Cappellari Damiano
Alla scoperta del conte Alessandro Magnaguti. L'ultimo cavaliere dei Gonzaga
ill., br. Damiano Cappellari ci porta, come in un diario, lungo un arco temporale di quasi duecento anni alla scoperta del conte mantovano Alessandro Magnaguti (Cerlongo di Goito, 21 settembre 1887 - Sermide, 13 agosto 1966), nummofilo e nummologo, ma anche poeta, scrittore, storico e saggista di portentosa erudizione. Nel viaggio si incontrano persone che lo hanno conosciuto: amici, parenti, servitori; si visitano le sue lussuose dimore: Mantova, Cerlongo e Sermide; si consultano inediti: documenti, dipinti, foto. Tutti elementi che aiutano a narrare la sua vita dipanatasi, senza sconti, lungo tutto il corso del "secolo breve", fra alta nobiltà, due guerre mondiali e una prigionia, nelle carceri di Rovigo, nel periodo più drammatico e cupo della storia d'Italia. Nasce così un dinamico patchwork storico-temporale di ampio respiro in cui trasuda la reale società italiana fatta di contraddizioni, di false apparenze e di disinganni, ma dalla quale, prepotentemente, scaturisce solenne la figura ferma e coerente del Magnaguti, vero "ultimo cavaliere dei Gonzaga", come fu definito, che diventa nostro compagno di viaggio.

Caprarica Antonio
Elisabetta. Per sempre regina. La vita, il regno, i segreti
ril. Un'indagine nella storia, nei luoghi, tra i personaggi dell'ultima grande dinastia reale alla ricerca dell'Elisabetta segreta. Quando Elisabetta salì al trono, nel 1952, Truman governava gli Usa e Stalin guidava l'Urss. Sette decenni più tardi, dopo la fine dell'Impero britannico, il crollo del comunismo, diverse tragedie collettive e da ultimo perfino la peggiore pandemia da un secolo in qua, lei è ancora al suo posto, anacronistica nei suoi completi pastello come nella sua rigida etichetta, impassibile di fronte alle tempeste e agli scandali che si sono accumulati nella vita della famiglia reale: dai vari divorzi alla morte di Diana, dai sex affair del principe Andrea alla ribellione di Harry e Meghan. Se gli avvenimenti sollevano più di un interrogativo sulla sopravvivenza della Corona, è innegabile però che la regina, dopo aver consacrato la sua lunga vita alla monarchia, sia ormai universalmente il simbolo del suo Paese. A lei, che ben pochi possono vantarsi di conoscere, Antonio Caprarica ha dedicato un'indagine penetrante e documentatissima, seguendone la storia fin dalla nascita e dal ribaltamento della linea dinastica che le regalerà la corona dopo l'abdicazione di Edoardo VIII, le cui simpatie naziste preoccupavano gli ambienti politici non meno del suo legame con la divorziata Wallis Simpson. In ciascuna delle tappe il giornalista, il maggiore esperto italiano della Casa Reale, va alla ricerca dell'Elisabetta segreta, dei sentimenti, dei sogni, dei tormenti nascosti dietro la maschera offerta ai sudditi e ai media nelle situazioni ufficiali. Un'occasione per ripercorrere i momenti più significativi di un regno punteggiato di record e per avvicinare, attraverso un racconto appassionante, una donna straordinaria che, qualunque sarà la sorte della dinastia, sarà regina.

