1781 Memoires of Duke of Sully France Henry IV Huguenot Utopian Europe IRISH ed
“A very valuable memoire of the history of the reign of Henry IV” Maximlien de Bethune was a 16th-century French statesman who was the first Duke of Sully. Most known for his service under Henry IV of France, Sully left a collection of memoirs which is now a valuable and important work on the history of France during the reign of Henry the Great. Even though ‘Memoires’ contains many fictitious stories, it is still recognized for its accuracy and portrayal of European royalty. The most controversial section of ‘Memoires’ is Sully’s vision of a utopian society designed for all of Europe. He envisioned a Christian republic that was governed by a ‘Very Christian Council’ in which all differences were resolved and a military was complete removed. Some scholars even claim that Sully’s plan helped establish what would become the current European Union. According to Tulard, this work is a “very valuable memoire of the history of the reign of Henry IV.” This highly rare Irish edition was translated into English by Charlotte Lennox. According to the ESTC, this edition is a “very free adaptation of Pierre Mathurin de l’Ecluse des Loges, translated by Charlotte Lennox.” $599.00 In stock Add to cart Free shipping wordwide!

A vivid letter in which Captain Christie of the 48th Regiment, serving as aide de camp to General Abercromby, describes military operations on the New York frontier and quotes General Webb's description of the attack on Fort William Henry. Christie describes the growing intensity of military activity on the frontier: ''On Sunday last by Express from General Webb, he apprehended the design of the Enemy, against Fort William Henry, Accordingly wrote and I sent...Expresses everywhere, to raise the Militia.'' Responses, he notes, were mixed: ''But the Militia here about...have been very Delatory [sic], but they are now beginning to come in.'' He reports that Webb, at Fort Edward, has sent several messages demanding men, he quotes the most recent, describing how the fort had been surrounded by ''a large Body of Indians and Canadians'' joined by ''Troops and Artillery.'' A Canadian prisoner, stated that the enemy force consisted of ''Eleven thousand Men with Thirty Six Pieces of Cannon, and five Morters [sic], at least.'' Webb is desperate for aid: ''All Communication is Cutt off at Present...We are in no situation to assist them, not having fifteen hundred Men'' and reinforcements must be sent as ''the fate of this Colony depends on it.''

Correspondence of Henry Hubman, Iowa medical student / Montana Indian fighter / deserter in Canada. 41 Autograph Letters Signed from Henry Hubman to his parents Jacob and Margaret Hubman and to brothers Herman, George and Frederick Hubman, plus 5 other related letters to the Hubmans; condition generally strong, many letters with original stamped and postmarked envelopes. Vp, 1880-89 Estimate $8,000 - 12,000 The troubled life of a fugitive soldier comes alive in these letters. Henry Hubman (1860-1927) was raised in Fayette, Seneca County, NY and left home for medical school in Keokuk, IA. There, on the verge of graduation, he suddenly enlisted in the army, apparently to escape a relationship with a young woman. In July 1881, he began service in the 18th Infantry Regiment, and was soon sent to Montana on the western frontier, just five years after Little Bighorn. Military life did not agree with him, and he deserted in February 1883 in a premeditated act. He fled to Canada and settled just across the border in Emerson, Manitoba, where he married and raised a family. He apparently never returned to the United States. The 5 earliest letters in this collection were written as a medical student at Keokuk's College of Physicians and Surgeons of the Upper Mississippi (since absorbed into the University of Iowa system). The first one, dated 20 October 1880, complains of the faculty: "The professors are all good except the one on surgery. He had his first operation yesterday, and gave his patient so mutch chloroform that he died on the table, a bad beginning." On 28 February a classmate sent a letter home: "Henry is missing." An exhaustive search on foot and by the new miracle of telephony yielded no clues. He had passed his examinations, was expecting $100, but had apparently "skipped town." The Hubmans received a letter the next year from May Scott, who asserted that she was "the young lady he was engaged to when he boarded in Keokuk" and asked them to "forgive him and help him now out of his dark and lonely place." 5 months after his disappearance, Henry wrote to his father from a fort in Columbus, OH: "I hate to tell you what I am at, for I know it will grieve you and I am sorry, but can not alter it now." He had enlisted into the Army on a dare, and soon regretted his choice: "A man stands a very slim chance to get through with five years on the front." He later admitted (19 November) that continuous heavy drinking led to his rash decision. September found him in Montana; he would spend most of the next 18 months based out of Fort Assiniboine near the Canadian border. 18 letters are written from various locations in Montana during this period, and include frequent discussion of Hubman's great discomfort with American Indians. On 15 September 1881 he wrote "While laying on the river bank fishing . . . I felt a hand on my sholder and heard a grunt. Looking up I saw the uglist Soux that you can imagine. I jumpt about ten feet and done some of the livelest running I ever did till I came to the boat, the boys say I was as white as a sheet." On 1 October, he told his brother "We have lots of the ugly cusses all around us. They are about as mean and dirty an animal as you can imagine and think no more of killing a white man or another Indian than you would of a fly. When they kill a soldier they eat his heart and liver, they say it makes them brave." 5 days later he was on the trail: "Father we are out on the Canadian line after 9000 Cree Indians. We are 200 strong and are now within 3 miles of them and are a going to pitch into them tomorrow morning. . . . Some Cree may want to send me to the Happy Hunting Ground but he will have to be sharper than I am. We have slept with 60 catridges around us and our gun along side of us for 4 days. The Crees came over here to fight the Assinobone Indians and made a mistake and killed a lot of white settlers on the Milk River." The prospect of torture haunted him, and he wrote on 27 December 1881: "I have studied medicine long enough to learn that cyanite of potasium is a very good feed, and I always keep some about me in case of capture by Indians, for I am not very brave and think I would flinch some if they began to skin me alive, which is one of their favorite amusements when they have prisoners." Wolves, grizzly bears, rattlesnakes, and buffalo are all encountered. On 1 March 1882, Hubman begs his father for assistance in escaping his military duty, and notes "I would rather take my chances at desertion than stay the balance of my 5 years in the Army." On 2 June he risked committing his plan to paper in a letter to his brother: "Two of the boys besides myself are going to try and make Canada after we are paid in September. It is pretty risky piece of Business as we have to go through 200 miles of hostile Cree Indian country, but I am willing to risk anything to get out of this hole." He enclosed a gift of moccasins (not included with this lot): "They belonged to the greatest foe of the white man in Montana, Two Bear by name. Keep them and whenever you look at them think of your unfortunate brother and try and shun his ways." His last letter from the service was dated 12 February 1883; research shows that he deserted on 1 June. The correspondence concludes with 15 letters written from Hubman's new home in Emerson, Manitoba, describing his new Canadian wife and their children, as well as the cold and poverty they endured, 1885-89. These letters are not quite as action-packed as the Montana letters, though on 11 July 1887 he notes that "the half-breeds north of us have murdered four settlers." The collection as a whole tells a dramatic Western story in vivid language; we can share only a tiny fraction here. Extensive notes on the Montana letters are available upon request.Read more

