Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1982. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. vi, 266 pages. Bibliography. Index. Embossed stamp on DJ and front endpaper, ink date on title page. The author is now a Fellow of the British Academy. Ian Clark was educated at the University of Glasgow and the Australian National University. He joined the University of Queensland as Professor of International Relations in 2014. Previously, he taught at Cambridge University and was E. H. Carr Professor of International Politics at Aberystwyth University. He has published many books in nuclear history, the ethics of war, and the combination of international history and international relations theory. This work has recently focussed on problems of international legitimacy. He is a Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales, and an Honorary Fellow of Selwyn College, Cambridge. Dr. Clark considers a variety of just war doctrines, as well as the writings of others. He discussion the post-1945 theories of limits to nuclear war, including the first reactions to the possibility of total war; the theories of limited war of the 1950s associated with names like Brodie, Kaufmann, Kissinger, and Osgood; the McNamara 'no cities' proposals of 1962; and the counterforce and limited nuclear options polices of the 1870 and early 1980s. This work rejects theoretical efforts to introduce the ideal of limits to nuclear war, not because such limits are intrinsically undesirable (even though they might make nuclear wear more thinkable), but because the concept of these limits, unsupported by an convincing theory of war itself, or of the means of its termination, exists in a political void.

Joshua Reuben Clark Jr. (September 1, 1871 – October 6, 1961) was an American attorney, civil servant, and a prominent leader in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Born in Grantsville, Utah Territory, Clark was a prominent attorney in the Department of State, and Undersecretary of State for U.S. President Calvin Coolidge. In 1930, Clark was appointed United States Ambassador to Mexico. Clark received a bachelor's degree from the University of Utah, where he was valedictorian and student-body president. Clark received a law degree from Columbia University, where he also became a member of Phi Delta Phi, a prominent international legal fraternity in which he remained active throughout his life. Clark later became an associate professor at George Washington University. In 1928, as Undersecretary of State to Secretary of State Frank Kellogg in the Coolidge administration, Clark wrote the "Clark Memorandum on the Monroe Doctrine", which repudiated the idea that the United States could arbitrarily use military force in Latin America. The Memorandum was a treatise exploring every nuance of the US's philosophy of hemispherical guardianship. It was published as an official State Department document and partially reprinted in textbooks for years. More

Guns Up! was the call that sent Marine Johnnie Clark and his buddy, Chan, racing to the hottest spot in a firefight with their M60 Machine gun. The life expectancy of a machine gunner in combat in Vietnam was said to be seven-and-a-half seconds after a firefight begins. Three things got Johnnie and Chan through months of deadly warfare--alive. The first was dumb luck. The second was the teaching of a big Marine called Red. The third was a faith in something bigger than men--or war. Johnnie M. Clark is a disabled veteran. After joining the Marine Corps at age seventeen, he served as a machine gunner with the famous 5th Marine Regiment in 1968 and was wounded three times. He was awarded the Silver Star for bravery. While recuperating in Okinawa, Mr. Clark studied karate as part of his rehabilitation program, and after his discharge, he taught martial arts at the University of South Florida. He is now a 6th Dan Master of tae kwan do and operates a tae kwan do school in St. Petersburg. Clark is also the author of Semper Fidelis, The Old Corps, No Better Way to Die, and Harlot’s Cup. He is the recipient of the Brig. Gen. Robert L. Denig Memorial Distinguished Service Award for writing. Mr. Clark has been awarded America’s 3rd highest medal for bravery and gallantry in combat, The Silver Star, 3 Purple Hearts, Vietnam’s highest Medal of Honor, The Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry with Palm, The Civil Action Combat Medal, The Marine Combat Ribbon among other decorations.

Chicago, IL: Benj. H. Sanborn & Co., 1917. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. vi, 415, [1] pages. Illustrations. Musical notes. Index. Ink notations on the fep. Cover has some wear and soiling. Corners bumped and rubbed. The content is primarily organized by student grade level, from first through eighth. The author was director of Physical Education at Illinois State Normal University. The author lived from 1887-1933. This is the first edition. Bibliographic research indicates that it went through 12 editions and was one of the preeminent works of its time, documenting the state of practice from the time the U.S. entered into the First World War. The Foreword notes that Play is nature's method of developing the nervous and muscular mechanism that give control of the body. As children advance in age, they turn from the spontaneous friskings and gambolings of all young life, to games of cooperation involving intellectual and social elements. The mere joy of muscular exercise is forgotten in the effort to security the object of the game. Cooperation, courtesy, self-control, a spirit of fairness are vital in well-conducted games. In all ages, rhythmic exercises have appealed to the sons and daughters of men. The very constitution of our nervous and muscular systems demands alternate tension and relaxation. This book undertakes to furnish to the teacher specific directions for all these forms of physical activity. More
