How The War Commenced And How Near It Is Ended

1864377693New York: National Union Executive Committee 1864. Broadside illustrated with a map. 18-1/8x11-1/2 inches. Old folds. Broadside illustrated with a map. 18-1/8x11-1/2 inches. A cartographically illustrated broadside produced in support of Abraham Lincoln in the 1864 election against the claims of the Peace Democrats. The map depicts the southern states with the Confederate regions in black and the Union-held areas in gray. The text of the broadside which refutes the anti-Lincoln claims of the Copperheads concludes: "We have shown unmistakably who commenced the war. It must be apparent to all that the Government has thus far a decided and prepondering advantage. The end cannot be doubtful. They who violated the Divine Law have incurred the penalty and will inevitably meet the allotted punishment. They who took the sword are perishing by the sword.".

Heroic Deeds of Noble Master Masons During the Civil War From 1861 to 1865 in the U.S.A.

191634332Pueblo CO: The Franklin Press. 1916. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. This volume written by Jewella Civil War soldier had started the process of becoming a Mason but was interrupted two weeks later by joining the Union army in 1862. After serving in the winter of 1865/66 he became Master Mason. The book contains the stories of soldiers who when captured by the Confederates or the Federal Army once they were known to be a Mason were treated as brothers and well cared for. Cleary Jewell had solicited these stories as they are mostly signed by the former soldier/Mason who experienced these considerations. The book also contains a brief autobiography of Jewell as well as some thoughts on Masonry war and related subjects. The Masonry scholar Michael A Halleran wrote in the journal "Heredom" suggesting the Masonry affiliation aided prisoners on both sides of the conflict. Jewell's book is considered one of the earliest works addressing the Freemasonry's role in the Civil War though Halleran does criticize it for being "anecdotal." See volume 15 2007 of "Heredom." The book is near fine with a few small spots on the front board. Extremely scarce.; Small 8vo 7½" - 8" tall; 127 pp . The Franklin Press hardcover

Panoramic Photograph of the 317th Engineer’s Band at Camp Sherman Ohio May 15 1918

1918List1733Ohio 1918. Silver gelatin photograph in glass-fronted frame image measures 24 ¼ x 6 ⅞ inches. Matted and framed not examined out of frame. The 317th Engineer’s Band was a part of the 317th Engineer Regiment an element of the 92nd Division which was composed of over 15000 African-American soldiers from across the country. The 92nd was one of two African-American regiments to fight in the war the other being the 93rd and was unique in that it was under the command of the United States. The 317th Engineer Regiment was organized in November 1917 at Camp Sherman Ohio several months before this photograph was taken and saw action in Europe as part of the 92nd. Camp Sherman was the third largest training camp in the country at the time with over 2000 buildings capable of housing 40000 men and 12000 horses. As well as being the training site for units of the 92nd also known as the Buffalo Division it served as the training site entire 83rd 84th 95th and 96th divisions. It later became a trade school. The 317th Engineer’s Band performed locally around Chillicothe and at other military functions eventually becoming known according to a contemporary newspaper account as one of the best bands in the army. They traveled to Indianapolis to perform in March of 1918. A New York Times article from 1918 mentions them briefly and describes them as ‘famous’ but does not elaborate. They performed at the ‘Colored Club’ in Chillicothe a social club for African-American servicemen in a converted hotel. We find no other record of this image. unknown

