Publishing House of the Military School of the National Liberation Army and Partisan Detachments of Slovenia
Reading Maps. Basic Instructions for Reading Maps CITANJE KART
Kamnik district Slovenia: Tehnika RK VI 1943. 30pp. 8vo mimeographed text with images original tan wrappers with mimeographed cover.<br/><br/> This rare surviving pamphlet from World War II was produced by the Yugoslav Partisans the most accomplished armed resistance movement against the Axis occupation of Europe. Starting out as a guerilla group the Partisans soon created a complete underground society based on Communist principles including schools government and medical institutions financial systems and publishing presses. This pamphlet produced by one such press likely hidden in the mountains or forests of Slovenia addresses an emergent need in such a new clandestine society: that for maps. It proceeds in logical order: geographical vocabulary instructions for making field maps and later more sophisticated and symbolic drafting techniques. Within this technical know-how it also communicates tactical military advice that the Partisan guerillas employed in their battles with Axis armies. This tactical quality of the publication is most in evidence in the pamphlets many striking diagrams which demonstrate the importance of visual knowledge in situations of survival.<BR><BR>This pamphlet was one of many Partisan publications designed to educate protect and encourage members of the movement. It is particularly fascinating for its simple means of production since the secrecy of Partisan operations limited them to mechanical methods such as mimeographs--in witness here--as well as heliotypes linocuts and typewriting. Given its fragility the pamphlet is in excellent condition with clean text. Slight stains and some very small tears in margins. As one of the few Partisan publications on cartography this pamphlet is a rare and fascinating record of the World War II resistance.<br/><br/> Tehnika RK VI unknown books

MCPHERSON James Birdseye 1828 1864; Union Major General and corps and army commander
Endorsing a voucher of payment for a group of laborers on the Memphis & Charleston Rail Road signed July 1862 "Jas. B. McPherson Brig Genl & Supt."
Partly printed form 8 1/2 x 14 inches completed in a clerical hand and signed by McPherson; the form was printed for the Mobile & Ohio Railroad the notation for the "Memphis & Charleston R.R." added in manuscript and was also signed by a foreman and seven laborers for completed work. An Ohio native McPherson finished first in West Point's class of 1853 and served in the Corps of Engineers until the outbreak of war. His meteoric rise took him from lieutenant of engineers in August 1861 to the command of a division in October 1862; along the way he served as Grant's chief engineer superintendent of railroads in West Tennessee and as a brigade commander. He commanded a corps at Vicksburg and Sherman's Army of the Tennessee in the Atlanta campaign where he was killed 22 July 1864. "Sherman's tears rolled through his beard and down on the floor when he viewed the body of his friend laid upon a door torn from its hinges and improvised as a bier" Generals in Blue.
