Book Lists

1990

By Terry Hooker


Three book lists have arrived from "ATHENA BOOKS", "THE HISPANIC AND LUSO BRAZILIAN COUNCIL" and "FREW MACKENZIE" [their addresses are in back numbers and I don't have much space], from the first list I've picked out "A TIME TO STAND" [about the Alamo] by W.LORD 1978, mint £7.95 plus postage and there are advertised '4 lots of "EUCALOL" soap cards from Brazil printed and issued in the 1940's, each showing one figure from the Rodriguez famous album of 1922, prices range from £100 to £6.00.

The second list deals with new books from the Publishers I noted down these; "Centaur of the North: Francisco Villa, the Mexican Revolution and Northern Mexico" BY M.A.Machado and Published by Eakin Press, P.O. Box 23069, Austin TEXAS 78735 U.S.A. priced $17.95. and "The Banana Wars: United States Interventions in the Caribbean, 1898-1934" By L.D.Langley, Published by University Press of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky 40506-0024, U.S.A. priced $26.00. While the last one I include two; "Relation du Voyage de la Mer du Sud aux Cotes du Chily et du Perou, fait pendants les annees 1712,1713 & 1714 by A.F.Frezier, published 1732 [1st Edition 1716] price £500.00 and "The History of the Conquest of Mexico by the Spaniards" by A.de Solis y Rivadeneyra, 1st English edition 1724, price £1100.00, the latter two books would be O.K. for Museums/Archives as the price might be above the normal member, but at least we know that they exist! T.D.H.
