Hamish Hamilton London 1970 First Edition
8vo - up to 9 ¾" tall - Octavo Cloth 450 g; pp. [vi], 176 (last blank); Photographic frontispiece. "A late education is an enchanting and tantalising memoir, beginning in 1938 during the Spanish Civil War and ending in the 1950s. It is essentially the story of a friendship of the author and Alex Clifford, both wore correspondence, together through the battles in the Western desert, the landings in Sicily and France, and the defeat of Germany. Opposites, rivals as well as friends, they were always at their best together. It is a record of a personal awakening and a tribute to those who helped in the process. Photographic illustrated dust jacket, rear fold over flap has been creased; slight rubbing of the bottom edge of the jacket. The top edge of the text block has been tinted dark blue, previous owner's name on the verso of the photographic frontispiece, otherwise there is no damage to report. Very Good

African Trilogy; The North African Campaign in 1940-1943; Comprising Mediterranean Front, A Year of Battle and The End in Africa
Moorehead, Alan
ISBN: 187584743X
Text Publishing Melbourne 1997 Reprint
8vo - up to 9 ¾" tall - Octavo Photographic Card 575 g.; XII, 641 pages, three pages following further publications from the publishing house, preface by author and index. Double page map at the beginning of the text showing the top of North Africa and the Mediterranean area. The text is illustrated with the occasional map. Photographic front cover with black titles to the front panel and pink and black titles to the backstrip. A hint of rubbing to the book corners and age toning to the internal text and text block edges. " The Australian writer Alan Morehead was perhaps the finest journalist who covered World War II. African Trilogy is his best-selling account of the prolonged battles between the Allies and the Axis powers in North Africa from 1942 to 1943. Morehead's epic story is as extraordinary now as it was more than 50 years ago. Morehead, the author of Gallipoli and Cooper's Creek, is an effortless, electrifying writer with an instinctive understanding of the historic events he was witnessing. Here is the story of the Rats of Tobruk, their backs burned black by the sun and their muscles bulging like tennis balls, of Alamein with its ' green-blue sparkling sea' and salt flats that look like the ' surface of the moon', of Rommel's prized Afrika Korps locked in a battle for the ' dreary worn-out waste' of the West and Desert with Montgomery's Eighth Army." -- from the rear panel blurb. Digital image available upon request to help assess condition. Military History Good
