paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten. The first complete and unexpurgated edition of the war diaries of Field Marshall Lord Alanbrooke - the most important and the most controversial military diaries of the modern era. Alanbrooke was CIGS - Chief of the Imperial General Staff - for the greater part of the Second World War. He acted as mentor to Montgomery and military adviser to Churchill, with whom he clashed. As chairman of the Chiefs of Staff committee he also led for the British side in the bargaining and the brokering of the Grand Alliance, notably during the great conferences with Roosevelt and Stalin and their retinue at Casablanca,Teheran, Malta and elsewhere. As CIGS Alanbrooke was indispensable to the British and the Allied war effort. The diaries were sanitised by Arthur Bryant for his two books he wrote with Alanbrooke. Unexpurgated, says Danchev, they are explosive. The American generals, in particular, come in for attack. Danchev proposes to centre his edition on the Second World War. Pre and post-war entries are to be reduced to a Prologue and Epilogue). John Keegan says they are the military equivalent of the Colville Diaries (Churchill's private secretary), THE FRINGES OF POWER. These sold 24,000 in hardback at Hodder in 1985.…

Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 7th Impression. Hardcover. War Diaies. 1939-1945. The most important and most controversial history diaries of the modern era. These diaries provide a blow-by-blow account of how the Second World War was waged and eventually won, from the man at Churchill's elbow (and sometimes his throat). They open a unique windo onto the inner workins of the Grand Alliance. Alanbrooke's implacable arguments spared no one - politicians, Americans, Russians, Chinese, even his own generals: Wavell, Auchinleck, Montgomery, Slim, Alexander. At home he had to contend with Churchill and minister to Montgomery; abroad, he had to accomodate the Americans and satisfy the Soviets. Roosevelt, Beaverbrook and Eden, all pass in review before him. His diaries tell us what he saw and felt - moments of triumph and exilaration, but also darker things: frustration, depression, betrayal, doubt. This, the last major account of the direction of the Second World War, is as unsparing as its author.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How should the metropolis be governed What is the appropriate scale to consider and organize local governance and communities Bringing together an interdisciplinary and international body of scholarly work, City-Regions in Prospect explores the city-region as both an evolving concept and as a growing area of planning practice. Contributors raise critical questions about the ways in which governance reform is being reshaped and whether current trends towards rescaling and rebounding cities actually address local challenges of urbanization and globalization. These essays highlight the tensions and uncertainties between the city-region as a concept and the experiences of local communities when municipal policies are applied. Proposing a challenge to scholars and municipal leaders to account for flexibility, adaptability to local contexts, social robustness, and community engagement, City-Regions in Prospect Captures the growing relevance and importance of cities in a rapidly urbanizing world.…

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. First edition, first printin. Hard cover in dust jacket. Published Berkeley & Los Angeles: University of California Press, 2001. Large, thick 8vo., li+763pp., illustrated b/w plates, facsimile endpapers. Green cloth with gilt titles. "Beginning in September 1939, the diaries were written up each night in the strictest secrecy and against all regulations. Alanbrooke's mask of command was legendary but these diaries tell us what he really saw and felt: moments of triumph and exhilaration, but also frustration, depression, betrayal, and doubt. They expose the gulf between the military and the politicians of the War Cabinet, and how often military strategy was misguided and nearly derailed by political prejudices. They also reveal the incredible strain on Alanbrooke of the Allied conferences in Washington, Moscow, Casablanca, Quebec, and Tehran, as he tried after intense and exhausting argument (not least with Churchill) to match Allied strategy with the reality of British military power and the fragility of the British Empire. These diaries demonstrate the true depth of Alanbrooke's rage and despair at Churchill's failure to grasp overall strategy. This was particularly acute in the winter of 1943-44 when Churchill, fueled by medicine and alcohol, no longer seemed master of himself. As new in as new dust jacket.…
