National Library of Australia. II. Title. 327.41092 Editor: Julie Stokes Designer: Beverly Swifte Proofreader: Tony Twining Printed by Lamb Printers, Perth FOREWORD Autobiographies all too often conceal the true essence of their authors, instead depicting them as they see themselves or, perhaps worse, as they would wish to be seen. Collected letters are sometimes little better, concealing from the addressee, and consequently from other readers, as much or more than they reveal. John Mason's remarkable work is neither autobiography nor conventional collection of letters. From it there emerges a fascinating portrait of a man's development from 17-year-old soldier at the end of the Second World War to senior diplomat of some 40 years later; insights, too, into many of the events of the troubled second half of this century. The letters collected here are those John Mason wrote regularly, for over 40 years, to his mother and, after her death, to his sister; recounting his remarkable and very varied career over those years.

  • The French Book Trade in Enlightenment Europe, 1769-1794
    Published on Reviews in History (https://reviews.history.ac.uk) The French Book Trade in Enlightenment Europe, 1769-1794 Review Number: 1355 Publish date: Thursday, 6 December, 2012 Editor: Simon Burrows Mark Curran Vincent Hiribarren Sarah Kattau Henry Merivale Date of Publication: 2012 Publisher: University of Leeds Place of Publication: Leeds Reviewer: Robert Darnton Simon Burrows proclaims the database that he and a team of researchers from the University of Leeds published last June as ‘a wonder to behold’, and indeed it is wonderful. Entitled The French Book Trade in Enlightenment Europe, 1769–1794. Mapping the Trade of the Société typographique de Neuchâtel [2], it draws on account books of the Société typographique de Neuchâtel (STN) to show where and when books were sold across the entire European continent. By clicking through drop-down menus, the user can trace the dissemination of individual works and compare the relative importance of genres and authors. Graphs show variations in sales over time, and maps illustrate patterns of geographical diffusion. A beautifully designed network of links makes it possible to check the identity of the books themselves, often including their place and date of publication. Statistical tables provide information about best-sellers on many levels – throughout Europe, in particular countries, and town-by-town. A user can click happily through all this material, following leads and developing hypotheses to be tested by further research. The French Book Trade in Enlightenment Europe (FBTEE) represents four years of intense team work. It is a prodigious accomplishment and a joy to use. The pleasure is compounded by admiration for the rigor of the work and for its potential relevance to some important historical questions.

  • 11 Silver Squelchers & Their Interesting Associates
    #11 Silver Squelchers & Their Interesting Associates Presented 2015 by Charles Savoie This presentation will be an anti-climax from #10 about the defeat of the Hunt-Arab silver play. I hope readers will find the information interesting. We’ll review 15 personalities from the 1980 Pilgrims rosters (scan above) who don’t appear to have had any direct connection to the downfall of the Hunts. This will give you more feel for the type of people who are members of this nearly unknown organization that stands at the highest levels of American and United Kingdom-British Commonwealth finance, industry, diplomacy, law and government. These are the world’s leading globalists whose interests are always advanced by brewing wars, and this is nothing new. It’s not easy deciding which examples to exclude because most emphatically, there are many more than 15 interesting types available for examination. Examination---that’s funny, because these Pilgrims aren’t willing subjects for scrutiny, which is why despite the combined influence of its membership, the group maintains such a low public profile as to be bizarre. It isn’t strange that their preference as an organization is for concealment, because many of them are individually famous. How else can they best work against the middle class and the non-aligned rich but to conceal that they are a phalanx? Actually some of the names we’ll review may have played a role in the Hunt silver crash; but there may not be definite indications to this effect. 1) Linwood Parks Shipley (Pilgrims 1980 and other years) was a partner in Brown Brothers, Harriman & Company at 59 Wall Street.
