Real Women of Tampa & Hillsborough County from Prehistory to the Millennium.

200451601bdTampa Florida: University of Tampa Press 2004. First Edition. Octavo green cloth hardcover gilt letters 463 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: They created a civilized society long before Europeans arrived in the New World helped establish Tampa as the nationâ€™s cigar capital led Floridaâ€™s first statewide suffrage movement built ships during World War II and pioneered movements -- in fields ranging from real estate development to social service -- that forged the communityâ€™s character. These are the Real Women whose lives and times author Doris Weatherford has collected for this comprehensive review of Tampa and Hillsborough County women from prehistory to the millennium. Some are familiar: Blanche Armwood a pioneer educator who began teaching at age 16; Clara Frye who opened a hospital for blacks in 1908; Maud Fowler developer of Temple Terrace and Hillsborough Countyâ€™s first female elected official; and Kate Jackson the driving force behind Tampaâ€™s public playgrounds. Others are far less well known including Ulela the Native American chiefâ€™s daughter who saved a Spanish explorerâ€™s life and Theresa Manuel Floridaâ€™s first female Olympian. Their contributions and those of countless others profiled in this volue are in a very real sense why we are where we are as Tampa and Hillsborough County enter the 21st century.

Washington George. Dictionnaire Portatif De La Langue Francoise.George Washington's Copy Together with a Catalogue of the Washington Collection in the Boston Athenaeum

17617561Lyon: Chez Pierre Bruyset - Ponthus 1761. Full Leather. Very Good. President George Washington's copy with his bookplate which was restruck before 1863 from the original copper plate. "The inventory of Washington's books made at the time of his death.shows that his library then numbered about nine hundred volumes. These under his will became the property of his nephew Judge Bushrod Washington who also inherited his papers and the Mansion House of Mount Vernon. Here Judge Washington lived and added to General Washington's library a part at least of his own books. In his will in 1826 he provided as follows: 'All the papers and letter books devised to me by my uncle Gen'l Washington as well as the books in my study other than law books I give to my nephew Geo. C. Washington; the books in the cases in the dining-room I give to my nephew John A. Washington.' In the inventory of his estate are these items: In the dining-room 468 vols. miscellaneous works left to John A. Washington 658 vols. of miscellaneous works left to Geo. C. Washington 1125 N. of miscel. Pamphlets left Geo. C. Washington beside 169 vols. of State papers 22 vols. of Journals of Congress and 649 vols. of Law Books 22 law pamphlets. These latter were destined for Bushrod Washington Herbert the son of a niece in case he should be trained for the law. Mount Vernon was next occupied by John A. Washington. The books left to George C. Washington remained there for many years but in 1847 or 1848 a considerable portion of them perhaps all that remained were sold to Henry Stevens the bookseller. Mr. Stevens announced his intention of sending them over to the British Museum. To prevent this and to secure them for Boston a number of Boston and Cambridge men particularly Prof. Jared Sparks Prof. Andrews Norton Mr. George Livermore and Mr. Charles Eliot Norton.raised $3800 to purchase them from Stevens. This amount and $450 beside was collected the Athenaeum itself contributing $500; and at a meeting of the subscribers it was voted to place the books permanently in the Boston Athenaeum.The remainder of Washington's library has been scattered and no large number of his books now exists in any one place beside the Boston Athenaeum. What became of the rest of the books left to George C. Washington can only be conjectured. Those given to John A. Washington passed to his son John A. Washington and then to his son Lawrence Washington of Alexandria Va.other sales have given an opportunity to book collectors to bid for books which once belonged to Washington. The titles of the Catalogues of these sales will be found on pp. 470-475 of this volume. A sale of books claiming to be from Washington's library but having spurious book-plates took place in Washington in 1863." The present title is one of those. So the "spurious" bookplate was struck by the Washington family from the original copper plate and placed into some of the books in the collection - so to call it "spurious" is a misnomer. The collection of General Washington in the Boston Athenaeum contains 13 volumes with this bookplate - they were purchased in Washington in 1863 see page 565 of "A Catalogue of the Washington Collection in the Boston Athenaeum". 12mo 775 pages. Contemporary calf marbled end papers red leather lettering piece on spine; all edges stained red. Internally very good; binding shows considerable wear. Bookplate of George Washington on front pastedown a 19th century restrike from the original copper plate. Housed in a contemporary full leather box with a slide-off top.