Caprarica Antonio
Intramontabile Elisabetta
ill., br. Per i detrattori è "Elisabetta la Lunga", la sovrana senza qualità particolari, dotata della sola virtù della longevità. Per la grande maggioranza degli inglesi, e anche per qualche convinto repubblicano, è l'amato e indiscusso simbolo della nazione e della grandezza del Paese. Per i media è un'icona mondiale. Chi è dunque, e chi è stata, nei novant'anni della sua vita, Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor? Per rispondere a questa curiosità Antonio Caprarica, che ha avuto più occasioni d'incontrarla, ne ha esplorato la storia a partire dalla nascita nella casa londinese di Bruton Street, il 21 aprile 1926, e dall'infanzia trascorsa a Buckingham Palace insieme ai nonni, dai quali ha ereditato la parsimonia fino alla tirchieria e il maniacale rispetto della forma e dei ranghi che ancora oggi le vengono rimproverati. Ha seguito Elisabetta nei viaggi giovanili con Filippo e nelle stanze dove, ad appena ventisei anni, ha imparato l'arte di regnare. L'ha osservata nelle occasioni ufficiali e nelle crisi famigliari ricostruite attraverso le indiscrezioni di corte... Una biografia che ripercorre le cadute e i trionfi di oltre sessant'anni di regno, indaga sulla magia che circonda la monarchia britannica e narra, al tempo stesso, una favola d'altri tempi.

Caprarica Antonio
L'ultima estate di Diana
br. Il 28 agosto 1996, giorno in cui il divorzio reale venne ufficializzato, aveva segnato per Diana l'inizio di una nuova vita. La "principessa triste", schiacciata dal peso della monarchia, che meno di un anno prima aveva confessato pubblicamente la sua fragilità e rivelato i tradimenti del marito, si era trasformata in una persona radiosa, più consapevole, genuinamente interessata alle sorti dei più deboli, decisa a difendere il rapporto con i figli e il suo diritto alla felicità. Un simbolo di bellezza e sensibilità, che oscurava l'immagine della Corona inglese; il personaggio più appetibile per quei fotografi e reporter che avranno un ruolo non secondario nella sua drammatica fine. Il racconto di Antonio Caprarica prende le mosse da qui, con l'intento di restituire Diana alla sua storia: quella autentica, privata, che la frenesia dei media ha sepolto sotto improbabili rivelazioni, teorie complottistiche e gossip. Il rapporto con il medico pakistano Hasnat Khan - l'unico uomo che non tradì i segreti e le confidenze della principessa -, le campagne umanitarie, le ultime vacanze con i figli, l'incontro con Dodi al-Fayed: i pochi mesi che precedono lo schianto sotto il tunnel dell'Alma, a Parigi, ricostruiti in una narrazione dal ritmo e dalle immagini cinematografiche, mostrano una donna sempre in bilico fra ingenuità e astuzia, generosità e attaccamento ai privilegi. Una donna inquieta ma piena di vita, che con le sue scelte ha lasciato un segno evidente nella storia di una nazione e, a vent'anni dalla scomparsa, continua a esercitare il fascino e la suggestione dei miti.

Royal baby. Vite magnifiche e viziate degli eredi al trono
br. Cosa significa per un bambino essere l'erede al trono? All'apparenza, godere di privilegi inarrivabili per i comuni mortali, ma in realtà, ieri come oggi, anche essere sottoposti a regole e modelli di comportamento che sembrano studiati apposta per creare dei disadattati in lotta col proprio destino. Ne sa qualcosa Carlo d'Inghilterra, il più longevo pretendente alla Corona, al quale il libro dedica un vivace e accurato ritratto: a tre anni ha già imparato a fare l'inchino alla bisnonna, la regina Mary, e a quattordici viene spedito in un collegio gelido e isolato dove subisce, insieme a una disciplina da caserma, anche le umiliazioni dei bulli con cui divide la camerata. E se oggi i suoi figli e nipoti godono di trattamenti molto meno severi, l'attenzione ossessiva dei mass media rende l'esistenza di tutti loro piuttosto scomoda. Spostandosi avanti e indietro nel tempo, infilandosi nelle residenze reali di tutta Europa, Antonio Caprarica registra con brio e gusto per i particolari gli aspetti più significativi e curiosi della vita e dell'educazione di giovani principi e principesse: infanzie dorate o complessate; disgrazie scolastiche di zucconi coronati; eccessi e debiti di giovani viziosi; amori borghesi che si scontrano con la ragion di Stato. Le stanze dei bambini diventano così un insolito punto di osservazione per scrivere un nuovo, originale capitolo della storia delle famiglie reali. E per indagare, attraverso le vite di famosi eredi - la regina Vittoria, Carlo e William d'Inghilterra, Vittorio Emanuele III di Savoia, Felipe di Spagna, Harald di Norvegia e altri ancora - il senso attuale di una istituzione che affida le sorti delle Nazioni a una lotteria genetica.

