‎WWI French Soldier of the 23rd Company 205th Infantry Regiment‎

‎QUATRE MOIS DE CAMPAGNE Aug. 4 - Nov. 29 1914‎

‎The Ardennes France 1915. 8vo. 186 x 120 mm. 68 pp. manuscript text approximately 18000 words 67 full-page pen drawings. Contemporary home-made binding carved wooden boards in relief with a depiction of a Gaul soldier with spear point of tip and butt broken off which also appears elaborately rendered on the title-page which likewise reads: QUATRE MOIS DE CAMPAGNE dated "Aout Septembre Octobre Novembre 1914." Important elaborately illustrated manuscript journal being the detailed hitherto unpublished account of a French Infantryman "Poilu" during his four month campaign in the Ardennes trapped behind German lines along the Northern Front. The present manuscript is distinguished by its 67 full-page drawings and sculpted wood binding that depicts a Gaul soldier almost certainly created by the author / illustrator himself. This journal tells in graphic detail the disorganization of the campaign the ravages of the war and the cohabitation of the Regiment with the local population and the Allies. <br/><br/> Our soldier who has not yet been identified with certainty belonged to the French 23rd Company of the 205th Infantry Regiment. His moving narrative begins on August 4 1914 when he in Paris by train for Army mobilization. The journal gives a detailed account of the troop's movement through the Ardennes both in and out of the trenches. After several gruesome battles the Regiment was surrounded by the enemy in the woods of Signy-le-Petit. Facing the threat that the civilian population would be executed the Regiment surrendered to the Germans on November 29 1914 see below. This is where the journal ends the surviving soldiers of the 23rd Company having been taken as prisoners of war and marched into Germany. Many would not return. <br/><br/> The manuscript is illustrated with 67 full-page drawings naive but extremely detailed and evocative: some are sad even pathetic while others are full of G.I. humor. The journal itself is of particular interest in that the author was not a French officer official or professional journalist but a lowly "Poilu" literally: hairy or bearded one the informal name for a French WWI infantryman. Poilu is still used as a term of endearment for the French infantry of the Great War and the word carries the sense of the infantryman's typically rustic agricultural background. The Poilu soldier was known for his love of rationed "military grade" pinard wine. The image of the dogged bearded French soldier was widely used in propaganda and war memorials. The stereotype of the Poilu was of bravery endurance and unquestioning obedience. <br/><br/> The journal is of genuine scholarly interest because the majority of the narrative describes events that transpired 150 km inside enemy lines. The four-month account describes the heroism of French partisans who inhabited the forest of the Ardennes where the 23rd Company 205th Infantry Regiment was trapped. Two partisans in particular stand out namely Fernand Cretu a farmer and his wife Maria. From Sept. 13 to Nov. 28 1914 they hid fed supplied and protected the entire 23rd Company more than 250 soldiers on their farm near the village of Neuville lez Beaulieu Signy-le-Petit. The captain of the company de Colbert de Laplace lodged at the farm and made it his headquarters. <br/><br/> The longest and most compelling passages of the journal appear for November 28 and 29 which describe how the 23rd Company was surrounded by a thousand German soldiers. Fernand Cretu and his family were taken hostage by the enemy and his farm was burned. The entire village of Neuville lez Beaulieu was rounded up and taken into the church of Signy-le-Petit. There the German commanding officer informed Capt. de Colbert that if he did not surrender immediately the church would be locked and then set on fire. The captain capitulated and ordered that all weapons belonging to the 23rd Company be destroyed. These scenes are illustrated in the present manuscript and which may be the sole surviving eye-witness account of these events. At the end of the conflict Fernand Cretu and his wife were awarded the Croix de Guerre with a vermeil star. These partisan heroes are actually NAMED in the present Journal. <br/><br/> EXTRACTS: "On the 16th September 1914. Wake up at 6 o'clock. This morning we have coffee. Canon-fire but not as close as yesterday. Today we have bread and as always only 3 kg to feed 15 men. Meals are always the same and in small quantities. At 5.30 in the evening the Company meets in the courtyard of the farm; Roll Call: there are 15 men are missing AWOL; they had simply marched away some in plainclothes they bought from the farm workers. The AWOL soldiers are sentenced to eight days in prison. A pigsty is transformed for this purpose. A prison guard is appointed but he serves in this capacity only at night. At present he will live in a compartment of the pigsty; guardians and guardians will suffer equally ." <br/><br/> Céry-les-Mezieres August 30 1914: ". In haste we move out. It's about time because the shells are getting closer to us -- it's complete music sic percussion shrapnel; the 77th the 105th everyone does the dance sic. Where we are right now is not good. We are shelled section by section and we hit the ground. The shelling falls on all sides at once; they explode so close to us that at times the movement of the air produced by the explosions our faces are concussed we are splashed with earth and shrapnel. In my section two men were wounded simultaneously: one in front of the section the other in the last row pierced by the cans and bowls that were affixed to their packs. Under fire our impassive captain orders us to move right left forward backward. Thanks to his coolness we are doing well. Meanwhile our artillery retaliates but unfortunately 75 of our men are dislodged by 105 German soldiers . At 5am the order is given to move forward. With three comrades and a sergeant I go on patrol. We go to the end of the plateau that we occupy and from there we discover the entire valley of the Oise river. The fight resumes at our very feet. This is a famous vista but what is less famous are the bullets that whistle past our ears. In Berg-les-Mezieres the machine guns issue forth from a bridge -- what a concert sic. In front of us on the slope on the other side of the Oise we see the Germans descend into the battle in a tight flank; so it begins!" <br/><br/> Literature: "Historique du 205e Regiment d'Infanterie 1914-1918" Paris: Charles-Lavauzelle & Cie Editeurs Militaires 1922 p. 4.

‎E-172: Longman Hurst Rees Orme and Brown. Very Good. 1811. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Leather. 4to. Printed in London for Longman Hurst Rees Orme and Brown Paternoster-Row. 1811. 436 pgs. Fine folding engraved map "of the Interior of Louisiana with a part of New Mexico" and full-page map of ". The Mississippi River from its source to the Mouth of the Missouri." Bound by in full calf leather. Spine has been rebacked with contemporary leather spine and gilt titled spine label.

Both maps present however the first map has a small piece missing and has been rebacked with linen. Foxing present. Text is free of marks. Binding tight and solid. The first U. S. Government exploration of the American southwest. In 1805 Wilkinson ordered Pike to find the source of the Mississippi River so Pike traveled into the northern Louisiana Territory newly purchased from France. In 1806 Pike led an expedition to the southwestern borders of the land acquired by the United States through the Louisiana Purchase. One of the most important inland travel narratives giving an account of the South-west including the author's description of his earlier journey to explore the headwaters of the Mississippi. The two maps are among the first of the area executed by a government expedition. After Pike returned from this first expedition General Wilkinson almost immediately ordered him to mount a second expedition this time to explore map and find the headwaters of the Arkansas and Red rivers. Additional objectives of this exploratory expedition into the southwestern part of the Louisiana Territory were to evaluate natural resources and establish friendly relations with Native Americans. Beginning July 15 1806 Pike led what became known as the "Pike Expedition". General Wilkinson's son James served as one of his lieutenants although it now seems that Wilkinson planned that the Spanish who controlled Mexico would capture him and his men. Over 100 years later France released official records showing General Wilkinson received personal trade concessions and thus could be labeled a spy for Spain at the time.
