Sir Thomas Erskine Napier (1790-1863), Commander in Chief, Scotland; Colonel of the 71st (Highland) Regiment of Foot [ Sir Edwar
Sir Thomas Erskine Napier to Sir Edward Blakeney Commander in Chief Ireland. Autograph Letter Signed 'Thos. E. Napier' in which he states that his time serving under Blakeney was the happiest of his military career.
No place Dublin. 12 November 1846. 3pp. 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition lightly aged and worn. Two days before the writing of this letter the London Gazette had announced 10 November 1846 that Napier then Deputy Adjutant-General in Ireland had been promoted to Lieutenant General. The letter in which he writes to his Commander in Chief in Ireland is headed 'Private'. It begins: 'My Dear Sir Edward As I grieve to think that our Official intercourse is of necessity about to terminate I hope you will allow me to take this mode of returning you my warmest thanks for all the kindness I have experienced from you since I came to the Royal Hospital'. Both men had been severely injured during the Peninsular War – Blakeney in 1811 and 1812 and Napier in 1813 – and presumably had met at the Royal Hospital Chelsea. He can 'with truth and sincerity say that the period I have served with you here has been by far the happiest during the whole of my Military Career'. He states: 'I quit my present position on Promotion' but feels certain that Blakeney approves of the manner in which he has conducted the duties of his department. He has 'no right to expect' that he will 'be employed at once upon the Staff' but adds: 'I trust my time may come & when it does I sincerely hope it may be under your Command & the more immediate the better I should like it'. No place (Dublin?). 12 November 1846. unknown

Special Air Service Regiment
SPECIAL AIR SERVICE PERSONAL PROTECTION SKILLS COURSE
Lower Bullingham Hereford: Special Air Service Regiment n.d. Pp. 94; demy 4to; printed stiff paper wrappers perforated with plastic binder upper wrapper protected by plastic cover sheet; an in-house photocopied manual; privately published by the Special Air Service Regiment Lower Bullingham Hereford n.d. Marked Private and Confidential. This SAS Bodyguard Training Manual from 22 SAS Stirling Lines is only available to those who undertake the course. This is usually people like The Royal Protection Squad and bodyguards of visiting Foreign Governments or VIP's. The course costs 'a33500vat as at March 2010. In 2009 a member of the regiment died on active service abroad. The MOD in their infinite wisdom refused to pay his army pension to his dependants on the grounds they were never married. This despite the fact they had two young kids and lived together as man and wife in Army married quarters for 12 years! The Families Officer of the Regiment is fighting the case. As you can imagine some of the lads still serving didn't take this too well and decided to take matters into their own hands. Some copies of The Bodyguard Training Manual were "acquired" and are being sold off with the money going direct to the dependants! Special Air Service Regiment unknown

TAYLOR James Major of his Majesty's 48th Regiment of Foot
Part of the Harbour of Port Jackson and the Country between Sydney and the Blue Mountains New South Wales
London: Alecto Editions and the State Library of New South Wales 1988. Originally engraved by Robert Havell and son printed by Edward Egerton-Williams in colours and finished by hand with printer's blindstamp. "By 1820 Sydney was a town of 12000 inhabitants about a third of whom were convicts. It had grown dramatically during the administration of Lachlan Macquarie who was appointed governor of New South Wales in 1810. Unlike previous governors Macquarie was not content merely to oversee a penal colony. His vigorous building programme changed forever the appearance of Sydney while his policy of accepting emancipated convicts as respected citizens demonstrated a social attitude strangely out of step with the times. Both these policies earned him criticism. In 1819 alarmed by Macquarie's extravagant public works the British Government commissioned a lawyer and civil servant J.T.Bigge to investigate. The attacks by his critics were met head on by Macquarrie's supporters in New South Wales. Books pamphlets and paintings luded the governor's undoubted achievements. Almost certainly Major Taylor's drawings were used in if not commissioned for this cause.