Caprarica Antonio
William & Harry. Da inseparabili a nemici
ril. Davvero è Meghan Markle, la bellissima ex attrice americana, la causa della fuga di Harry dalla prigione dorata di Buckingham Palace, oppure è il seme dell'irrequietezza, di quell'ansia di libertà ereditata dalla madre che ha spinto il duca di Sussex oltreoceano? Poteva la sola influenza di una donna sbriciolare il rapporto fra due fratelli apparsi inseparabili per trent'anni? Il solido legame affettivo suscitato dalla dolcezza di Diana è evidente nelle tristissime immagini del settembre 1997, in cui i ragazzi seguono a capo chino il feretro della madre. Due orfani uniti dalla disperazione di una perdita immensa e dal ricordo di una felicità irrecuperabile, che entrambi manterranno vivo negli anni a seguire. Il talento di affascinare il mondo - lo stesso della principessa Diana - ha permesso a William e Harry di superare gli scivoloni e i passi falsi in cui sono incappati da giovani. E così sono arrivati a incarnare un diverso modello di monarchia, più popolare, calorosa e sensibile alle buone cause. Per questo, adesso, la loro inimicizia diventa storia e va a incidere sulle dinamiche del Palazzo e sul futuro di una Corona indebolita dal declino fisico della regina Elisabetta. In questo nuovo capitolo dell'inesauribile saga dei Windsor Antonio Caprarica ne ricostruisce le fasi più recenti, scandagliando il complicato vincolo di affetto e parentela che ha saldato le vite dei due principi, l'uno destinato al trono e l'altro al ruolo di «erede di scorta». Con l'acutezza e la ricchezza di dettagli che gli sono abituali, il più grande esperto italiano della Corte britannica mostra le radici e i significati nascosti di vicende che continuano a tenere la scena mondiale e a suscitare l'interesse e la curiosità di un pubblico vastissimo.

Giulia Farnese la bella. Amori, potere, storia, arte e mito in antica nobiltà
br. Giulia Farnese fu una delle donne più belle e più potenti del suo tempo e, per oltre un decennio, a cavallo tra il XV e il XVI secolo, un'importante protagonista della storia italiana. Discendente da parte della madre del papa Bonifacio VIII, fu sorella di un altro papa, Paolo III, amica di Lucrezia Borgia e amante del famoso Rodrigo Borgia, diventato papa con il nome di Alessandro VI. Fu la vera artefice della fortuna dei Farnese, che, per mezzo della sua influenza e del suo ascendente sul pontefice, da piccoli nobili di provincia diventarono una delle più grandi famiglie italiane del Rinascimento, con autorità e prestigio anche sullo scenario politico europeo. Conobbe i più grandi artisti e letterati dell'epoca e diventò amica d'influenti uomini politici e religiosi, ma fu condannata, nei secoli, a vedere associati il proprio nome e la propria bellezza alla relazione scandalosa con il Borgia, che le procurò gli appellativi blasfemi di "Sposa di Cristo" e di "Venere Papale". Nell'ultimo periodo della sua vita, più matura, ricca e indipendente, diventò la signora di Carbognano, un piccolo centro rurale con castello, in provincia di Viterbo. Le cronache dell'epoca raccontano che fu un'abile, energica e giusta amministratrice, generosa con la popolazione del paese e dotata di un grande senso di carità verso i poveri, ma soprattutto verso le donne e le ragazze del suo piccolo feudo.

