This outstanding souvenir album depicts the height of the vital Naval Aviation Training School which provided essential technical expertise and training to entire generations of Naval Aviators and Naval aviation mechanics and carpenters through World War I and beyond. Founded originally in 1904 when a board appointed by President Theodore Roosevelt selected two farms of north of Lake Bluff IL as a training station which originally covered 172 acres. By Armistice Day at the end of World War I the facility had expanded to 1200 acres and over 45000 men underwent training. Of particular interest in this album are the 36 panoramic photographs documenting Naval Aviator and Naval Aviation mechanic classes for the 15th Regiment and 1st Battalion 15th Regiment from 1919-1920 as well as class rooms machine shops for aviation mechanics and Naval instructors. Others encompass the cutaway model Aviation engines with instructional charts on the surrounding wals the carpenter’s shop with aviation machinery jigs on work benches and airline bodies under construction. One photo depicts the Motor Laboratory Steam Laboratory and Equipment from the USS Eagle 25 at the Aviation Mechanics’ School a US Navy patrol boat which had sunk in a storm in June 1920 and then been raised and sold off as a hulk by Dec. 1921. Other panoramic photos capture the Riggers’ School classroom at Great lakes with full scale biplanes and seaplanes scale model dirigible the Coppersmith School classroom the Fittings classroom with airplane propellers hanging from the walls dip baths for machined parts and nickel plate coating and several of the Naval Aviation School football baseball and other sporting teams including the largest panorama of the Inter-Training Station Baseball championship team from Great Lakes. Wallenstein 1861-1958 was a longtime Chicago photographer through the first four decades of the 20th Century who operated his studio out of his 3928 N. Kenneth home and specialized in panoramic photographs. Western Photo Studio in Waukegan IL appears to have been short-lived as the Waukegan IL directories from 1918-1921 do not list the business but possibly connected with the Western Union Telegraph offices as the address was interchangeable. Volpe 1885-1950 began working in New York originally as a bookbinder before enlisting as an aviation mechanic with the US Navy in 1910 assigned originally to the newly formed ground school in Pensacola and later became Chief Warrant Officer Pilot Airman and Instructor who oversaw the Naval Aviation Training School from 1918-1921. He was also the assistant Athletic officer for baseball and tennis at the base. Naval Aviation Training School, L. Blakemore, Isaack Wallenstein, & Western Photo Studio (Photographers), unknown

1794104292London: n.p. 1794. 1st ed. octavo half-leather dark green boards with gilt stamp to spine"Wright's Revealed Knowledge" marbled endpapers all edges marbled pp 64. No publisher stated. Previous owner's bookplate Claude Toby front endpaper. Some scuffing to corners and light rubbing to small areas at fore-edge head and foot of spine. Inscription on blank endpaper at rear which refers to citations of Wright in 1907 and 1909. Very good condition. The title page continues "now published By his Divine Command for the good of all Men. by John Wright His Servant and one of the Brethren." John Wright was a carpenter from Leeds who heard preachers speak of "wonderful light . of which Baron Swedenborg was the forerunner". In April 1788 Wright felt called to travel through London then with William Bryan through France to the society at Avignon European Illuminists where they met a group of disciples of the mystic Emanuel Swedenborg returning to London in September 1789. Much of the book is an account of "Remarkable Prophecies revealed to the Spiritual Society at Avignon relative to the Present Times and approaching Latter Days" published here in the form of a letter from Richard Brothers. Richard Brothers 1757-1824 who called himself 'the Nephew of the Almighty' and probably best known for his influence on the poetry of William Blake became a self-declared prophet: Wright Bryan and the engraver William Sharp were among his disciples. There are still believers in his teachings of British Israelism. Brothers's prophecies are followed by "A Collection of Wonderful Sentences Quotations Questions and Prophecies. selected from the Spiritual Society" and then "Sentences Moral Maxims and Spiritual Instructions extracted out of Answers from Heaven". Wright's "Revealed Knopwledge" has a Swedenborgian tone and it is possible that the Society was part of the Swedenborg Rite: a society of such was founded in Avignon in 1773 modelled on Freemasonry and based on Swedenborg's teachings. Wright's society may well have been part of the hermetic teachings of the Benedictine Monk Dom Antoine Joseph Pernety. Although he is not named in the text Pernety founded an initiate society called the Illumines d'Avignon "Illuminated Ones of Avignon". The group is said to have taught occult philosophies and meta-physical rituals drawing on alchemy and Swedenborgian ideas. The second part 'Remarkable Prophecies' mentions the prophecies of Jeremiah death of King of Prussia and the Mahometans. Wright's publication is scarce and a fascinating glimpse into the some of the spiritual and hermetic ideas of the time. From the library of New Churchman Claude Toby 1st Edition.

