La Machine de la Martinique [ Tapuscrit dédicacé par l'auteur ]
1 reprographié sous reliure spirale, 1999, 254 pp. Très bel envoi de l'auteur, le docteur libournais et écrivain Jean-Pierre Chevalier, "à Michel Suffran, cette évocation, très romancée, de la personnalité du capitaine Etienne de Montauban, flibustier célèbre en Saintonge, dont près d'une centaine de documents gardent la trace aux Archives Départementales de la Gironde et qui a donné son nom à une rue du quartier Saint Augustin, à Bordeaux". On joint une L.A.S. dans laquelle l'auteur explique que cette dernière version du roman est 'l'aboutissant de multiples remaniements du roman". Rare manuscrit, manifestement inédit, relatant de manière romancée, les aventures d'Etienne de Montauban, lequel avait relaté ses propres aventures dans un ouvrage paru en 1698 à Amsterdam sous le titre de "Voyage en Guinée, de Monsieur de Montauban, capitaine Flibustier" (Exmelin en propose un résumé dans son "Histoire des Aventuriers et Flibustiers qui se sont signalés dans les Indes").

Civil War
Herrick Harrison B. Group of three daily diaries for 1861 1863 1865 and two others for 1866 and 1867. Together five diaries
<p>Group of three daily diaries for 1861 1863 1865 and two others for 1866 and 1867. Together five diaries. Various places: 1861-1867. Each 12mo morocco wallet style bindings four black one red. Diaries for 1861 and 1863 in pencil others combination of pencil and ink. All bindings are worn 1863 is more so and a couple have some tears along edges and hinges. The 1866 diary has more significant wearm and some cracks along the edges. Group of 10 pages are loose in 1863. Condition of writing varies but generally fairly legible. Overall the group is in very good condition.Herrick was from Syracuse New York and served in Company D of the 110th Regiment of the New York Volunteers. However information from the National Park Service archive suggest he served with the 12 Regiment out of New York. He appears to have served during the siege at Port Hudson and did garrison duty at the infamous Union prison Fort Jefferson in Florida. The first diary covers his enlistment in April 1861 to the end of that year. The diary describes training and the trip to Washington where the regiment was reviewed by President Lincoln. It appears that in July 1861 he was discharged for medical reasons but for some reason he re-inlisted in August 1862. The diary for 1863 covers the entire year and includes descriptions of the siege and assault on Port Hudson. Herrick seems to have been ill during this period and stayed in camp a lot. In February 1864 Herrick and the 110th began garrison duty at Fort Jefferson the much reviled Union prison located on Garden Key Island in the Gulf of Mexico. While Herrick’s descriptions often seem somewhat monotonous the weather his health which ships came in his impressions of various drills this diary is one of very few first hand accounts inside the prison. There are some interesting entries including a prison detail discovering coffins while digging a foundation for a new building an officer arrested for selling whiskey to prisoners and a prisoner being "strung up" for stealing. Perhaps the most significant content of this diary is related to Lincoln’s assassination. In an entry on April 22nd a ship brings news to the prison "they had three prisoners slung up for rejoicing over it" Then in an entry dated July 24th the naval transport Florida brought three of the Lincoln assassination conspirators Samuel Arnold Michael O’Laughlin and Dr. Samuel Mudd to the prison. This prison wasn’t known for kindly treatment of prisoners the weather usually very hot and humid and the place was infested with bugs and misquotes. The food was what you would expect and Samuel Arnold was reported to have said the meat was so rotten "dogs ran from it." nps.gov/civilwar/soldiers</p>

He appears to have served during the siege at Port Hudson and did garrison duty at the infamous Union prison Fort Jefferson in Florida. The first diary covers his enlistment in April 1861 to the end of that year. The diary describes training and the trip to Washington where the regiment was reviewed by President Lincoln. It appears that in July 1861 he was discharged for medical reasons but for some reason he re-inlisted in August 1862. The diary for 1863 covers the entire year and includes descriptions of the siege and assault on Port Hudson. Herrick seems to have been ill during this period and stayed in camp a lot. In February 1864 Herrick and the 110th began garrison duty at Fort Jefferson the much reviled Union prison located on Garden Key Island in the Gulf of Mexico. While Herrick’s descriptions often seem somewhat monotonous the weather his health which ships came in his impressions of various drills this diary is one of very few first hand accounts inside the prison. There are some interesting entries including a prison detail discovering coffins while digging a foundation for a new building an officer arrested for selling whiskey to prisoners and a prisoner being "strung up" for stealing. Perhaps the most significant content of this diary is related to Lincoln’s assassination. In an entry on April 22nd a ship brings news to the prison "they had three prisoners slung up for rejoicing over it" Then in an entry dated July 24th the naval transport Florida brought three of the Lincoln assassination conspirators Samuel Arnold Michael O’Laughlin and Dr. Samuel Mudd to the prison. This prison wasn’t known for kindly treatment of prisoners the weather usually very hot and humid and the place was infested with bugs and misquotes. The food was what you would expect and Samuel Arnold was reported to have said the meat was so rotten "dogs ran from it." nps.gov/civilwar/soldiers</p> books
