‎(Masonry) (Civil War) Jewell, Jacob, author‎

‎Heroic Deeds of Noble Master Masons During the Civil War From 1861 to 1865 in the U.S.A.‎

‎Pueblo CO: The Franklin Press. 1916. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. This volume written by Jewella Civil War soldier had started the process of becoming a Mason but was interrupted two weeks later by joining the Union army in 1862. After serving in the winter of 1865/66 he became Master Mason. The book contains the stories of soldiers who when captured by the Confederates or the Federal Army once they were known to be a Mason were treated as brothers and well cared for. Cleary Jewell had solicited these stories as they are mostly signed by the former soldier/Mason who experienced these considerations. The book also contains a brief autobiography of Jewell as well as some thoughts on Masonry war and related subjects. The Masonry scholar Michael A Halleran wrote in the journal "Heredom" suggesting the Masonry affiliation aided prisoners on both sides of the conflict. Jewell's book is considered one of the earliest works addressing the Freemasonry's role in the Civil War though Halleran does criticize it for being "anecdotal." See volume 15 2007 of "Heredom." The book is near fine with a few small spots on the front board. Extremely scarce.; Small 8vo 7½" - 8" tall; 127 pp . The Franklin Press hardcover‎

‎[ODAZI, Troiano]‎

‎Della libertà de’ prezzi ossia della necessità di abolire i contratti alla voce per tutte le derrate di questo Regno‎

‎In -4°, pp. VIII, 182, (4). Piena pergamena con titolo al dorso. Prima edizione. Contraddittorio e inquieto studioso, Odazi (Atri, 1741 - Napoli, 1794) è considerato fra gli economisti napoletani di maggior rilievo nella seconda metà del Settecento. Allievo del Genovesi, la cui cattedra gli sarebbe stata affidata nel 1781, massone, partecipò se pure con indolenza al fermento politico che avrebbe portato nel 1799 alla guerra civile e poi alla Repubblica napoletana. Ma, imprigionato nel ’94, si era ucciso in carcere, in circostanze mai chiarite. In questo suo “dotto studio” O. invoca “contro l’opinione del Galiani, la libertà dei prezzi, col notevole intento di giovare agli umili e, di riverbero, alla prosperità nazionale” (R. di Castiglione, “La massoneria nelle due Sicilie”, Gangemi, 2006, p. 115). A restless and complex scholar, Odazi was considered one of the major neapolitan economists of the second half of XVIII century. A mason, pupil of Genovesi, whose chair he obtained in 1781, he took part in politic stirs that brong in 1799 to civil war in Naples and the to the “Repubblica”. But he was imprisoned and died in jail, probably suicide, in ’94. In this learned work O. claims, against Galiani opinion, the freedom of prices, meaning to benefit the humble classes.‎

Yet this is the thrust of a Secret Report by a North American Counter Intelligence Military Team and certain ancillary documents. The Report cites far-reaching legislation which shifted the responsibility for law enforcement in the U.S. to the U.N.

Ahmed Saib was born in 1859 in Dagestan. After completing his education in military schools in the Russian Empire, he entered the service of the Ottoman Empire with the rank of captain. He was in the Sultan Abdulhamid II's Hassa Cavalry Regiment and under the aide of Gazi Ahmed Muhtar Pasha, the Extraordinary Commissioner of Egypt. Later, he left his military service and published the newspaper Sancak (1899-1907), which spread the ideas of Ottoman liberals against the tyranny of the sultan since 1899 in Egypt, in the city of Cairo, and included articles on the constitutional struggle and the political structure of the period. Murad V was the 33rd Sultan of the Ottoman Empire who reigned from 30 May to 31 August 1876. The question of Sultan Murad V's enthronement in 1876 was a very strategic move for the Young Turks in its period. Only three copies in OCLC: 427392804.; Özege 19913. First and Only Edition.
