AMHERST MASSACHUSETTS. Very Good. 1861. On offer is a super large archive of circa 1861 - 1896 historical manuscript letters documents and ephemera all providing an interesting and intimate look into the work life and academic affairs of Francis Amasa Walker 1840-1897 noted Civil War general Yale economist Superintendent of the 1880 census and President of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT. He was the son of renowned economist Amasa Walker. A brief biography is at the end of this listing. The archive is comprised 76 autograph letters signed ALSs received and 14 Civil War documents most signed as follows: A His correspondence encompasses academics politicians military leaders and literary figures. Some of the many prominent correspondents included in this archive are: Schuyler Colfax 2 letters as Vice President John Tyndall Henry Fawcett Henry Cabot Lodge Thomas Wentworth Higginson poet Thomas B. Aldrich 3 letters Nelson Miles John Hay William Dean Howells Harvard president Charles W. Eliot 2 sculptor Daniel Chester French historian Francis Parkman Henry Adams sent two substantial letters including a detailed 1878 commentary on the silver question his brother Charles Francis Adams Jr. began his 1883 note "I am one of those fools who use yachts" and invited Walker along for a long cruise Samuel Chapman Armstrong who wrote in 1888 on his efforts to hire a carpentry instructor at his Hampton Institute to provide marketable skills to his students British historian George O. Trevelyan in response to one of Walker's Civil War histories wrote "I never before appreciated the appalling dangers and efforts" adding that the battles "tell a story that stands alone and makes me really proud of what is after all my race." B 14 documents from Walker's Civil War service as Adjutant General to Generals Couch and Hancock. C The Walker family autograph collection: 30 items including clipped signatures of James A. Garfield and Booker T. Washington. All are sleeved in massive 3-ring binder; generally well-preserved small mount remnants on verso of many items. BIO NOTES: From one online source: Francis Amasa Walker was a statistician journalist educator academic administrator and military officer in the Union Army. Walker was born into a prominent Boston family the son of the economist and politician Amasa Walker and he graduated from Amherst College at the age of 20. He received a commission to join the 15th Massachusetts Regiment of Volunteers and quickly rose through the ranks as an assistant adjutant general. Walker fought in the Peninsula Campaign and was injured at the Battle of Chancellorsville but subsequently participated in the Bristoe Overland and Richmond-Petersburg Campaigns before being captured by Confederate forces and held at the infamous Libby Prison. In July 1866 he was nominated by President Andrew Johnson and confirmed by the United States Senate for the award of the honorary grade of brevet brigadier general United States Volunteers to rank from March 13 1865 when he was age 24. Following the war Walker served on the editorial staff of the Springfield Republican before using his family and military connections to gain appointment as the Chief of the Bureau of Statistics from 1869 to 1870 and Superintendent of the 1870 census where he published an award-winning Statistical Atlas visualizing the data for the first time. He joined Yale University's Sheffield Scientific School as a professor of political economy in 1872 and rose to international prominence serving as a chief member of the 1876 Philadelphia Exposition American representative to the 1878 International Monetary Conference President of the American Statistical Association in 1882 and inaugural President of the American Economic Association in 1886 and vice president of the National Academy of Sciences in 1890. Walker also led the 1880 census which resulted in a twenty-two volume census cementing Walker's reputation as the nation's preeminent statistician. As an economist Walker debunked the wage-fund doctrine and engaged in a prominent scholarly debate with Henry George on land rent and taxes. Although Walker argued that obligations existed between the employer and the employed he was an opponent of the nascent socialist movement and argued in support of bimetallism. He published his International Bimetallism at the height of the 1896 presidential election campaign in which economic issues were prominent. Walker was a prolific writer authoring ten books on political economy and military history. In recognition of his contributions to economic theory beginning in 1947 the American Economic Association recognized the lifetime achievement of an individual economist with a "Francis A. Walker Medal". Walker accepted the presidency of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1881 a position he held for fifteen years until his death. During his tenure he placed the institution on more stable financial footing by aggressively fund-raising and securing grants from the Massachusetts government and implemented many curricular reforms oversaw the launch of new academic programs and expanded the size of the Boston campus faculty and student enrolments. MIT's Walker Memorial Hall a former students' clubhouse and one of the original buildings on the Charles River campus was dedicated to him in 1916.; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF FRANCIS AMASA WALKER MIT YALE HENRY CABOT LODGE AMHERST SCHUYLER COLFAX JOHN HAY CHARLES ELIOT FRANCIS PARKMAN HENRY ADAMS AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY AMERICANA Als antiquité contrat vélin document manuscrit papier Antike Brief Pergament Dokument Manuskript Papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antigüedad hecho vitela documento manuscrito papel. . unknown