I Farnese del ramo di Latera e Farnese
ill., br. Il libro ripercorre la storia del «ramo minore» della famiglia Farnese, quello di Latera e Farnese, la cui esistenza è stata spesso posta in ombra dalla storiografia nazionale, per lo più concentrata sulle vicende e sui personaggi del «ramo maggiore» di Castro e Ronciglione e di Parma e Piacenza. I Farnese di Latera e Farnese, al pari dei parenti più illustri, si distinsero per la loro accorta politica dei matrimoni, per l'esercizio delle armi in forme nuove e strategiche, per l'audacia di alcune iniziative e, non ultimo, per il loro mecenatismo artistico. Partendo dalle umili campagne della Tuscia viterbese arrivarono a esercitare il loro potere in città grandi e potenti come Roma, Firenze, Parma e Bologna. Con Isabella Farnese (suor Francesca, fondatrice delle Monache farnesiane) «rischiarono» addirittura di onorare la loro stirpe con una santa.

CAPT LOUIS MCKEEHAN
1941 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY OF A CRITICALLY TIMED TRIP TO WAR TORN ENGLAND BY AN AMERICAN PHYSICIST WHOSE DETERMINATION AND OUTSIDE-THE-BOX THINKING WILL PERFECT THE ART OF TORPEDO WARFARE
LONDON ENGLAND GREAT BRITAIN UK 1941. On offer is a super very interesting historic original World War II manuscript diary handwritten by American physicist Capt. Louis McKeehan 1887-1975 head of the Mine Warfare Branch of the Bureau of Ordnance Director of the Physics Laboratories Yale among other noted positions. The diary is comprised of 37 pages of entries originally in a smallish flip style notebook now mounted four to a page on paper. The diary is a significant record beginning March 10 1941 through to May 25 1941 detailing his hazardous travels to England and a record of his important meetings and appointments and contacts with each diary page filled with many dozens of Government Military and Admiralty personnel not to mention the vast number of doctors and scientists he met with too. Each 5 x 2¾ note page is filled with data meticulously written as befits a scientist of his calibre. Historians and researchers will understand that this trip is many months before America would enter the War and there was controversy that America should have any involvement while clandestine efforts to assist England were on going. In fact the Lend Lease Act would be passed in Congress the very next day the Captain's trip starts. It is also to be noted this trip occurs at a desperate time for the British. Setbacks in Italy Greece and the terror of the air bombing campaign were all part of the backdrop to this narrative. BIO NOTES: McKeehan's life makes for a fascinating story of a dedicated 'outside the box thinker'. He took leave of his teaching position to help out with the war effort. He was the driving force behind the creation of the torpedo called Fido. Scientists at the Naval Torpedo Station at Newport Rhode Island had been considering acoustic homing torpedoes for fifteen years but insisted that torpedoes made too much noise themselves to be able to home on any external noise source and until McKeehan came along to challenge them they seemed to have a point. But McKeehan was not a career naval officer. He was a reserve officer on active duty for the duration whose peacetime job was director of the physics laboratories at Yale University. Unimpressed by the received wisdom of Navy engineers McKeehan turned to HUSL and BTL where his idea for an acoustic homing torpedo quickly bore fruit. With support and funding from the NDRC HUSL and BTL proved Newport wrong and only seventeen months after the beginning of the project Fido had entered service and made his first kill. After the war the scientists at Bell Labs who had worked on Fido returned to telephone work Captain McKeehan returned to Yale and Harvard - like some other universities - anxious to shed the military connection as soon as possible took back its buildings and ended its classified work. BIO NOTES: Louis McKeehan was among other things author of Yale Science: The First Hundred Years 1701-1801 New York: H. Schuman 1947. . Good. 32mo - over 4" - 5" tall. Manuscript. unknown

Captain Albert Henry Burwell and Captain Henry Borland Tasker
1882-1884 Captains Log for the First 17 Voyages of the British Warren Lines Steamship Kansas Which Sailed between Liverpool and Boston