1662 HUGE FOLIOS Memoires of Duke of Sully France Henry IV + Rare Provenance
“A very valuable memoire of the history of the reign of Henry IV” Maximlien de Bethune was a 16th-century French statesman who was the first Duke of Sully. Most known for his service under Henry IV of France, Sully left a collection of memoirs which is now a valuable and important work on the history of France during the reign of Henry the Great. Even though ‘Memoires’ contains many fictitious stories, it is still recognized for its accuracy and portrayal of European royalty. The most controversial section of ‘Memoires’ is Sully’s vision of a utopian society designed for all of Europe. He envisioned a Christian republic that was governed by a ‘Very Christian Council’ in which all differences were resolved and a military was complete removed. Some scholars even claim that Sully’s plan helped establish what would become the current European Union. According to Tulard, this work is a “very valuable memoire of the history of the reign of Henry IV.” These four volumes are uniformly bound in beautiful leather, even though the four tomes are from two different printings (see below). $1,950.00 In stock Add to cart Free shipping wordwide!

[Spanish-American War Era Journal] Diary of Henry James Stevens...
[Spanish-American War Era Journal] Manuscript Diary of Henry James Stevens of Brooklyn NY and Edgewater NJ. 45.5 x 36 cm. Folio diary written on a contemporary "Sales Book". The outer cover of the book is heavily worn, with loss to the leather back and the paste boards. The front board is loose. Internally the book contains manuscript pages and ephemera, as well as a number of original drawings and a few paintings. The book was written by Henry James Stevens of 165 South 2nd St. Brooklyn, NY and primarily composed between 1897-1905. (A later section in a different hand writes about events in in 1941 and comments on the Second World War.) Interesting Spanish American War content. Stevens documents events of the day, including local railroad disasters and fires, as well as people who visited him and where he worked in New York. Much of the early pages show an interest in history, notably a long essay on the dedication of Grant's Monument in New York in 1897 as well as various essays on the relations Great Britain to America. Interestingly, Stevens' first Cousin, George Brosnan visits him in 1897. A year later George, then a Marine Corps private serving on the USS Maine, is blown up when the ship explodes under suspicious circumstances (George is listed under the list of casualties for the U.S.S. Maine). Stevens records George's death and the family's notification by the War Department. Another cousin, also named George W. Brosnan served with Company G, 9th Massachusetts in a number of battles. Stevens records George W.'s death due to fever later in 1898. Additional events recorded: the declaration of War against Spain by McKinley, battles in Puerto Rico, conquest of Cuba, the death of Queen Victoria, the assassination of President McKinley, the inauguration of Theodore Roosevelt, an account of the Japanese fleet of Admiral Togo and its success in the Russo-Japanese War, etc. Stevens includes numerous hand written poems, some copied, some perhaps of his own. One notable period piece is a song of "Yankee Dewey," referring to Admiral Dewey. Stevens' journal increasingly turns to the idea of military service. One of the most interesting elements of the journal is the evolution of Stevens' thinking and interest in serving his country. The start of his journal contains hand drawn and hand-colored warships he witnessed in Brooklyn. He eventually decides to become an American soldier and joins the 47th Regiment NGSNY, Hospital Corps in 1901. He serves in the Hospital Corps for a 5 year term and lists his various postings, the roster of the men in his regiment, and numerous hand drawn regimental emblems. Featured family members: Daniel Henry James Stevens; Henry James Stevens, Nora Stevens. This is an oversized or heavy book, which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.Read more