The couple regularly rode with the Bramham Moor Hunt among many other involvements in Yorkshire life. She was awarded the title Princess Royal in 1932 and in World War II she was Controller Commandant of the Auxiliary Territorial Service ATS.

". je travaille en ce moment dans le silence et n'ai rien de particulier à dire sur mes projets sinon que la Rose de sable roman paraîtra fin 1931."" Signed autograph letter addressed to Christian Melchior-Bonnet
Alger Algiers 1930. Fine. Alger Algiers 18 Octobre 1930 21 x 27 cm une page une enveloppe Autograph letter signed by Henri de Montherlant 26 lines written in blue ink written from Algiers. Folds inherent to mailing envelope included. Having returned from a long stay in Morocco Henri de Montherlant explains his current working method and discusses his upcoming publication projects: "". la Rose de sable roman paraîtra fin 1931 et qu'une édition adaptée pour la jeunesse de mes deux Olympiques sera publiée l'an prochain par Larousse."" "". la Rose de sable a novel will appear at the end of 1931 and that an edition adapted for young people of my two Olympiques will be published next year by Larousse."" He regrets not being able to immediately accommodate Christian Melchior-Bonnet's request for manuscript pages of his works in progress in order to review them in his Nouvelles littéraires: ""Je vous donnerai bien volontiers les quelques feuillets que vous demandez autographes. Mais je n'ai rien ici que les deux états des brouillons de la Rose de Sable et comme je vis dans la crainte de perdre le manuscrit principal que je transporte dans mes déplacements je garde le second.""

"Mais ce qui est le plus important dans la tauromachie c'est qu'elle est une façon d'être une façon de sa tenir devant la vie et par là dépasse bien le jeu de l'arène."" Beautiful signed autograph letter addressed to Robert de Saint-Jean about his vision of bullfighting
Paris 1963. Fine. Paris 11 Mai 1963 13.50 x 20.50 cm une page recto verso une enveloppe Autograph letter signed by Henri de Montherlant 27 lines written in blue ink written from Paris in which he expounds and explains the reasons for his love of bullfighting. Folds inherent to mailing envelope included. Henri de Montherlant shares with his correspondent the emotion provided by a phrase by Julien Green: "". je connaissais par coeur quasiment cette phrase de Green tant j'y avais été sensible. Mais j'avoue n'avoir pas pensé que ""R"" était vous. Raison de plus pour en être touché."" "". I knew by heart almost this phrase by Green so much had it moved me. But I confess I had not thought that ""R"" was you. All the more reason to be touched by it."" He considers having his latest work sent to him: ""Je voudrais bien vous envoyer moi-même le volume d'Espana sagrada si votre libraire ne peut l'avoir j'en demanderai un exemplaire à Wapler."" ""I would very much like to send you myself the volume of Espana sagrada if your bookseller cannot get it I will ask Wapler for a copy."" and seems affected by a false idea that people have about his work ""Le chaos et la nuit"": "". Je suis un peu agaçé qu'on écrive souvent que dans le ""Chaos"" je renie la Tauromachie. Je renie comme tous les aficionades la mauvaise tauromachie. Mais ce qui est le plus important dans la tauromachie c'est qu'elle est une façon d'être une façon de se tenir devant la vie et par là dépasse bien le jeu de l'arène."" "". I am a bit annoyed that people often write that in ""Chaos"" I renounce bullfighting. I renounce like all aficionados bad bullfighting. But what is most important in bullfighting is that it is a way of being a way of standing before life and thereby far transcends the game of the arena."" unknown
