The commanding Officer wishes to thank officers and men for the cordial support and assistance which they have given him.

1847G456Sevilla, Imprenta de D. Carlos Santigosa, editor, 1847. In-8, (1) f. blanc-XIII[dont faux-titre et titre]-(1)-360 pp., demi-chagrin poli vert très foncé, dos lisse estampé à froid, palettes en tête et en queue, titre, dorés, papier de couvrure gaufré, orné de motifs floraux ( reliure de l’époque ; traces de frottements sur les coupes ; à l’intérieur, quelques rares rousseurs ; assez bel exemplaire). ÉDITION ORIGINALE ? : on trouve parfois la mention d’une édition parue en 1845 (in content.library.pdx.edu), il semble que celle de 1847 soit bien l’E.O. ; une « segunda edicion » paraîtra la même année , chez le même éditeur, même pagination, page de titre refaite. LES « ACTEURS » : à tout saigneur, tout honneur. Pedro (Burgos, 1334-Montiel, 1369) était le seul fils légitime d’Alphonse XI, Le Juste (Salamanca, 1311-Gibraltar, 1350), et de Marie –Constance (1313-Evora, 1357), fille d’Alphonse IV de Portugal. Ce mariage politique et forcé n’était pas heureux ; le gendre prit pour maîtresse Leonor de Guzman (Séville, 1310-Talavera de la Reina, 1351), jeune et jolie veuve , qui lui donna une ribambelle de bambins, dont Henri, comte de Trastamare (Séville, 1334- Santo Domingo de la Calzada, 1379). On ne faisait pas de vieux os dans la Sagrada Familia : 1350, Alphonse XI meurt de la peste à Gibraltar ; 1351, Léonor est torturée et assassinée grâce à Pedro ; 1357, La Reine Marie-Constance, assassinée, au choix, sur ordre de Pedro ? ou sur ordre de son propre père le roi du Portugal ? ; 1361, la Reine Blanche est assassinée sur ordre de son mari; 1369, Pedro, assassiné par son demi-frère Henri, qui devient illico roi de Castille ; surnommé « Le Magnifique », parfois « Le fratricide » ... qui finira empoisonné en 1379. . C’est la souche de la lignée royale des Trastamare, dans laquelle figureront Henri III « Le Maladif », puis Henri IV « L’Impuissant » qui ne fut pas roi de France…

18978946Chicago: A.C. McClurg and Company 1897. First edition. 8vo 442pp. Illustrated with 23 plates. Pages unopened. Finely bound in full brown crushed morocco elaborately gilt decorated borders with red accents and gilt dentelles with the Spanish royal coat-of-arms in gilt and red on both covers t.e.g. Rubbed along upper joint else a near fine copy. Bookplate of A.J. Cox to front pastedown. <br /> <br /> Really a nicely executed and elaborate binding of this text which relates some of the events leading up to the Spanish American War of 1898. Alfred J. Cox was a Chicago master book binder and collector and we would guess this book from a Chicago publisher was perhaps bound by Cox himself. It is listed in Catalogue of the Sumptuous 'Attic' Library of the late Alfred J.Cox which was sold at auction by the American Art Association in New York 1918. This title along with several others from the series by Latimer are listed as bound in full levant morocco in various colors #608. A nice example of American fine binding at the turn of the century.
