EB; 2.5 x 9 x 6.1 Inches; 529 pages.
