Did belong to a library before but book and wrapper remained in a very good condition >>>  October, 1858. In the manor house of Ambleden, the servants were lighting the fires, the children were stirring in the nursery and Sir William was preparing for a substantial breakfast before the morning's cubbing. In the afternoon, if the weather held, there would be hunting. Young Mundy, eight-year-old son of the head groom, awoke to a comfortable world. He was already able to run errands for his father, to fetch a pail or a blanket, to hold a bridle, and soon he would be able to act as groom when the children rode their ponies. -  This is the world in which T. H. White begins his panorama of the Victorian era, a lovely lyrical novel in which the appealing figure of Mundy is the focal point of an ample historical tapestry. Through Mundy's eyes we watch the drama and spectacle of the passing years, as he leaves the quiet, generous contry life of the mid-nineteenth century to serve in the fierce campaigns of the Zulu War. The Edwardian era finds Mundy coachman to a redheaded Russian countess who is eccentric enough still to drive behind horses when the day of the motorcar has already arrived— with the King himself, an enthusiastic and early patron, "tearing about the country at twenty miles an hour!" *N.B.*   If you buy more than one book from me you only pay R 6 postage on each additional book – see what else I have to offer, it might be worth your while.

Operation White Lion By Chris Mc Bride - the study of a pride of lions and what happened  

 2007 / Hardcover / Good condition “In 2006, almost a hundred years after the founding of the National Party, the unthinkable happened: the once mighty party of apartheid collapsed into the African National Congress, its sworn enemy for almost a century. While a string of blunders saw party support plummeting, such a humiliating end was wholly unexpected. Is it true that the NP’s leaders had betrayed their supporters? What role did the NP play during the negotiations to ensure increased wealth among the black and white South African elite? And is greater material welfare enough to keep Afrikaners satisfied, or are we seeing a resurgence of Afrikaner nationalism in the “De la Rey” phenomenon? These and other issues are addressed in White Power & the Rise and Fall of the National Party. Vast in scope and details, this book provides an overview of South African politics and society from 1900 to the present, with particular focus on the last 15 years. It covers contemporary debates on apartheid abuses, the leaders’ betrayal, collaboration with the ANC and the De la Rey phenomenon. It will be of interest to all readers wanting to understand current politics, whether they supported or opposed the NP.”

Subtitle: The Sicilian Mafia in Their Own Words Author: Attilio Bolzoni Publisher: Macmillan (2013) ISBN-10: 0230752160 ISBN-13: 9780230752160 Condition: Very Good Binding: Softcover Pages: 473 Dimensions: 21.3 x 13.3 x 3.5 cm +++ by Attilio Bolzoni +++ White Shotgun is an Italian term that refers to a Mafia-style killing, in which no trace of the victim can be found. For thirty years, prize-winning Sicilian journalist Attilio Bolzoni has reported on the shadowy activities of Cosa Nostra. Now, for the first time, he has collected together a powerful anthology of rare interviews, court proceedings and transcripts of phone taps that together capture the essence of this most hidden of secret societies. From the 'traditional' Mafia of the early 20th Century to the 'Maxi' show-trials of the 1980s and beyond, White Shotgun is both a history of modern Sicilian crime, and a book about the twisted logic and language of Cosa Nostra. From the most humble of foot soldiers to famous pentiti ('grasses') and top-level Bosses, this is a portrait of the men who live by a code of silence - in their own words.
