A SCARCE AND IMPORTANT FIRST EDITION SCARCE IN ANY STATE AND THIS AN EXTRAORDINARY COPY. Mercer's ‘Journal’ is an important source for historians of the Waterloo campaign as well as a detailed description of the landscape and people of Belgium and France in the early 19th century. It is one of the few accounts of the period written by an artillery officer. Mercer’s journals were kept throughout the campaign of 1815 but were not published until 1870 after his death. The work was compiled and written in its finished form some 30 years earlier from the original notes Mercer wrote contemporaneously with additions and verifications from correspondence and other sources. It covers the period from April 1815 to January 1816. Although he eventually rose to the rank of general his fame is as commander of the British G Troop Royal Horse Artillery in the thick of the fighting at the Battle of Waterloo. It is also notable for its lengthy descriptions of the countryside and its people.<br> In spite of his position with the British Army the work is usually found in 20th Century editions in French. Its historical value in the English-speaking nations was largely overlooked till its rediscovery with a Praeger edition in 1970. William Blackwood and Sons hardcover

1688Rare explanatory guide to Jan Willem Pienemans celebrated painting of the Battle of Waterloo published shortly after the Napoleonic Wars for visitors viewing the monumental canvas. The work is an important document of early nineteenth-century historical memory and Dutch national identity surrounding the victory over Napoleon and the role of the Prince of Orange at Waterloo.Original blue paper binding with smudges octavo edition 18 x 11 cm. NL Zeldzame beschrijvende uitgave bij het beroemde panoramische schilderij van de Slag bij Waterloo door Jan Willem Pieneman uitgegeven te Amsterdam omstreeks 1825 door C.A. Spin. Het werk diende als gids of toelichting voor bezoekers van het monumentale historiestuk dat kort na de Napoleontische oorlogen grote publieke belangstelling trok. Het schilderij was langere tijd een van de belangrijkste werken van het Museum van Levende Nederlandsche Meesters in Haarlem. In 1885 werd het overgebracht naar het indertijd nieuw opgerichte Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Daar is het met zijn afmetingen van ruim vijf bij acht meter het grootste schilderij van de collectie. Het schilderij hangt permanent opgesteld in de Waterloozaal op de eerste verdieping.Jan Willem Pieneman 17791853 behoort tot de belangrijkste Nederlandse historieschilders van de negentiende eeuw. Zijn enorme doek De Slag bij Waterloo voltooid in de jaren 1820 verbeeldt het beslissende moment waarop de Prins van Oranje gewond raakt tijdens de slag van 18 juni 1815. Het schilderij groeide uit tot een nationaal icoon van de Nederlandse bijdrage aan de nederlaag van Napoleon.Dergelijke beschrijvingen werden verkocht aan bezoekers van tentoonstellingen en bevatten doorgaans een uitleg van de afgebeelde figuren militaire posities en historische gebeurtenissen op het doek. Ze vormen interessante voorbeelden van vroege negentiende-eeuwse kunst- en tentoonstellingscultuur in Nederland. Napoleon Bonaparte. unknown

At the time this photo was shot there was a concerted push by business leaders and local citizenry pushing for an electric excursion train to the Waterloo Falls 1889-1890 along the South Santiam River as seen by articles published periodically in the Lebanon Express newspaper. The image is a striking shot with the band members and family members strewn about seated on the rocks next to the river during late Spring runoff and the Falls.
