Paperback. Zustand: Fine. First Edition. There has only been one other diary of a member of a Labour Battalion in the First World War published, so this new discovery, here published for the first time is of great importance. These men were considered not-quite medically fit for military service, but fit enough for the hard manual work of building railways, clearing roads etc. The title is from the diary, and uses one of the derogatory names given the Labour Battalions by combat troops, yet their work was essential for the war effort. William Henry Thompson came from Cottingham in East Yorkshire and gives an intelligent, honest, revelatory, critical and often heart-breaking account of his experiences in France and Belgium, working very close to the front and witnessing first hand many of the shocking events of the war, from 1915 to 1919 (he was not demobilised till January). The text has been carefully edited in full, introduced and indexed by Katrin McClure of the Cottingham Local History Society and it is illustrated with 32 pages of mostly colour pictures, 128pp.

Paperback. Zustand: Fine. First Edition. A book which examines the relationship between the Dukes of Argyll, of Inveraray Castle, and the people living on the small Scottish island of Tiree. Much of it features the Highland Clearances, but events on an island rather than the hills. In the summer of 1886 hundreds of Tiree's islanders banded together to defy the Eighth Duke of Argyll, whose forbidding portrait with its implacable gaze is the last colour plate in the book. A sizeable police force was sent to the island, and repelled back to the mainland. 'There is war in Tiree' reported The Times. The eyes of the UK were suddenly focused on this remote island. The government then sent in the army and the ring-leaders were arrested and imprisoned. Soon afterwards, a member of the House of Commons used parliamentary privilege to call the Duke 'a thief and a robber by law - a shameless thief and a shameless robber'. The book is a concise history of one island during this, arguably the most dramatic period in Scottish history. It is a story of change and controversy. At its core are subjects of ducal policy, population growth, destitution and emigration, and then government intervention and land settlement. It does not seek to romanticise the islanders' plight or their stand, nor does it cast the dukes as villains. Instead it reflects on the islanders' natural desire to better their lives and the dukes' attempts to modernise this part of their estates. Much of Tiree's history is characterised by the resulting tension. The cover features a large-scale plan of the island made in 1768-9, reproduced in full amongst the colour plates and the book cites many manuscript sources from the Inveraray archives.

Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. A fine, new copy. When Dorothy May died in 2003, her neighbours knew that she possessed 'something of great value' in her bureau. Jeweller Michael Bassett was expecting gemstones, but instead he found a stack of some 250 letters and a 'guest book'. Between 1938 and 1946, Dorothy, as a young music-teacher, left Lancashire, married Paul May - stage-manager of the State Theatre in Freiburg - and set up home there at the height of the Third Reich. Paul was conscripted into the Wehrmacht in 1942, and by New Year he was at Stalingrad . and soon lost to sight. Dorothy's letters to her husband, written in English, recording her daily round, soon started to arrive back marked 'return to Sender'. To maintain her spirits, she continued to write to him, but she did not post the letters, and thus they became a diary of an isolated Englishwoman in a hostile city, beneath her compatriot's bombs, as she cautiously negotiated relationships with fellow citizens and the state. She continued to write and when she departed for England in late 1946 for medical treatment, she left the letters in their bomb-damaged flat, for Paul to read on his hoped-for return from Russia. Some months later she returned to collect them, unread by Paul, and they were locked away - awaiting rediscovery only after her death. 197 of the letters have been edited with editorial comments. Foreword by Sir Max Hastings and a German foreword by Dietrich Elchlepp. 20 photographs and maps and an index.