1628 Medicine & Anatomy of Andre Du Laurens Henry IV Goiter Tuberculosis 2in1
Andre du Laurens was a French physician primarily known for his ‘History of Anatomy’. As the personal physician to Marie de Medici and King Henry IV, du Laurens composed many of his treatises on medicine, most of which went through many variations and editions. He wrote extensively on tuberculosis and the lymph nodes of the neck, a disease that was very common during his time. Du Laurens wrote how the ‘King’s Evil’ couldn’t simply be cured by a ‘royal touch’ even though King Henry IV would regularly touch those inflicted with disease in hopes of curing them. Garrison-Morton also claims that Du Laurens provided one of the earliest records of the goiter, which he maintained as a contagious ailment. This rare 1628 printing of the works of Du Laurens was published by Durand and incorporates both volumes in one fine tome.

(WEST.) Photographs and programs from the career of John Henry Boutcher Cody
(WEST.) Photographs and programs from the career of John Henry Boutcher Cody, a Buffalo Bill protégé. 17 items: 9 photographs, 7 programs, and a newspaper featuring his obituary; some wear. Vp, circa 1910-1939 Estimate $300 - 400 John Henry Boutcher (1858-1939) of Boscombe and Bournemouth, England bore an uncanny resemblance to the western celebrity William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody (1846-1917), which he cultivated in his dress and grooming. He assumed the surname Cody and passed it on to his children. If his obituary and the notes on these photographs are to be believed, he was Buffalo Bill's "descendant," went to California as a young man, fought Indians, served as Buffalo Bill's understudy, and organized his own Wild West show. While we are highly skeptical of some of these claims, the programs offered here show that he did make appearances when Buffalo Bill's Wild West toured England; several promise that the shows will be "demonstrated and introduced by J. Cody."Read more

Ten line letter written by English reformer Henry Vincent while on tour in America, March 1865, espousing anti-slavery beliefs through public lecture. In this letter, Vincent is trying to tactfully suggest his availability to lecture further into the month of May and asks his recipient to contact him at his present address in Richmond, Indiana. By 1865, when this letter was written, Henry Vincent (1813-1878) had long been established as a radical. As early as the 1830s he was involved in radical circles and became a very successful lecturer. ODNB does not mention Vincent being in America in 1865, but states: "His strong advocacy of the north in the American Civil War made him a welcome visitor when he arrived in the United States. He made lecturing tours in September 1866, October 1867, the winter of 1869, and again in the winter of 1875-6. On all these occasions he was enthusiastically received."Read more

1834 North America Voyages CUBA Indians Salem Witchcraft Henry...
1834 North America Voyages CUBA Indians Salem Witchcraft Henry Tudor SIGNED Henry Tudor was a 19th-century English lawyer who embarked on a tour on North America and the Caribbean islands in 1831. Per Hough, Tudor had no apparent object to fulfill in this voyage beyond personal observation, so his records were made with impartial fairness. This work describes geographic interests of North American countryside, customs and clothing in cities such as New York, encountering Indian tribes and villages, and a description of Cuba and Havana. However, this book, Narrative of a Tour has an interesting section on Salem and its notoriety for witchcraft. In this chapter Tudor gives an account of the effects of witches on the town, prisons, and even the existing crime. According to Howes, Travels extended from Maine to Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio and Louisiana; Americans are defended from Trollopian accusations. Item number: #4536 Price: $499 Note: Signed by The Author The signature on the dedication after the title page corroborates this as it also, The Author.
