Rare military guide to Palestine, issued by the British military intelligence for use during the British Mandate. The present copy was stamped by the 1st Batallion Irish guards, which was stationed in Palestine after the Second World War to perform internal security duties there. The work offers a description of the history, government, population, topography, water resources, railways, climate, health, and trade of the country. Also included are a folding map of the Palestinian railways, and four folding tables with graphs about the weather. The first edition of the handbook was issued in April 1944. The present copy is the third and final edition, which was revised and brought up-to-date with the situation in May 1947. As the handbook was "restricted" and therefore likely published in limited numbers, any edition of it is very rare. We have only been able to find one other copy in sales records of the past hundred years, and WorldCat only records two copies in libraries.With a blue stamp at the head of the front wrapper ("Captain, education officer, 1st Battalion Irish Guards"), and again at the foot of the first page. The edges and corners of the wrappers are somewhat scuffed. The leaves are slighty creased throughout, with brown stains on pp. 7-13 and 31, slightly affecting the text.

The American Expeditionary Force, Siberia (AEF in Siberia) was a formation of the United States Army involved in the Russian Civil War in Vladivostok, Russia, after the October Revolution, from 1918 to 1920. The force was part of the larger Allied North Russia intervention. As a result of this expedition, early relations between the United States and the Soviet Union were poor. U. S. President Woodrow Wilson's claimed objectives for sending troops to Siberia were as much diplomatic as they were military. One major reason was to rescue the 40,000 men of the Czecho-Slovak Legion, who were being held up by Bolshevik forces as they attempted to make their way along the Trans-Siberian Railroad to Vladivostok, and it was hoped, eventually to the Western Front. Another major reason was to protect the large quantities of military supplies and railroad rolling stock that the United States had sent to the Russian Far East in support of the Russian Empire's war efforts on the Eastern Front of World War I. Equally stressed by Wilson was the need to "steady any efforts at self-government or self defense in which the Russians themselves may be willing to accept assistance." At the time, Bolshevik forces in Siberia controlled only small pockets, and President Wilson wanted to make sure that neither Cossack marauders nor the Japanese military would take advantage of the unstable political environment along the strategic railroad line and in the resource-rich Siberian regions straddling it. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall. …