AT SEA Liverpool Boston New Brunswick. Very Good. Hardcover. On offer is the handwritten ships log for the first 17 voyages of the Scottish-built British-owned SS Kansas owned by the passenger steamship line George Warren & Company now the Warren Line in Liverpool. The log book contains the Captains handwritten log for the first 17 voyages of the SS Kansas occurring between May 1882 and April 1884. The SS Kansas sailed between Liverpool and Boston sometimes stopping in New Brunswick. It was built by Charles Connell & Company Glasgow Scotland. Its engine was built by John and James Thomson also of Glasgow. Historical records show that the SS Kansas was launched on January 19 1882 and set sail on its first voyage between Liverpool and Boston on May 21 1882. The log shows that the maiden voyage sailed with 100 passengers from Liverpool to Boston from Boston to St. John New Brunswick and then back to Liverpool arriving on July 4 1882. The SS Kansas inaugural captain was Albert Henry A. H. Burwell 1833-1882. Burwell was a Boston native who died of Rheumatic Fever while at sea on September 9 1882 during the third voyage of the SS Kansas. His death is recorded in a handwritten In Memoriam sic box at the bottom of the Remarks page. Burwells first mate Henry Borland Harry Tasker 1846-1889. Tasker was a native of Liverpool married to Mary Ellen Simcock Tasker 1847-1917 whose obituary was found tipped-in to the ships log. SEE BIO NOTES FOR MORE ON CAPTAINS BURWELL AND TASKER. For each of the 17 voyages the captain records their name the locations between which they are sailing daily coordinates course winds and remarks regarding the weather and other details and details on each voyages coal consumption revolutions and distance. This is a fascinating look into the daily record keeping of 19th century mariners and provides insight into the capabilities of the SS Kansas and the daily struggles encountered by 19th century commercial sailors. It may also be of interest to genealogists who are piecing together timelines for those who sailed aboard the SS Kansas. The book contains approximately 70 pages with writing front and back on about 85% of the pages. It appears a number of pages were ripped out of the back of the book though it does not appear voyages were tracked beyond the 17th. The book itself measures approximately 7.5x4.5 inches. The seams are extremely loose and many pages are detached. Strangely the first page of the records for the SS Kansas maiden voyage is out of order and is connected to the first page of the documentation for the 3rd voyage. The pages are all present and only that one appears to be out of order. The hard covers spine and binding are in poor condition though the book is intact. The handwriting is very legible and the pages are all intact aside from those missing at the back. Overall Fair to Poor.

CAPTAIN ANGUS RICHARDS
1901 - 1902 ORIGINAL HANDWRITTEN LOG BOOK OF THE MANY TRIPS OF THE SCHOONER KIPLING FROM NOVA SCOTIA TO BRAZIL AND THE CARIBBEAN PROVIDING AN EXCELLENT LOOK AT EARLY 20TH CENTURY AMERICAN SAILING COMMERCE
HALIFAX NOVA SCOTIA to BRAZIL & CARIBBEAN. Good. 1901. On offer is a curious and original manuscript relic of ocean going commerce being the log book of an ill fated vessel called the Schooner "Kipling" whose commander Captain Angus Richards details a journey from Halifax to Pernambuco Brazil in 1901-1902. The 175 page or so handwritten log is in many ways typical of sea faring logs kept since the age of sail. There are included within the pages a detailed weather conditions ship position cargo information stray observations and condition reports. The log begins From La Have towards Halifax on the 27th of February 1901. Next the ship is in the Port of Halifax on April 18. The entries while the ship are at port are the most expositional focusing mostly on observations and not the precise calculations of the ships navigation. From Halifax the schooner travels toward Pernambuco then Barbados on May 4 arriving there on May 16 returning to Halifax on June 7 continuing from there to LeHave and Liverpool where they took on a load of lumber bound for the island of Antigua. They arrive in Antigua July 26 proceeding to Barbados reaching there on August 8. From there they go on to Puerto Rico and ports of Humacao and Fajardo picking up a load of molasses. From Fajardo they set sail for St. John New Brunswick on August 27. Other ports of call include Boston with final entries dated November 22nd dropping anchor in Getson's Cove in Lunenburg County Nova Scotia and getting ready to go out again to sea however where the ship is going is unwritten. The Schooner Kipling would eventually sink off the coast of Maine in January 1906 and all seven members of the ship miraculously survived. The story is quite interesting for anyone interested. The log book is 13 1/4 x 8 1/4 inches. Its a bit worn its edges but generally in pretty good condition. The front cover reads Ship - Kipling; Captain - Angus Richards; From - Halifax; To - Pernambuco. The hardcover is covered in marbled paper with a leather spine and sold by Creighton & Marshall 64 Upper Water Street near the Ordinance Halifax NS.

