188011280Hillsboro Ohio: Highland News Office 1880. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good-. 12mo 290pp. The final section of the book has its own separate title page which reads: "The Escape and Re-Capture of Maj. J. A. Bering and Lieut. EW. J. Srofe with Prison Life at Camp Ford Texas from Oct. 12th 1864 to May 17th 1865." About very good in the publisher's reddish-brown cloth stamped in blind with gilt spine title. Boards mildly dust-soiled with some scuffing to the spine ends and a few small dings. The cheap paper stock is evenly age-toned and the front inner hinge is tender but holding. A presentation copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Bering on the front paste-down to a fellow soldier who endured some of the events described in the book: "Presented to J. L. Day in memory of the days spent together at Camp Ford Prison Texas by the author J. A. Bering. Lynchburg Ohio Nov 16 / 83." The previous owner almost certainly Day himself has marginally emphasized a few places in the prison narrative indicating situations that he either remembered or personally witnessed. The various companies of the 48th contain several soldiers with the last name day but no "J. L." We suspect that he must have belong to another unit which was being held at Camp Ford around the same time as the 48th Ohio. The 48th Ohio Infantry Regiment was initially organized in October of 1861 near Cincinnati and mustered out on May 10 1866. During the war the unit saw action at a number of key events including Shiloh Corinth Vicksburg and the Red River Campaign. The regiment was captured at the Battle of Mansfield also known as the Battle of Sabine Crossroads in April 1864. <br /> <br /> This regimental history is rare in the trade and significant not just for its detailed account of the unit but also for its account of a Confederate prison. The last copy we could trace in commerce was offered by Ernest Wessen in 1960 who described it as "quite rare." OCLC lists a healthy number of holdings however the records are hopelessly muddled with a number of digital-only holdings under the same accession number. <br /> <br /> A rare presentation copy of a very scarce Ohio regimental history important in any collection of Civil War unit histories.

His most notable achievements include commanding the British Eighth Army at the pivotal Battle of El Alamein in 1942 which marked a significant turning point in the North African campaign. Montgomery remained an influential figure in military history earning the title of Field Marshal Lord Montgomery of Alamein in 1946. He published several works on military strategy and leadership before retiring from public life in 1968.</p><p>In August 1942 Montgomery was named as the new commander of the British Eighth Army. After he assumed command he continued preparations for what promised to be a decisive battle with Erwin Rommel’’s famed Africa Corps. The Battle of El Alamein which began on October 23 was the type of set-piece engagement at which Montgomery excelled. His victory there represented the crowning achievement of his military career and shattered the mythical invincibility of the German army. With his “Desert Rats†in pursuit of the “Desert Fox†the world was soon to become familiar with the Montgomery image. Locked inside his small wiry frame was a reservoir of energy and an abundance of self-confidence. After the North African theater was cleared in May 1943 Montgomery led his forces in the invasion of Sicily July 1943 and later in the invasion of Italy September 1943. During the course of the Italian campaign he was recalled to England to assist in the planning of the Normandy invasion over which he was given tactical command. He commanded all Allied ground forces during the initial phase of the Battle of Normandy Operation Overlord from June 6 to September 1 1944. Then after Dwight D. Eisenhower was named Supreme Allied Commander Montgomery led the 21st Army Group and implemented a strategy of drawing German armored forces toward the British/Canadian sector at Caen enabling the U.S. breakout in the west. Montgomery continued to command the 21st Army Group through the rest of the campaign in North West Europe. When the war in Europe came to an end Montgomery was placed in charge of the British zone of occupation in Germany a post he held until February 1946 when he succeeded General Alan Brooke as chief of the Imperial General Staff.</p><p><strong>Autograph letter signed</strong> on his letterhead Hampshire March 1968 sending the shoulder strap and insignia he wore on his uniform during World War II. <em>“This shoulder strap with the insignia of a Field Marshal is from a uniform worn by me in Europe on certain ceremonial occasions after my promotion to the rank of Field Marshall on 1st September 1944 and as Commander-in-Chief of the ground forces under SHAEF Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force. The actual uniform was also worn by me on certain occasions during my command of the Eighth Army but did not then carry the insignia of a Field Marshal but of a General.â€</em> It is signed “<em>Montgomery of Alamein F.M.â€</em> The shoulder strap and colorful insignia are included.</p><p>An extraordinary memento of World War II from one of its most prominent leaders.