Union Volunteers Refreshment Saloon

186122953Showing Union troops arriving in Philadelphia from New Jersey via ferry and marching in formation towards the Union Volunteer Refreshment Saloon cheered on by Philadelphians. Text at the bottom lists members of the committee and men willing to accept donations for the saloon. This image became a choice souvenir for soldiers passing through Philadelphia. CIVIL WAR.Print. Union Volunteers Refreshment Saloon of Philadelphia. James Queen delineator and lithographer. Philadelphia: Thomas Sinclair 1861. In period frame 35 x 29 in. Historical BackgroundThe Union Volunteer Refreshment Saloon was organized in South Philadelphia in 1861 by grocer Barzilla S. Brown. He began informally distributing food to Union troops traveling through Philadelphia an important rail and steamer hub. The relief effort became official on May 27 1861. The saloon provided soldiers with food drink stamps and paper and offered traveling troops a place to rest. This initial effort differed in some ways from the later Sanitary Fairs that contributed to the care of sick and wounded soldiers. At this point the civilian members were catering to the needs of healthy new recruits.In September the Refreshment Saloon added a hospital to aid sick and wounded troops. The saloon supported itself through donations of food clothing cash and later through admission cost to view the Confederate navy vessel Ram which was captured in 1863. After providing social and medical services for four years the saloon closed in late 1865.James Fuller Queen 1820-1886 apprenticed to learn lithographic draftsmanship. He drew a large variety of lithographs for large printing houses of Wagner & McGuigan Thomas Sinclair and P. S. Duval. He drew views of buildings cities scenic attractions newsworthy events portraits sheet music covers diplomas illustrations for magazines and other images. He also became an outstanding chromolithographer. His view of the "Union Volunteer Refreshment Saloon" is one of Queen's most complex works and perhaps the one for which he is best known. He later drew the United States Sanitary Commission Fair in Philadelphia.Thomas S. Sinclair c. 1805-1881 was born in the Orkney Islands of Scotland and studied lithography in Edinburgh and other cities. He started his own printing firm in Philadelphia in 1838. He was among the first in Philadelphia to experiment with color lithography. From 1854 to 1859 his brother joined him in the firm of Thomas Sinclair & Co. Later his son worked with him in Thomas Sinclair & Son. He published three different hand-colored lithographs by Queen of Brown's Refreshment Saloon and its friendly rival William M. Cooper's Cooper Shop Volunteer Refreshment Saloon in 1861. Thomas Sinclair

Civil War New York New York's 11th Mounted Cavalry Nicol RB. R. B.ABAA

Mounted Riflemen. Composed by R.B. Nicol for Swain's Regt. Volunteer Cavalry. Recruitment Broadside

1860LIST026New York: Jackson 1860. First Edition. An unrecorded recruitment broadside for the 11th New York Cavalry. Col. James Swain led the regiment which was first organized on Staten Island in late 1861. Most troops came from New York City the site of robust recruitment in the early years of the conflict largely from Irish and German immigrants. The regiment saw service throughout the South. The verse in small part: "Must our nation to the rebels yield or vainly call for aid / Our brethren now are in the field shall we keep in the shade. that our cause is just I hope and trust there are few who can but own / As if was the rebels raised this dust which we will soon put down. / Then if you wish to bear a hand you might not have again / A chance to join a chosen band of Mounted Riflemen." We find no record of the verse's author R.B. Nicol. Curiously though this broadside is unrecorded a broadside with the same song was published in Washington D.C. by G.F. Hardwick in 1864. A very good copy well preserved with some light creasing and hints of foxing. Jackson unknown books

Dakota War of 1862ABAA

Execution of the Thirty-eight Sioux Indians at Mankato December 26 1862

18831295Milwaukee 1883. Good. Chromolithograph 16 x 19.75 inches. Lightly backed repairs to small losses at edges and corners. Lower edge with several closed tears not affecting image; paper a bit crisp. Later color added to flags. Chromolithograph depicting the public execution of thirty-eight Dakota Indians following the end of the Dakota War of 1862. The image shows the city square in Mankato Minnesota with a gallows in the center ringed by soldiers on foot and horseback; large civilian crowds gather around behind to watch the hanging. The Sioux Uprising or Dakota War was a series of attacks on white settlers in western Minnesota in the second half of 1862. Angered by a series of treaty violations and other injustices over the course of the 1850s the Dakota Indians decided to conduct a series of violent raids against white settlers after a small party of Dakota Indians attacked a white settlement on August 17 1862. The result was hundreds of white casualties as well as numerous native dead. By the end of the year the U.S. Army had rounded up more than a thousand Dakota; after a trial in which 300 braves were condemned President Lincoln commuted all but thirty-eight of the sentences resulting in the largest mass execution in U.S. history. This lithograph was issued twenty years later perhaps as an odd commemoration piece.

