Alaska. Beckwith SL. S. L.
Manuscript Letter Signed by S.L. Beckwith Describing Unalaska in 1886
Unalaska 1886. Very good. 4pp. on a small bifolium. Previously folded. In a relatively neat legible script. A manuscript letter by one S.L. Beckwith describing his 1886 travels through the Aleutian Islands and the town of Unalaska addressed to a woman named Ida perhaps his sister. It reads in part: <br/><br/>"This is a poor miserable place. The AC Co. has one comfortable house outside of storehouses coal house salt house oil house and the like. The houses are all small. There is one small church denomination the Russian Greek Catholick. There is about 40 buildings in all here and about a Doz. of Berakies that is underground houses. Everything is built on the sand beach. There is plenty of codfish here also salmon salmon trout brook trout some striped fish and plenty of clams. There is no wood growing on this land."<br/><br/>He goes on to describe the steamer and trading activity in the port and also discusses his prior travels and onward journey through the Aleutian Islands. The "AC Co." mentioned is the Alaska Commercial Company which supported the seal and fur trades in Alaska during the 19th century after it was purchased by the United States. It was headquartered in San Francisco and ran operations in Unga and St. Michael as well as in Unalaska. A brief but interesting account of this Alaskan trading outpost during the 1880s. unknown books

Alaska. World War II
Photo Album Containing More than 100 Original Photographs of the 39th Air Depot at Amchitka Alaska During World War II
Amchitka & Anchorage Ak 1944. Overall very good. 111 original photographs measuring from 2.5 x 3.5 to 3.5 x 5 inches. Oblong folio album string-tied; leatherette boards front embossed and color stamped. Manuscript captions on album leaves; photos in corner mounts. A bit of soiling and wear to album leaves fading to some captions and a few images. An album of over 100 striking vernacular photographs taken and compiled by Corporal Herbert Farris of Lexington Kentucky that document his World War II service with the 39th Air Depot in Alaska. The men were involved in the maintenance and repair of Army Air Force aircraft and it appears that Farris operated a refueling truck. The unit was stationed in both Anchorage and in the Aleutian Islands and the album appears to include images from both of these areas. One image depicts the "wind indicator at Amchitka" an island in the far western Aleutians home to an Army Air Force Base constructed during the war. The album also includes many other images showing a remote base with bare bones conditions likely Amchitka or a nearby island. There are photos of the "first mess hall" a tent the "second mess hall" a series of huts a "barber shop" contained in a tent a shower tent a theater quonset hut barracks control tower and wooden walkways. The album also includes many images of aircraft including P-40s B-25 bombers and C-67 transports as well as photos of the refueling truck its operation and its crew. Finally there are images of "training planes" used for practice likely in Anchorage as well as some other images that appear to have been taken in Anchorage such as river gold dredgers and more permanent-looking buildings. A fascinating visual record of this far-flung American military outpost during World War II. unknown books

Army Engineers in Aleutian Islands Alaska
World War II in the Aleutians: U.S. Army Engineers and Military Operations in Alaska's North Pacific Frontier
1945. AArchive of 64 original black-and-white photographs documenting American military operations and engineering activities in the Aleutian Islands during World War II. Photographs measure approximately 4.5" x 3.5" and provide an extensive visual record of one of the most remote and environmentally challenging theaters of the war. The images chronicle the daily work of U.S. Army personnel and Army Engineers stationed across the Aleutian chain where military forces confronted not only the threat of enemy action but also some of the harshest conditions faced by American troops anywhere during the conflict. Soldiers appear throughout the archive wearing cold-weather gear field jackets heavy boots and M1 steel helmets while working patrolling and constructing infrastructure amid windswept volcanic landscapes.<br /> <br /> A significant portion of the collection documents the enormous logistical effort required to sustain military operations in the islands. Engineers are shown surveying terrain operating equipment cutting and processing timber and building facilities essential to maintaining isolated military outposts. Several striking photographs depict large timber-log chutes descending steep hillsides toward the shoreline apparently designed to move heavy equipment and supplies through terrain where conventional transportation proved difficult. Other images record lumber operations construction projects and the continual adaptation of military infrastructure to the rugged environment. The archive also contains numerous panoramic views of the Aleutian landscape itself. Snow-covered mountains barren volcanic ridges isolated coastlines glacial valleys and treeless tundra dominate many photographs illustrating why the campaign became as much a battle against geography and weather as against enemy forces. The Aleutian chain stretching deep into the North Pacific and containing dozens of active and dormant volcanoes represented one of the most isolated regions under American military control during the war.<br /> <br /> Naval and maritime operations are likewise represented. Several photographs show transport and supply vessels anchored offshore or approaching remote coastal installations highlighting the dependence of Aleutian bases upon sea-borne logistics. Military camps consisting of Quonset huts and tent encampments appear throughout the collection while one particularly notable image captures an aircraft flying above a military installation underscoring the importance of aerial reconnaissance and patrol operations in protecting the northern approaches to Alaska. Although often overshadowed by campaigns in Europe and the Central Pacific the Aleutian campaign held considerable strategic importance. Following the Japanese occupation of Attu and Kiska in 1942 American forces undertook a costly effort to secure the islands and maintain control of the northern Pacific. These photographs document the infrastructure manpower and determination required to operate in a theater where extreme weather isolation and difficult terrain shaped every aspect of military life. A substantial and visually compelling archive documenting the engineering logistical and environmental realities of America's northernmost front during World War II. Photographs remain in very good condition with minor surface wear and occasional light creasing. unknown
