1900542Havana 1900. Good. Three typescript letters 4pp. total. Previously folded light chipping at edges. Evenly tanned. An interesting series of three letters from the Adjutant General W.V. Richards at U.S. Army Headquarters in Havana after the end of the Spanish-American War during the period of American military government. On February 28 1900 the military governor herein authorized the purchase of a book collection owned by heirs of a Don José Maria de Cardenas y Rodriguez from the town of Guanabacoa for the formation of a library at the university in Havana "at a price not to exceed $4000." In the second letter dated April 17 the collection seems to have been sold out from under them at a much lower price which has left the governor wondering why the university could not acquire the books with the allotted funds. In the third letter dated May 23 the collection seems to be for sale again by a third party and the governor again states that he is willing to purchase the collection for the previously stated sum "However to warn you that there has been so much said about the purchase of this Library for the Institute that there is danger that some of the books may have been extracted or that the property is not as valuable as when it was inspected." A neat record of a book deal gone sideways in 1900 Havana. unknown books

Wood born on October 9 1860 in Winchester New Hampshire graduated Harvard Medical School in 1884. After working in private practice in Boston for two years he secured a job as army assistant surgeon with the rank of first lieutenant in January 1886. Routine successes and close relationships with political giants Wood formed a close friendship with Theodore Roosevelt and helped Roosevelt organize the 1st Volunteer Calvary Regiment for service in the Spanish-American War in May 1898 allowed for a quick advancement in his military service which eventually aroused some controversy. "Promoted to brigadier general and in December of that year he was promoted again to major general of volunteers and named military governor of Cuba. During his term in that post great strides were taken in improving internal conditions notably through the sanitation work of Maj. William C. Gorgas. Modern school police transportation and communications systems were established and a new constitution and body of laws were drawn up." Webster's American Military Biographies p. 488. In May of 1902 Wood stepped down from his executive position in order for the popularly elected President Tomas Estrada Palma to take over. "Aggressive ambitious and self-righteous Wood was not an easy man to work with; his change from medical doctor to fighting soldier and his rise from captain to brigadier general in the space of five years 1898-1903 aroused considerable distrust and hostility in and out of the army. his single-inded advocacy of the Plattsburgh Idea later to resurface as the ROTC contributed greatly to US readiness in World War I; unquestionably one of the greatest U.S. soldiers." -The Harper Encyclopedia of Military Biography p.807.
