Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This fascinating collection of letters traces the exchanges between a young subaltern on the front, Gerard 'Ged' Garvin, and his mother and father at home. Correspondence was eagerly awaited by all. Ged savoured letters home like 'Jim Hawkins trickling the doubloons through his fingers'. Equally, his mother and father at home were always fearful that each letter they received would be the last. In a letter J. L. Garvin sent to his son 21 July 1916 he wrote: 'Of course there's no fresh letter from you and we didn't expect it. But we hope, all the same, to get word tomorrow .' Ged was killed the very next day. He was just twenty years old.Few editions of First World War letters include those from home as well as from the front. That Ged's father was J. L. Garvin (1868-1947) - editor of The Observer and an important figure in pre-war politics and society - adds a further dimension to this fascinating collection. During the war J. L. Garvin was in almost daily contact with those at the head of political and military affairs, and his letters gave Ged the view of the nerve centre. They are remarkable for their reflections on the war and its management - or in Garvin's view its mismanagement - and for the character sketches of major figures of the day, such as Churchill, Lloyd George, and Admiral 'Jacky' Fisher. His mother, Christine, meanwhile wrote of family and domestic affairs showing the impact of war on every day life.The three-cornered correspondence therefore combines three distinct narratives: the view of the subaltern at the front; the view from the editor's office at The Observer; and the view from the head of a substantial household. Taken together they vividly capture the experience of a family during the First World War. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Oxford University Press is proud to present the: Concise Oxford Textbook of Medicine All the authority of the Oxford Textbook of Medicine - at a low cost and in one convenient volume. Ideal for everyday reference, revision, and general reading - and for preparation for postgraduate examinations. Offers accessible, readable information on every disorder that the physician is likely to encounter. Differntial diagnosis and evidence-based management are detailed throughout. Includes an outstanding section on infectious diseases Provides a bridge between the best-selling Oxford Handbooks series and the exhaustive detail of the Oxford Textbooks The Oxford Textbooks, led by the renowned Oxford Textbook of Medicine, have found their way onto the shelves of clinics, libraries, and hospital departments the world over. They have earned praise for their careful integration of basic science andt he best clinical practice, their international focus, an not least their exhaustive coverage. Spring 2000 sees an exciting new development - the publication of our new, eagerly-awaited one-volume textbook of medicine based on the Oxford Textbook of Medicine. The Concise Oxford Textbook of Medicine retains all the authority of its parent text, whilst providing more concise and accessible information on how to manage every condition that a physician is likely to have to diagnose and treat. Starting with the content of the Oxford Textbook of Medicine, two of the original editors have selected the most essential and practical content, and reorganized and restructured it for ease of use. The authors of the original Oxford Textbook of Medicine articles have been updated and rewritten their worl to make it more practically focused, and many new chapters have been commissioned, whilst up-to-date references and many new illustrations have been added throughout. Every chapter of the Concise Oxford Textbook of Medicine has then been painstakingly edited by Professors Ledingham and Warrell to eliminate repetition and achieve complete consistency and clarity. No other one-volume textbook of medicine is as international, readable, or accessible, and none has the balance and perspective of the Concise Oxford Textbook of Medicine Humane - for example, there are outstanding new sections on pain and palliative medicine International - this textbook has been designed for use in all parts of the world and includes an outstanding section on infectious diseases Accessible - the style is eminently readable, and the new page design makes navigation easy and aids rapid text searches Comprehensive - and amazingly broad in scope for a one-volume textbook Every practicising physician and trainee and many medical students will want to have a personal copy of this definitive textbook.…
