In excellent condition with light toning along the left margin outside of the image area. An impression from the regular edition of 120 printed by Frederick Reynolds. <br /> <br /> Fletcher 189. Paper: Arms was typical of the artists of this period - he was obsessed with paper a mania for collecting paper that could/would improve an edition. The quantity he left after his death distributed by his wife to fellow artists witnesses his love for finely made paper -paper interesting because of texture color distinctive weave. The earliest paper known to have been used by Arms came from a Baptismal Register Kirchen Ordnung The Reformed Church Middletown Dauphin County Pennsylvania 1708 bought in a bookshop in Philadelphia. His early prints 1915-1919 evidence paper taken from old books with gilded edges. Some prints appear on stationary from the Cisalpine Napoleonic Italy still bearing the estampe of the office or department; others carry penned ink page numbers taken from old ledgers of the Eighteenth Century-all beautiful shades of grey blue and green handmade ribbed and otherwise. Some of his color aquatints were printed on full sheets of heavy chine or Japanese vellum giving a sense of luxury in the richness of the stock and the width of the margins. There was a myriad of modern papers gleaned in England France Italy and the United States. <br /> <br /> -William Dolan Fletcher A Man For All Times p. 15. unknown

DJ is in a plastic sleeve. Minor edge soiling. Signed with sentiment by the author on page facing title page. Notation reads. With best wishes William T. Arms. Historical fiction set in Massachusetts during the French and Indian Wars. Salute to Courage is an exciting action story that mirrors the struggles of the pioneer settlers on the New England frontier during the final decade of the French and Indian wars. The major war events introduced in this work include Braddock's Defeat the Fall of Fort William Henry the capture of Louisburg of Fort Duquesne of Ticonderoga and of Quebec all show the influence of each of these events on the lives of the frontiersmen in their isolated stockaded forts. Colonel Ephraim William Lord Jeffrey Amherst Robert Rogers all appear in this work as does Abigail Crouch. William Tyler "Billy" Arms was born in 1904 in Deerfield and died in 1970. William's varied career began as a columnist for the New York Times. He later worked for the Foreign Broadcast Intelligence Service. His publications include The History of Leyden Massachusetts 1676-1959 1959 and Salute to Courage 1966. The French and Indian War 1754-1763 was a theater of the Seven Years' War which pitted the North American colonies of the British Empire against those of the French each side being supported by various Native American tribes. At the start of the war the French colonies had a population of roughly 60000 settlers compared with 2 million in the British colonies. The outnumbered French particularly depended on their native allies. Two years into the French and Indian War in 1756 Great Britain declared war on France beginning the worldwide Seven Years' War. Many view the French and Indian War as being merely the American theater of this conflict; however in the United States the French and Indian War is viewed as a singular conflict which was not associated with any European war. French Canadians call it the guerre de la Conquête 'War of the Conquest'. The British Pitt government fell due to disastrous campaigns in 1757 including a failed expedition against Louisbourg and the Siege of Fort William Henry; this last was followed by the Natives torturing and massacring their colonial victims. William Pitt came to power and significantly increased British military resources in the colonies at a time when France was unwilling to risk large convoys to aid the limited forces that they had in New France preferring to concentrate their forces against Prussia and its allies who were now engaged in the Seven Years' War in Europe. Between 1758 and 1760 the British military launched a campaign to capture French Canada. They succeeded in capturing territory in surrounding colonies and ultimately the city of Quebec 1759. The following year the British were victorious in the Montreal Campaign in which the French ceded Canada in accordance with the Treaty of Paris 1763. France also ceded its territory east of the Mississippi to Great Britain as well as French Louisiana west of the Mississippi River to its ally Spain in compensation for Spain's loss to Britain of Spanish Florida. Spain had ceded Florida to Britain in exchange for the return of Havana Cuba. France's colonial presence north of the Caribbean was reduced to the islands of Saint Pierre and Miquelon confirming Great Britain's position as the dominant colonial power in northern America.
