Condizione: New. 2003 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1930). SB. 288pp. Ex-Private X is the pseudonym of Alfred McClelland Burrage , author, who served with 1/28th London Regiment (Artists Rifles), 190th Brigade, 63rd (RN) Division. Since the end of 1914 the battalion had acted as an Officers Training Corps and out of 15000 who served in the battalion 10250 were commissioned. Private X was an unsuccessful candidate. He joined his unit at Hesdin in early 1917 where it formed part of GHQ Troops, but from the summer of 1917 potential officers were trained in the UK and 1/28th became an ordinary infantry battalion. His front line service began in July 1917 when the battalion joined the 63rd Division which was then occupying the Oppy and Gavrelle sectors; in October it moved north to the salient where Third Ypres was in full swing. There are graphic descriptions of the conditions and the fighting during the attack on Passchendaele alongside the Canadians on 30th October which cost the battalion 350 casualties. Two months later there was more fierce fighting at Welch Ridge following the German successful counter-attack at Cambrai battle and again in the early days of the German March offensive But his gift with the pen also resulted in attacks, at times vitriolic, on troops behind the lines, especially the Military Police, the staff and the generals. Nor did he care for the Australians. To quote one example from the book, in which he is referring to the military police, he writes: âThe military police were a nice crowd, too. The only good word I have to say for the Australians is that they killed a lot of these swine; but they didnât kill half enough.â The New Zealanders on the other hand he really liked and admired. His war ended on 7th April when he was sent back suffering with trench feet and was invalided home. While waiting in hospital he spoke to a Warrant Officer asking him if he could get him marked for England. âI can,â the WO replied, âand that will cost you two pounds.â Unfortunately Burrage didnât have it, so he had to wait on - till 14th April when he started his journey home.

Condizione: New. 2003 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1916). 222pp with map of the Loos area.Published Price £11.50 F.O.O. (Forward Observation Officer) is the pseudonym of Capt C.J.C Street OBE, MC, of the Royal Garrison Artillery special reserve. He does not say which battery he belongs to but as the book was published in 1916 and censorship being very strict, this is hardly surprising. But he does let slip it was a siege battery, equipped with howitzers and that would suggest 6-inch, the most common, though there were, of course, heavier pieces. The main event of this book is the battle of Loos and he gives a very good blow-by-blow account of the four-day preliminary bombardment followed by the day of the assault and the aftermath But he also gives clear picture, sometimes amusing, of artillery warfare, its evolution, employment, problems, the working of the guns, artillery observation, changing gun positions and the problem of communications (telephone lines) between F.O.O. and the guns. It tells something of the spirit of the men who served the guns and the officers who commanded them. An interesting and informative book.

Paris, Pierre Seghers, 1948. In-12, 41 pp., broché, couverture originale imprimée (très légère insolation du dos, minuscules taches éparses). Édition originale de ces deux essais de Sartre, illustrés de 4 pointes sèches en noir de Wols. Un des 900 exemplaires sur Crèvecoeur du Marais, second papier après 15 Chine. L'artiste et le philosophe se rencontrent à Paris à la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Sartre fournit un soutien financier et psychologique à Wols, alors sans permis de travail et vivant dans des conditions misérables. Le présent ouvrage est la première de leurs deux collaborations, la seconde étant Nourritures, parue en 1949. Plus de dix ans près la mort du peintre et graveur, Sartre rédige un hommage à son oeuvre "Doigts et non doigts" qui parait dans un recueil de textes consacrés à Wols, Wols en personne, publié en 1963.
