Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Longlisted for the Dzanc Books Prize for FictionNew Mexico Territory. 1910. Julia Halley, unlikely owner of the Many Springs Canyon Trading Post on the Navajo Reservation, has attracted a small but devoted circle of friends-her 'gathering'-both Anglo and Navajo, all with their own stories to tell. Among them, a Southern doctor who opened a free reservation clinic after the Spanish-American War. A Navajo woman, also a healer, who survived the Long Walk of the 1860s. A self-taught photographer and former Franciscan brother. A young surveyor drawn to the Southwest by a fascination with the ancient Anasazi ruins. And living deep in the canyon, Clement Yazzie, half Navajo and half Hopi, whose ruthless reputation conceals a shadowy legacy, and Johanna Yazzie, his enigmatic younger sister, mute since birth. HALLEY'S GATHERING. A sweeping tale of a new century. When the dawn of the modern is supplanting the violence and isolation of the Old West, but also endangering the Navajo way of life. Where the magnetic Julia Halley struggles against the dictates of polite society to follow her own uncompromising path. Where the controversial explorer Richard Wetherill and the celebrated photographer Edward S. Curtis are among the notable names who play a part. And where, coincidentally, the return of Halley's Comet is just over the horizon. …

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. Colour printed map prepared from NASA Land Satellite (Landsat) imagery with geologic overlay, 1/500K, 107x134cm, English and Arabic text, folded in its original buff printed envelope 24x30cm. Map near fine with some crinkling. Envelope good, creased with short closed tears, and the name of the previous owner, British Arabist and diplomat C.S.M. (Craig) Shelton, handwritten to the front. This covers the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden coasts up to Wadi Najran (N) and the Rub al Khali (NE) in the interior, with the partially defined borders drawn in for PDR or South Yemen (named here as Yemen (Aden)) and Saudi Arabia. There are labels for major settlements, Wadis, and Jabals, with routes drawn in. There is a Geological Explanation, and a list of references. An Index Map shows the location and dates of Landsat images used in its compilation, all taken during 1972-73. The geologic interpretation was field checked in June and July 1975, and February 1976. This and the corresponding Geographic Map (I-1143-A) were prepared to support USAID's development project planning and implementation. The work was done in cooperation with Yemeni authorities including the Central Planning and Organisation, the Ministries of Economy and Agriculture, and the Mineral Petroleum Authority. Their publication dates around the time of the build-up in hostilities that led to the Second Yemenite War.…

Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. Two related reports in original staple-bound brown printed wraps 22x28cm. TL 58: (1), 17; TL63: (1), 8pp, both opening with a covering letter from Glen Brown to Fadil Kabbani, Deputy Minister for Mineral Resources. Wraps good, foxed and faintly damp stained, short closed tears, staples rusting. Interiors near fine with red ms ticks by the edge of the table on p6 in TL53, and some ink offsetting to the blank versos (not affecting text). These reports are a very early "preliminary" product of the monumental USGS-Aramco mapping project (1956-63), which, among other things, produced 21 Geological maps covering the whole of Saudi Arabia in a series of Quadrangles numbered I-200A to I-220A. They were prepared under the follow-up Saudi Arabian Mineral Exploration Project launched in 1963, which Brown coordinated from Jeddah. The team was made up of staff from USGS and the Directorate General for Mineral Resources. Their first analysis done during 22 March and 9 May was issued on 15 May 1966, based on 31 samples collected from Wadi Wassat in the Asir area (Map I-217A Asir Quadrangle). They found potential sources for pyrite meriting further exploration. Progress Report II issued on 8 June, presents findings with respect to silver and gold deposits. Among the main references are Overstreet's own Technical Letters 23 and 40. Very rare. Brown's covering letter states 10 copies of each were sent to Kabbani. Additional copies would have been circulated within USGS and probably Aramco. Worldcat records other letters in the series, but not this one. USGS reissued them in 1967 as Open-File Reports 67-174 and 67-175 (USGS website). …

Wraps good, foxed, lightly damp stained, with lower wrap coming away from staples. Interiors very good with ink offsetting to several of the blank versos (not affecting text). This report is a very early "preliminary" product of the monumental USGS-Aramco mapping project (1956-63), which, among other things, produced 21 Geological maps covering the whole of Saudi Arabia in a series of Quadrangles numbered I-200A to I-220A. It was prepared under the follow-up Saudi Arabian Mineral Exploration Project launched in 1963, which Brown coordinated from Jeddah. The team was made up of staff from USGS and the Directorate General for Mineral Resources, accompanied by a driller. Fieldwork was conducted in October 1966 at the ancient mines of En Nugger, Wadi Al Mushel, and Esh Sha'ib in eastern Asir (area covered by Map I-217A), to plan geophysical surveys and locate diamond drill holes. Local residents reported the existence of several other ancient mines close to En Nugger. It also recommended further research to the west of Abha. Very rare. Brown's covering letter states 20 copies were sent to Kabbani. Additional copies would have been circulated within USGS and probably Aramco. Worldcat locates two at the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology, and Colorado School of Mines (OCLC 182522754). USGS reissued it in 1969 as Open-File Report 69-189 (USGS website).…

This continued his expedition made the previous year between Khamis Mushayt and Bi'r Idimah (described in Technical Letter No. 23). He travelled 5300km accompanied by the local guide Maeith and driver Homud Saud in two 3/4 ton 4x4 Ford pickups provided by the Directorate General for Mineral Resources, with aircraft dispatched for 4 scheduled rendezvous. He took 490 samples of wadi sand, about the same number of magnetite, and 41 other materials. He identified possibilities for marble and asbestos, and suggested an ancient mine, the Ishaaib, may contain copper (pp4-5). He prepared the report on 5 July 1965, and it was issued on 15 January 1966. Very rare. Brown's covering letter states 10 copies were sent to Kabbani.

He travelled 6574km accompanied by the local guide Homud El Shebany, and drivers Homud Saud and Khalif Ali in a Power Wagon, a 3/4 ton Ford 4x4, and Land Rover 4x4 provided by the Directorate General for Mineral Resources. There were 2 rendezvous by Ministry aircraft, and 14 camps were set. He took 800 samples. Other than the Al Lugatah gold mine (known to the Directorate by the work of DF Shaffner in 1957) no other exploitable occurences were found.

Sixteen camps were set, and 483 samples of various geologic materials, principally wadi sands, laterite, and gossan were taken" (p1).
