Vorwort: Burkard Freiherr von Müllenheim-Rechberg. Illustrationen des Bismarck-Wracks vonKen Marschall. Historische und technische Beratung William H. Garzke jr. Und Robert O. Dulin jr. Übersetzung von Bildtexten und Anhang von Jutta Wannemacher. 4800 Meter unter Wasser steht Deutschlands mächtigstes Schlachtschiff aufrecht und mit hochgereckten Geschützen. Sie war Hitlers stärkster Trumpf im Seekrieg und doch nur neun Tage im Einsatz. Nun wurde ihr Wrack - wie schon das der TITANIC - von Robert D. Ballard auf dem Meeresgrund aufgespürt. Er fand sie relativ intakt im Atlantik, auf geheimgehaltener Position: ein Seemannsgrab für über 2000 Männer. Damit ist das Rätsel der BISMARCK 50 Jahre nach ihrem Untergang geklärt: Sank sie nach der größten Treibjagd der Seekriegsgeschichte am 27. Mai 1941 durch Beschuß oder durch Selbstversenkung?

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 37 images of an unidentified 1930s expedition in northeast Dutch New Guinea from Humboldt Bay (today Jayapura) to Fak Fak, including Lake Sentani (just inland from Jayapura). The album is an anthropological record focusing on the local people, with the Kaya Kaya identified. The images include males of all ages as well as warriors, females, family groups, and their stilt dwellings and canoes. This expedition took place during the period in which the Dutch were intensifying their exploration of western New Guinea, to keep out the British and Germans and to discover exploitable natural resources. There is an American connection with the album - the only identified person is one Charles Gary, an American from Louisville, Kentucky, who was in New Guinea presumably to investigate the possibility of growing tobacco there. The Gary Tobacco Company was apparently formed in 1915 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liggett and Myers. This leads us to speculate that Gary had an association with Richard Archbold, the wealthy American sponsor of seven expeditions to New Guinea, the first three of which he lead himself. The location of the the third expedition is congruent with photographs in this album. At the same time, the Australian Leahy brothers were active in New Guinea. The first photograph in the album is intriguing- it is of three men, two in western suits (one carrying a large camera,) and one in clothes strikingly like the Australian army uniforms in W.W.I, with breeches and puttees. This album likely records images taken during one of the private expeditions of the time. Its route is not known, but places named here include Hollandia in Humboldt Bay and Fakfak, which were both Netherlands Indies government administrative posts, established in 1894 and 1910, and used as staging sites for the Dutch government expeditions. In 1926, the American-Dutch collaboration called the Stirling Expedition, sponsored by the Smithsonian, traveled along the Mamberamo River to the highlands of Dutch New Guinea. The sepia tone photogravure images include: 1. Image of a large native hut on stilts in the water 2. "Papuan Warrior of Hollandia", with feathers of white cockatoo in his hair, cassowary feathers around his neck and ankles, boar's tusk in his nose. On the verso is written, in pen and pencil, "Please ret. photo to Mr. Charles Gary, 2611 Top Hill Rd." 3. Sepia tone shot of 3 women carrying babies, their village behind them. 4. Men of the village in front of a western building with illegible sign. 5. Men beside an outrigger canoe. The carbon prints images include: 6. Kaya Kaya warriors, 3 men with bows and arrows. Smaller and crisper image with title beneath in ink. 7. Kaya Kaya warriors. Dark, crisp image of 3 men in war plumage. 8/9. Images of women posing for photograph, village in background. 10/11.
