19035696Berkeley California: The Church; Printed by thePress of Standard Publishing Company 1903. Octavo 23.25 x 14 cm. iv 171 i pages. Advertisements. Index. Evident first edition but subsequent to an 1884 publication with different subtitle author statement and publisher. A generous church cookbook with seven hundred recipes; noteworthy among them: Squash Muffins Celery Root and Hearts of Artichoke Mussel Bordelaise Clam Patties Spanish Meat Pie Coffee Fruit Cake Lemon Cocoanut Cake Cookies with Sherry Monterey Pudding Gooseberry Pudding Pineapple Blanc-Mange Strawberry Mousse. ~ Congregationalists answered the call from President Daniel Coit Gilman 1831-1908 of the University of California to build a hall and organize a fellowship of moral vision within reach of the campus community. The "local church" emphasis of Congregationalist governance had already attracted the largest Protestant presence in San Francisco. After ten years of planning members of Berkeley First Congregational were called to new quarters by a recently cast bell on 30 September 1884 at the corner of Durant Avenue and Dana Street. Thus the early version of The Berkeley Cook Book subtitled A Collection of Choice and Tested Recipes celebrated the dedication of the 1884 church while its younger sibling of 1903 would have appeared in time to honor the building's twentieth anniversary. ~ In another twenty years they would move again to a grander brick complex on Channing Way still only a few city blocks from campus designed by the Bay Area architect Horace Gardner Simpson. It served successive generations for ninety years but in September 2016 was gutted by fire and the building's fate is undetermined as of this writing. ~ Clean and bright.

19598561bdWashington DC: The American Ordnance Association 1959. Tall octavo paperbound stiff navy blue stapled wrappers uncut 32 pp. From Foreword: The American Ordnance Association takes pride in presenting this precis the second in a series of monographs on the armament used in the American Civil War. The strategy and tactics of that conflict can be understood in their true light only when the capabilities and limitations of thefighting equipment are known. As far as ammunition is concerned the great complexity of the subject can only be appreciated by students of the many battels who try to identify some specimen offered for inspection. Practically all of the thousands of books that have been written about the American Civil War treat it from the Adjutant General’s point of view -- a concern with personnel -- or from the eminence of the strategist and tactician. Students and historians of the conflict have found no convenient source for official descriptions of the weapons their ammunition or performance.

19618559bdWashington DC: The American Ordnance Association 1961. Tall octavo paperbound stiff stapled tan wrappers uncut 31 pp. Fine. From Foreword: Several years before the hundredth anniversary of the American Civil War the American Ordnance Association planned a series of monographs on the weapons of that conflict. The project has a twofold purpose. First to commemorate the event in some unique but appropriate way; secondly to make available to students of the Civil War authentic data on the characteriestics of the weapons with which the battles of that war were fought. The present work is devoted to cavalry weapons -- and with good purpose. As all students of strategy and tactics know the Civil War was an historic example of mobility reconnaissance and fast maneuver. Many of its battles rank in history as classical examples which have been used as guides by military leaders of all nations. In no area is this more cogent than that of cavalry tactics. Those tactics were dependent not only upon the skill of the cavalry commander the bravery of the individual cavalryman and the condition of his mount but also upon the capabilities of the wapons with which the units were equipped. Thus a knowledge of the military characterisitcs of the cavalry weapons of the time is essential to a proper appraisal of the decisions of cavalry commanders and the outcome of those decisions. In this respect the military characteristics of all wapons of all battles of all wars are basic elements in appraising the final outcome. It has been so in all history; it was especially so in the cavalry engagements of the American Civil War. The American Ordnance Association, 1961. unknown books

The rise and fall of British Empiricism is philosophy's most dramatic example of pushing premises to their logical--and fatal--conclusions. Born in 1690 with the appearance of Locke's Essay Empiricism flourished as the reigning school until 1739 when Hume's Treatise strangled it with its own cinctures after a period of Berkeley's optimistic idealism. The Empiricists collects the key writings on this important philosophy perfect for those interested in learning about this movement with just one book. Anchor Books paperback books
