During his career he exhibited more than 170 paintings at the Royal Academy and was a regular contributor to the Society of British Artists and the British Institution. His work was eagerly reproduced by contemporary engravers; and these delicate prints enjoyed a wide circulation throughout England and Europe.

181036285London 1810. Watercolor on card first drawing signed lower right. 1 vols. 10 x 7-1/2 inches images. Framed and glazed. Watercolor on card first drawing signed lower right. 1 vols. 10 x 7-1/2 inches images. "Buck Adam 1758-1833 portrait painter elder son of Jonathan Buck a silversmith of Castle Street Cork was born there in 1759. With a younger brother Frederick he studied art from an early age and acquired some repute in youth in his native city as a painter of miniature portraits in water-colour. Coming to London in 1795 he settled at 174 Piccadilly and soon gained popularity. He not only continued to paint miniature portraits in water-colour but produced many portraits in oil and crayon of larger size. Between 1795 and 1833 the year of his death he exhibited at the academy as many as 171 pictures. He also exhibited ten other works at the British Institution and at the Society of British Artists in Suffolk Street. But the pictures that he exhibited represent a small proportion of his labours. Numerous pictures by him were reproduced in coloured engravings mostly in stipple and had a wide circulation. Of extant coloured engravings after his pictures the originals of as many as forty or fifty are not known to have been exhibited. Among his sitters were the Earl of Cavan the Duke of York Sir Francis Burdett Major Cartwright John Cam Hobhouse and John Burke author of the Peerage' and his family. His portraits were carefully finished although they were stiff in treatment and design. Buck was at the same time busily employed as a teacher of portrait painting and in 1811 he brought out a volume entitled Paintings on Greek Vases' which contained a hundred designs not only drawn but also engraved by himself. This work which was planned to continue a similar compilation by Sir William Hamilton is now extremely scarce. In 1807 he moved from Piccadilly to Frith Street Soho and after several changes of residence died at 15 Upper Seymour Street West in 1833. Buck was married and left two sons Alfred and Sidney; the latter followed his father's profession. A miniature portrait of Buck by himself dated 1804 is in the Sheepshanks gallery of the Victoria and Albert Museum London. " - DNB. unknown books

The original letters written from the Civil War battlefields and camps of Tennessee and Virginia to their uncle and published in 1962 as "Respects to All": Letters of Two Pennsylvania Boys in the War of the Rebellion

53216Edited by Aida Craig Truxall for the U. of Pittsburgh Press comprising 44 autograph letters signed by Adam Bright 27 July 1861 - 14 April 1864 and 34 autograph letters signed by Michael Bright 22 October 1861 - 26 July 1863 most of each group to their uncle Emanuel Stotler at home in Alleghany County Pennsylvania; accompanied by the publisher's file of working manuscripts and other material. 8vo. 296 total pages approximately 30000 words; some of the letters with a patriotic letterhead most are addressed to their uncle some to his wife a few to "family" and several are from Adam to Michael most accompanied by mailing envelopes. The following are also included:_1 Truxall's original ribbon typescript for her transcriptions of the letters 4to 148 pages rectos only some pages with editorial markings._2 Truxall's original ribbon typescript of her manuscript for the book including her preface notes to the text and other material as submitted for publication with many corrections additions and deletions by her editor at the University of Pittsburgh Press 4to 152 pages rectos only._3 Truxall's copy of the published book 8vo 96 pp. illustrated cloth and boards dust jacket very good with the signature "Truxall" at the head of the front flap of the dust jacket._4 File of Truxall's notes toward the project genealogical material historical material concerning various Pennsylvania military units serving in the Civil War 1950s-era Civil War battlefield leaflets three topographical maps of the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania area and a few related newspaper clippings._5 Carte-de-visite photograph of Corporal Adam Bright 3 1/2 x 2 1/4 inches mounted on a slightly larger card in uniform sitting in a studio probably from 1864 with the backmark: "R.W. Addis / Photographer / 308 Penna Avenie / Washington D.C." All of the letters folded. Some foxing and a little staining to a few of the letters one repaired with tape the envelopes worn and variously soiled and stained; some postage stamps still affixed. Adam Bright enlisted in the 9th Pennsylvania Infantry in early 1861 and served with his unit in the various campaigns of the Army of the Potomac until the unit was mustered out of service in April 1864; he returned to civilian life in western Pennsylvania. His brother Michael enlisted in the 77th Pennsylvania regiment later in 1861 and served with that unit in the various campaigns of the Army of the Cumberland until killed in action on the first day at Chickamauga in September 1863._"The accounts of camp living the primitive practices of the army the methods of handling the distribution of rations the rumors of the immediate end of the war always erroneous and probably the result of wishful thinking on the part of the soldiers and the enlisted men's evaluations of the generals are all very interesting. But the most fascinating picture that emerges is that of two ordinary young men performing a duty that patriotism required of them in spite of the perils of battlefield and camp life while fighting the silent and lonely battle of homesickness which has always been the bane of soldiers" from Harry R. Beck 's review in The Western Pennsylvania Historical Magazine vol. 46 no. 1 Jan. 1863. hardcover books