CAPTAIN CHARLES SANDERSON
1919 ORIGINAL SUPERB DIARY OF THE LAST YEAR OF WORLD WAR 1 HANDWRITTEN BY THE ACTING CAPTAIN OF A MACHINE GUN CORPS COMPANY FIGHTING AND LIVING THROUGH THE LAST GASPS OF THE GERMAN ARMY IN NORTHERN FRANCE AND BELIGUM
NORD FRANCE FLANDERS YPRES LYS BELIGUM. Good. 1918. On offer is the exemplary and fascinating wartime diary of Lieutenant Charles Sanderson of the Machine Gun Corps of the British Army. The diary covers the entire year of 1918 the last of World War 1. Kept against orders it is very rare to find such a detailed diary outside the archives of the Imperial War Museum or regimental collections. Sanderson notes all the place names and identifies brigades so that it is possible to follow in detail the final stages of the war. In the beginning of the diary Sanderson is in Amiens France. "Wednesday January 1918. Went into Amiens by Lorry from D.H.Q. Arrived at 9.00am. Bought Christmas Dinner for Company. Stayed all night at the Hotel de L'Univers. Coy. relieved in line by 7th Coy." The diary entries are most often short and concise matter-of-fact jottings on what was done by his company that day and the movements of other companies and officers: "Received orders for Coy. to go into line tomorrow. Won 35 fr. at Bridge."; "Rode toward Bgde. 195 Coy. in morning to 200 Coy. A.S.C. in afternoon. Went to Benatre at night to fetch in broken down G.S. wagon belonging to Bgde. H.Q."; "Rest of Br. Transport turned up in late morning. Nothing doing all day."; "Marches from Bois de Courton at 4.00 am and arrive at Germaine about 9.0 am. Entrains at 5.30 pm and detrains at Fere en Champenois at 9.30 pm. Went in lorries to Bn. at Corroy." There are also numerous entries of the fighting around him and his company. "Heavy bombing again at night. Bombs all round us but nothing hit at all in our Brigade."; "Aeroplanes about again but no bombs dropped near us."; "Badly bombed at night. 199 Coy. A.S.C. lost all their horses." In March Sanderson has leave for two weeks. He travels back to London to be with his family. "March 1. Arrived Boulogne about 6.15am. Had breakfast at E.F.C. embarked 8.30 am. Rough passage. Arrived London 2.30 pm. Went to palladium at night with Uncle Laura."; "March 9. Played golf with Dad Upjohn and T. Roman. Went to Upjohn's afterwards to play cards"; "March 15. Crossed to france in afternoon and stayed the night at the Cafe de la Pork." He is back with his company by the 17th. His company then moves onto Bucquoy France then Bonneville then Armentieres in Flanders. Here they see combat. "April 8. Attack south of Armentieres began. Part of 74th Coy. went up at night. Rode over to Free's Cashier at Ravesburg in morning." This is the beginning of the "Battle of the Lys" also known as the Lys Offensive the Fourth Battle of Ypres the Fourth Battle of Flanders and Operation Georgette which would last from April 7 to the 29th. The month of April is filled with entries about this battle. "April 10. Still at Ravelsburg but expect to move at any time. Took ammunation up to Petite Monque Farm at night."; April 14. Moved from field near Berthen to Boechepe - Abelle Road. Mess in at Boechepe. Took rations up to Dranoutre but could ot find men."; "April 22. Walked over to R. E. Park and to 199 Coy. A.S.C. in afternoon. Played bridge in evening with Dr. and Aycock and won 5 fr."; April 26. Attacked in morning & retook Kemmel Hill. Had to come back on French did not move." April 30. Heavy bombardment during day but no infantry attacked." After the Battle Sanderson takes leave in Paris: "May 17. Still in Paris having a hell of a time. Bolam & Markielle returned in evening. Went to Casino de Paris