Washington George 1732 1799; commander of American armies in the Revolutionary War 1775 1783; first President of the United StABAA

Letter text in the hand of aide-de-camp Tench Tilghman signed "Go. Washington" as commander-in-chief of the American Army to General David Forman Head Quarters Bergen County 4 September 1780; additionally signed by Washington on the address leaf on the verso of an otherwise blank integral leaf

178063128Head Quarters Bergen County NJ 1780. Folio one page approximately 125 words in part: "I perceive . that you had collected about two hundred Cattle more and that a further number might be obtained . I cannot of right command the services of the militia . let the commanding officers know how distressed the Army has been and is likely to be for provisions and that it will be rendering splendid service to us and distressing the enemy to remove the Cattle from those parts of the Coast which furnish the New York Markets." Very good. Browned one small piece detached one word of text easily repaired. After Washington's victory at Monmouth June 1778 during which battle Forman had served as an advisor to Charles Lee the war settled into stalemate with Washington's army in New Jersey and the British forces content to remain in New York both sides keeping an eye on each other while trying to provide for their soldiers the American forces suffering deprivation similar to that of Valley Forge. Meanwhile on the day this letter was written word reached Washington of the complete rout of Horatio Gates and his troops at Camden South Carolina opening Virginia to British invasion from the South. Bolstered by American victories at Kings Mountain Oct. 1780 and Cowpens Jan. 1781 and the depletion of Cornwallis's army at its victory over Nathaniel Green at Guilford Court House Washington in conjunction with his French allies moved south to envelop Yorktown earning the British surrender in October 1781 effectively ending the war. General David Forman 1745-1797 born and raised in Monmouth County New Jersey was appointed colonel of a New Jersey regiment that reinforced Washington at New York in June 1776. After suppressing a loyalist uprising later that year during which time he earned the nickname "Devil David" he was chosen to lead a regiment in the Continental army and in 1777 was commissioned brigadier general to lead the New Jersey militia commanding that force in the battle of Germantown Oct. 1777. Disagreements with the New Jersey legislature led to his resignation from that command and he spent the rest of the war running listening posts especially along the coast of New Jersey providing Washington with intelligence on the movements of the British fleet and army a service he was providing at the time of this letter. see DAB Tench Tilghman 1744-1786 born and raised in Talbot County Maryland graduated from the precursor to the University of Pennsylvania in 1761 taking up a mercantile business until the outbreak of the revolution. After serving briefly as a captain in the army he joined Washington as a volunteer and served continuously as an aide-de-camp to the general for the balance of the war. "The amount of secretarial work in addition to military duties that he performed for Washington was prodigious" DAB and he was granted a regular commission of lieutenant-colonel in 1781. After the victory at Yorktown Tilghman was chosen by Washington to carry the announcement of the surrender of Cornwallis to the Continental Congress. Provenance: When recently purchased the letter was in an old frame and removal revealed an autograph note inside the backing included here as follows: "This letter was bought by me about 1860 of Miss Brown residing at 92 Columbus Street Albany New York. She was a sister of an old minister of St. Peters Church. This Miss Brown was a client of Orlando Meads and myself and found this letter in a barrel in the garret of the home occupied by her sister at Manalapan New Jersey formerly owned by General David Forman. signed Dexter Reynolds / Albany Sept. 7 1902. Presented to my son Marcus T. Reynolds." A newly discovered Washington letter shedding light on the general's relationship to state militias and his concerns for providing for his troops while disrupting the supply lines of the British. Not in Fitzgerald or the Founders Online from the National Archives which lists 57 other Washington letters to Forman 1777-1782 showing a gap from 24 July 1780 to 17 May 1781 and two others post-war.Ã‚Â 9836. unknown books
