SOMETHING CHILDISH and Other Stories
1924. London: Constable & Co. 1924. Original grey cloth stamped in violet with dust jacket.<br/><br/> First Edition second and usual issue a very few copies once pegged at 34 in number were first issued without the "First Published 1924" on the title page verso. Knopf's American edition published the same year was titled THE LITTLE GIRL. This posthumous collection of 25 stories includes writings from as early as 1908 when the New Zealand native was only 19. The title story actually "Something Childish but very Natural" is a tale of young love beginning with a chance encounter of two teenagers on a commuter train replete with the proper awkwardness and ultimately the intrusion of fate. She wrote it in 1914 when she and John Middleton Murry were living penniless in France; after she died in 1923 at age 34 it was he who had his wife's book published in his Introductory Note he says "I have no doubt that Katherine Mansfield were she still alive would not have suffered some of these stories to appear". This is a fine copy in a just-about-fine dust jacket a hint of wear at a couple of corners. Kirkpatrick A8a. unknown books

MANSFIELD LOVELL
A Day After Grant's Capture of Fort Henry Confederate General Lovell Weakens New Orleans in a Futile Attempt to Shore Up Fort Donelson
<p>In February 1862 General Mansfield Lovell sends reinforcements to Albert Sidney Johnston the chief Confederate commander in the West so he can defend Nashville and Fort Donelson. The move was fruitless; Fort Donelson fell to Union troops a week after this letter was written.</p> <b>MANSFIELD LOVELL.</b>Autograph Letter Signed to Albert Sidney Johnston. New Orleans La. February 7 1862. 1 p. 8 x 11 in.<p>With: a carte-de-visite of Lovell in Confederate uniform. New York & Washington: Brady's National Photographic Portrait Gallery ca. 1862.</p><p><b>Partial Transcript </b></p><p><i>"Capt. Gibson's battery 21 rifled 6 pdrs. and two 12 pdr. Howitzers has been detained for want of transportation but will leave tomorrow morning for Nashville. Capt. Bains has received his battery and with the exception of a portion of his harness is ready to proceed to join your command; but as his company is totally uninstructed I have thought it best to retain them at their encampment in the Jackson Rail Road to drill and be reduced to something like discipline. If however you desire to have the guns and men I would prefer to have the men instructed at Nashville. I shall order them there upon the receipt of a telegram to that effect from you."</i></p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>A day before Lovell wrote this letter Ulysses S. Grant had forced the surrender of Fort Henry Tennessee. The loss prompted Confederate Western Department commander General Albert Sidney Johnston to abandon his position at Bowling Green Kentucky and fall back towards Nashville. A week later on February 16 Fort Donelson Tennessee fell. The Cumberland and Tennessee Rivers had been opened and all of western Tennessee northern Mississippi and northern Alabama were exposed to Union invasion. Johnston adopted the strategic thinking of P.G.T. Beauregard his new second-in-command and concentrated most of the men in the western theater on a climactic battle against Ulysses S. Grant. In the resulting Battle of Shiloh April 6-7 1862 Johnson himself was killed. He was the highest-ranking officer to die in battle on either side in the Civil War.</p><p>In the aftermath of the Battle of Shiloh New Orleans lay exposed to Union attack from the north while to the south Admiral David G. Farragut's Mississippi River fleet broke the Confederate defenses on the Mississippi River at Forts Jackson and St. Philip. The two forts protected New Orleans but Farragut bypassed them in the dark early morning hours of April 24. He then prevailed over Confederate Captain John Stevenson's overmatched fleet. Lovell began to evacuate New Orleans over the next few days well before Union General Benjamin Butler's army was in a position to threaten its works. Lovell's evacuation order probably cost him his career; he was investigated by a court of inquiry and never again commanded troops in the field. Butler occupied the Crescent City on May 1.</p><p><b>Mansfield Lovell </b>1822-1884 was a West Point graduate from Washington D.C. who was seriously wounded at Belen Gate in the Mexican War. In October 1861 he was appointed major general in the Confederate Army and assigned to command in New Orleans. Under Lovell the Confederates lost New Orleans but he was hampered by deficiencies in men and materiel and was subsequently cleared of responsibility. However he never again obtained high command.</p><p><b>Albert S. Johnston</b> 1803-1862 of Kentucky graduated from West Point where he befriended Jefferson Davis in 1828. He went to Texas where he served as aide-de-camp to Sam Houston's revolutionary army and rose to command Texas forces briefly in 1837. He also served as Secretary of War for the short-lived Republic of Texas. Johnston fought under Zachary Taylor in the Mexican War was colonel of the 2nd U.S. Cavalry on the Texas frontier led troops in the Utah wars and commanded the Department of the Pacific before the Civil War. In 1861 he was appointed full general second after Samuel Cooper with command of all Confederate forces in the western theater. Under his overall direction the South lost Fort Henry and Fort Donelson. His plans for resurgence in the West resulted in the Battle of Shiloh during which he fell mortally wounded.</p><p><b>Condition</b></p><p>Very good. Small chips at top margin two minor tears at left margin ink identification on verso.</p> books

London: MacMillan & Co 1877. 1st edition. Handsome modern period-style brown half-calf with marbled boards & maroon spine label with gilt ruling. Binding - Fine. Text block - Overall VG some browning & staining to paper especially 2L1 right margin/tide-water mark on lower text-block corner/H5 with ragged fore-edge; H8 with old paper repair to margin; Z1 with small semi-circular pc msg from upper margin affects the running title; pc laid-in gutter. Ex-lib with some stamps in text margins none on the 2 title pages. xxiii 1 513 pp. A3 is a second title leaf entitled "AERIAL NAVIGATION. The Problem with Hints for Its Solution. By Ithi Kefalende. 1851". Appendix A pp 493 - 496 is a list of aeronautic books used by the author in preparation of the text. Illustrated with 160 =159 as there is no Figure 50 intratextual figures diagrams & schematics. 8vo: A8 -A1 = 2L1 a4 -a4 a4 B - 2K8 2L1. 7-5/8" x 5" <br/><br/>Mansfield was known primarily for his work as the chemist who developed a process for extracting benzol from coal-tar thereby laying the foundation for the aniline industry as well as for his publication 'Theory of Salts' which is viewed as his most important contribution to theoretical chemistry. Mansfield's scientific orientation is notable in the perspective & approach displayed in this work where he devotes much thought & consideration to motive & powered aerial navigation as then current LTA efforts were subject to the whims of nature as they had been for the most part ever since Montgolfier. This publication along with all of his other works though written in the early 1850s was issued posthumously Mansfield having died prematurely at the young age of 36 from burns suffered during a laboratory accident. The DNB describes this title as "one of the most striking and suggestive works on its subject." MacMillan & Co hardcover books

Walworth Mansfield Tracy.
Warwick; or The Lost Nationalities of America.
New York: G. W. Carleton Publisher 1869. First edition. A little bumped and rubbed with some fraying at the head and the foot of the spine; a very good copy. 8vo blind-stamped original green cloth gilt lettering 470 8 pages. A characteristic pot-boiler from the novelist whose infamy as an abusive husband was secured after he was shot and killed by his teenage son Frank Walworth in 1873. Mansfield had beaten his wife often and bitten her badly at least once; such excerpts of letters to her threatening murder and suicide that this cataloger has seen have a morbid and sensationalist cast consonant with the tone of this novel; the son's release and pardon on grounds of insanity seems also suitably Gothic in keeping with Mansfield Walworth's own fictions.