Signal Corps units accompanied U.S. troops from the beginning of U.S. operations abroad but they did not have a major presence until later in the war.Some of the Signal Corps photography units were assigned to combat areas others to communications zones. Those photographers stationed in forward areas received two sorts of orders: a general assignment to cover an operation such as an assault on an island or a town and a specific assignment such as to record the effect of enemy tank-destroyer fire on friendly tanks. The photographs these units produced were put to many uses: tactical for immediate use in the theaters; strategic for use in planning; training or the instruction of troops; intelligence for reconnaissance; technical for the improvement of equipment; and historical for future study.

World War I Soldier's Photograph Album Showing Battlefield Destruction Allied Armies and Civilian Life in France 1915-1918

1915200651915. World War I photograph albums created by soldiers and travelers often juxtapose the brutality of industrial warfare with scenes of civilian life and personal travel revealing how participants understood the global conflict unfolding around them. This album of approximately 101 photographs dating from roughly 1915 to 1918 documents both the European theater of World War I and an extraordinary American automobile journey from San Francisco to Washington D.C. The images capture the material culture of early twentieth century mobility the devastation of trench warfare in France and the civilian landscapes through which soldiers and travelers moved during the war years. Together they form a visual narrative of a world simultaneously engaged in modern leisure travel and mechanized global conflict. Photograph album containing approximately 101 photographs measuring roughly 3 x 2 inches to 4.5 x 6.5 inches including albumen prints silver gelatin prints and sepia toned photographs many with captions written in white ink directly on the prints. Early images document an automobile expedition labeled "Automobile Camping Trip San Francisco to Washington DC" with the additional caption "Approx. 4000 miles in 27 days" showing touring cars modified for long distance travel with seats folded down and bedding arranged inside the vehicles. Several photographs feature family members identified in French captions including an albumen portrait reading "Suzane et Jeane Vincent 'a leur grand ami" as well as group photographs labeled the "Cateret Family" depicting picnics garden scenes lakeside outings and automobile travel in Europe. Wartime images depict the destructive landscape of the Western Front including a trench scene captioned "After a Yank barrage 1800 Boches deads near Soissons" a photograph labeled "Bombarded house Grandpre 1917" showing a destroyed structure with smoke rising from the rubble and views of Belleau Wood. Additional photographs document military technology and battlefield operations including German artillery German observation balloons anti aircraft guns camouflaged British tanks captured artillery pieces wrecked airplanes and soldiers in formation. One photograph depicts German Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg pointing toward a soldier. Several images show supply depots in France during 1918 as well as groups of Allied soldiers in camps and on maneuver. The album concludes with portraits of children and family members visually contrasting the domestic life of civilians with the devastation of the European battlefields recorded earlier in the volume. The presence of both American and European subjects reflects the international dimension of World War I which drew soldiers civilians and travelers into a shared landscape shaped by mechanized warfare and unprecedented global mobility. Approximately 101 photographs mounted in an album with manuscript captions. Album binding remains tight with minor wear along edges; photographs clear and well preserved with only light handling wear. Overall condition very good. unknown

1896 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARY - REMINISCENCES OF THE CIVIL WAR RECORDED WHILE AT THE 30th ANNUAL GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC G.A.R. ENCAMPMENT BY TWENTY 20 MEMBERS OF THE SPRINGFIELD MASSACHUSETTS CONTINGENT