Marbled endpapers manuscript list of contents to front blank fly-leaf very occasional light spotting. A coherent sammelband of nine pamphlets by or relating to Unitarian minister Lant Carpenter 1780-1840 including notably his biographical memoir of Rajah Rammohun Roy 1772-1833. In 1816 Carpenter took up the post of minister at Lewin's Mead Chapel Bristol. There he commenced a vigorous philanthropic initiative on the lines of a domestic mission and the establishment of a school. One of the more unusual events of his ministry was the arrival in Bristol of the Indian religious reformer Rammohun Roy in whose monotheistic movement Carpenter was strongly interested; Roy died of chronic respiratory ailment during his visit and Carpenter preached his funeral sermon. Roy who has been called the father of modern India was a tireless social reformer. In 1823 when the British imposed censorship upon the Calcutta Kolkata press Roy as founder and editor of two of India’s earliest weekly newspapers organised a protest arguing in favour of freedom of speech and religion as natural rights. He denounced the caste system advocated a monotheistic Hinduism and proposed the adoption of a modern Western curriculum of study. . First edition. Rowland Hunter et al. unknown

21703Rangoon : American Mission Press C. Bennett 1875. Octavo original printed green wrappers lightly foxed stitch bound a presentation copy inscribed by the author in pencil on the upper wrapper 'M.S. Rice Esq. from C.H. Carpenter'; pp 24; text in English and S'gaw Karen script; internally very clean; a near fine inscribed copy. A rare late nineteenth century linguistic pamphlet on Karen the language spoken by the Sgaw Karen ethnic group in the regions then known as eastern Burma and northern and western Siam. Its author the American missionary C.H. Carpenter was a teacher at the Rangoon Baptist College. 'Rev. C. H. Carpenter was born in 1835 and was a graduate of Harvard University and the Newton Theological Institution. He received his appointment July 1 1862 and sailed the following October for Burmah. On reaching Rangoon the following May Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter found a home in the family of Dr. Binney whose assistant he was to be in the management of the theological seminary. At once his warmest sympathies were enlisted for the Karens of whom he says ""If there is a people anywhere eager to learn it is the Karens. They come down to Kemendine sometimes hundreds of miles on foot not to make money but to study. I wish you could see Dr. Binneys' 62 bare-footed bare-legged students of theology.' From William Cathcart editor The Baptist Encyclopedia 1881; reprint 1988 p. 184 Carpenter's arcane linguistic study on foreign terms in Karen left the reviewer in The Indian Evangelical Review volume II no. VII January 1875 somewhat mistified: 'Finally from Burma comes a little pamphlet entitled A Revision of Dr. Wade's Rules for the Transliteration of Foreign Terms into Karen. We have no doubt at all that Dr. Wade's Rules were as good as they could be to begin with and that this Revision makes them a great deal better. Unfortunately we are unable to judge of their correctness and fear that the little pamphlet will not circulate very widely throughout lndia.' The reviewer's closing judgement was correct: OCLC locates only 2 copies Harvard - Carpenter's alma mater - and the British Library. unknown
