2081First edition. Framed photograph. Very Good. MAGNIFICENT LARGE ALBUMEN PHOTOGRAPH OF ULYSSES S. GRANT BY ABRAHAM BOGARDUS. An unusually large late c.1880 photograph of Grant post-presidency in formal dress sitting and in partial profile. Mounted on thick card with the photographer's credit and address "A. Bogardus / 872 Broadway NY" on matte below the photo. The photographer Anthony Bogardus was a photographic pioneer described by the New York Times as "the best-known photographer in the United States" in his prime who took "the first photographs of Gen. Grant Gen. Hancock Samuel D. Morse inventor of the telegraph; Horace Greeley Henry Ward Beecher and other equally well-known men." The engravers Currier & Ives produced an engraving based on this photograph calling it "the last and best taken of General Grant".

187255322Washington D.C.: United States Government Printing Office 1872. First edition. Softcover. vg. Octavo. 14pp. No wrappers with printed text starting on the first page.<br /> <br /> The printed text date May 14th 1872 relays an official Executive Communication from U.S President Ulysses S. Grant granting the United States Senate's Committee on Foreign Relations' previous request for information concerning the ongoing persecution of Jews in Romania and authorizing the transfer of said information from the U.S. State Department. The information here remitted to the Senate consists of a series of 14 pieces of correspondence dated October 6th 1871 - May 13th 1872 between the then U.S Consul to Romania Benjamin F. Piexotto 1834-1890 Second Assistant Secretary of State William Hunter Jr. 1805-1886 and U.S Secretary of State Hamilton Fish 1808-1893. The initial sections include the President's order the Secretary of State's introductory statement and a full list of correspondences included in chronological order.<br /> <br /> In the 1860s and 70s - following newly established autonomy from the Ottoman empire the unification of the Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia and the ascendancy of the newly elected Prince Domnitor Alexandru Ioan Cuza - Romania saw a new extreme wave of anti-Semitic measures laws and attitudes. At the prompting of their respective Jewish citizens a number of countries in the international community voiced their opposition to these developments and sought to put pressure on the new Romanian government. In 1870 the United States entered the fray with the appointment of Jewish-American lawyer Benjamin F. Piexotto 1834-1890 as the new American consul in Bucharest. <br /> <br /> Piexotto served in Romania from 1871-1876 and was able to improve the conditions for Romania Jews during his tenure. He promoted the ideas of the Haskalah The Jewish Enlightenment and modernization to the community and among his numerous endeavors was responsible for improvements in modern Jewish education through the establishment of the Society for the culture of the Israelites in Roumania Societate Pentra Cultura Israelit Romania. Piexotto also funded the Roumänische Post in an effort to combat anti-Semitism in the Romanian Press. Ultimately his efforts are credited for strengthening Jewish community structures in the country and ultimately laying the groundwork for eventual Jewish emancipation as allowed for in the provisions of the 1878 Treaty of Berlin. <br /> <br /> Minor age toning and smudges to pages throughout. In overall very good condition. Protected in modern mylar.

"The marginal annotation of this edition has been undertaken with a view to supplementing the personal narrative by references not only to some of the books with which the author refreshed his memory before entering upon and during his autobiographical labors but also to a limited extent to works in which fuller details may be found concerning incidents which were necessarily briefly treated by General Grant either by reason of his own connections with the action being limited to a small details as in some of the Mexican War scenes or on account of the haste with which the first edition of the book was perforce completed." --Frederick D. Grant Preface to the Second Edition.Frederick Dent Grant 1850-1912 was the eldest son of Ulysses S. Grant. / "Books reviews pamphlets etc. cited in the marginal annotation to this edition": v. 1 p. xviii-xix. ¶ Ulysses S. Grant 1822-1885 stands as a pivotal figure in American history known for his roles as a Union general during the Civil War and the 18th President of the United States. Born Hiram Ulysses Grant in Ohio he entered the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and served with distinction in the Mexican-American War. During the Civil War Grant's strategic acumen and tenacity led to key victories including the capture of Vicksburg a turning point in the war. His success on the battlefield led to his appointment as Commanding General in 1864 and he accepted the surrender of Confederate General Robert E. Lee at Appomattox in 1865 effectively ending the Civil War. Grant's presidency 1869-1877 was marked by efforts to ensure civil rights for newly freed African Americans including the enforcement of Radical Reconstruction in the South and the passage of the Fifteenth Amendment granting African American men the right to vote. His administration faced challenges including an economic depression and accusations of corruption. In his later years Grant penned his memoirs which have been praised for their insight and literary style. Despite the controversies of his presidency Grant is often celebrated for his unwavering commitment to equality and his military leadership during one of the most tumultuous periods in American history." --Bing. ¶ Guerre du Mexique 1846-1848 -- Récits personnels.