1896000536National Encampment G.A.R. Springfield MA Massachu 1896. handwritten diary titled Reminiscences of the National Encampment G.A.R at Saint Paul Minnesota Sept. 1896. It was written by one of twenty members of the Springfield Massachusetts contingent who traveled to the 30th annual encampment. The beginning of the diary details the trip and the men in blue on the trains and the rest tells of events at the encampment but most importantly the talks were recorded of battles that many of theses men engaged in. Here some snippets: The Mass. Dept Headquarters were assigned at the Hotel Windsor and the Wilcox Post of Springfield Mass including the few veterans of other immediate posts membering about 20 occupied 2 rooms at the Commanders High School Building situated at the corner of East 10th and Minnesota streets with convientely located the latter within a stones throw of the great auditorium and but a sling shot from the city Capitol Building. Here we found our meals provided for us and fairly ample accommodations. To give the greater emphasis to the final story he related let me premise by saying that it was General Longstreet whom commanded the 18000 men to whom Pickett and Pettigrew looked for his assenting nod in the final awful charge was made up the fields of Gettysburg and Longstreets men were those who shot off the leg of General Sickles on the eventful July day in the year of our Lord 1863. Well it was not very long since upon the occasion of a convention of the GAR in the south that Sickles was cordially invited to pay him a visit to be the guest of Longstreet at his Georgia home. The commanders learning of his whereabouts sent a messenger inviting him to come to the convention to make them a speech. Sickles declined.It is estimated that fully 200000 visitors witnessed the great procession. The sidewalks were densely packed the steps doors and stairways and windows were over crowded and numerous temporary platforms were filled to overflowing.Another beautiful sight on the route was the so called living Flag consisting of lasses dressed in red white and blue and so arranged in position as to present the Star Spangled Banner.Another Camp Fire was arranged to be held at the Auditorium at 8 oclock and it was in honor of the ex-prisoners of war. There are thirteen handwritten pages each measuring about 5.5 x 8.5. The writing is small as if to get as much onto a page as possible but it is mostly legible. An interesting diary written by a Union veteran of the Civil War. For the most part in good shape One oversize page has a chipped/rough edge but no loss. The original envelope that accompanies the diary sheets is present but in rough shape. Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Manuscript. unknown

JUDAISM IN A WAR-TORN WORLD [EARLY USE OF THE TERM HOLOCAUST]

No Date (1941). 1st edition, original wrappers, 8vo. 12 pages. Almost certainly published in 1941, as the Rabbinical Association was founded in 1901 and this booklet is From the presidential message delivered at the 40th Annual Convention of the Rabbinical Assembly of America- Detroit, Michigan. Arzt says, The moral re-awakening of America will be tremendously enhanced by tangible acts of sympathy and succor for the innocent victims of the holocaust across the seas. The Jews of America must, with increasing generosity and self-sacrifice, contribute of their means for the maintenance of the overseas program of relief. Our suffering brethren in war torn Europe will continue to hope against hope, if our thoughts, our prayers and our united efforts will be with them and for them. The religious forces in America should champion legislation for the suspension of all restrictive legislation to make possible the immediate admission of children from Europe for the duration of the war. Millions of Americans will eagerly offer the hospitality of their homes for these unfortunates. The arrival of a huge expeditionary army of little ones to these shores will immediately fortify our spirit and will generate in us a spirit of selflessness and sacrifice which will enable us to face the future with courage and confidence.

1st edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo, 4-8 pages each. Conservative Jewish men's group newsletter from the Holocaust period from the the second synagogue founded in New York (1825) and the third-oldest Ashkenazi synagogue in the United States. "The object of the 'Tattler' will be to provide the members with a regular source of information and entertainment....The Pogroms in Russia during the Czarist regime or the activities of the Zionist movement in recent years had no such effect on the consciousness of the average American Jew except to stir a sense of pity and sympathy for the afflicted ones. But the cruel, heartless persecutions of the Jews in Germany by Hitler and his crew, caused a stirring in the blood of Native Americans of Jewish birth that made them turn about and recall the religion of their fathers and the God of Israel. We of The Men's Club of the Congregation B'nai Jeshurun welcome with open arms all those who are returning to the fold." Most issues include commentary on the increasing oppression of the Jews in Germany; other issues discussed include some current Jewish news, some retelling of Jewish history, congregation news, editorials, fun facts, jokes with lessons.