but had to leave early as there was air raid warning." After Paris he returns to his company and the trials and tribulations of war return: "May 27. Bosche attack started at 10 am. Drove us back. Moved transport back to Bourancourt and then to Lonchery Roady & then to Grevy. Out all night. Looking for Br. H.Q. and rations." Boche is a French slang word for 'rascal' first applied to German soldiers during World War One "June 16. Italians came to reconnaitre line to relieve us tomorrow night night. Major Courtaullo came up to take Command of Coy." Much of the diary follows this pattern. There are long days of his company's movement going to where they are needed and there are days where attacks and battles are witnessed and fought. In between all the moving and fighting Sanderson has his leaves from the military. These passages are much more detailed and jubilant than all the others for obvious reason. Whether in line or on leave Sanderson is quite the gambler and many passages end with him playing poker and winning or losing money. As the war nears its end there are still occasional entries of battle. In the end of October and the early part of November the last weeks of the War Sanderson sees heavy fighting in Northern France and Beligum. "October 16. Did attack with 55th Div. not a big success and had lot of casualties. Stayed with S.A. Bgde. in tavern W. on Montay."; "October 17. Still in same place with guns gradually pushing forward."; October 23. Operated with 7th 75th Bgds. in attack east of Le Calean. Took L'Eveque Wood. Moved from Quenette Farm to Pommereuil in morning living with combined Bgde. H.Q."; "November 4. Started fresh attack from neighbourhood of Fontaine au Bois. All going well. Went up to take over 'C' Coy. after Lime was wounded. Move in evening from Le Fause.; "November 6. Advanced again with guns moving behind advanced guard. Moved up with 7th Bgde. in evening to Faisniere. Put 8 guns in outpost line in evening Rept. 8 in reserve in Dompiere." The war ends on November 11: "November 11. 'Cease Fire' went at 11.00 am. So nothing more done except 'Celebration.'' The rest of the diary is comprised of pretty short entries: of parades church salvage duty and other post-war activities. On December 31st he writes: "Very wet all day & nothing doing. Months leave approved by XIII Corps. Made money in the evening at bridge." After the diary entries there are a number of detailed pages of 'Cash Accounts" that show all the money Recieved from and Paid to throughout the year. The book is roughly 100 pages long with almost every single entry on every page written in. There is a green cloth cover and structurally the book is in very good shape. Sanderson writes in pen with no smudge marks and his handwriting is very easy to read. Included as well is thin blue "Army Book 439" which was issued to every combatant officer below the rank of Lieutannt-Colonel. It has much personal and military information of Sanderson including army courses taken service record promotions received 1st Lieutenant - June 1st 1917; Captain - May 29 1918 and an employment form for when discharged from the Machine Gun Corps. The book is also in very good condition and is 12 pages long.; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF CAPTAIN CHARLES SANDERSON ACTING CAPTAIN LAST YEAR OF WW1 WORLD WAR ONE MACHINE GUN CORPS BRITISH M.G.C.

CAPTAIN CHARLES EDWIN GOOD
LATE 1880s EARLY 1890s ORIGINAL SCRAPBOOK OF OVER 400 ILLUSTRATIONS CUT OUTS AND PHOTOGRAPHS ALL PERTAINING TO THE AUTHORS DEEP AND WILDLY PASSIONATE MARRIAGE TO ALL THINGS PERTAINING TO THE OCEAN
BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS MA. Good. 1890. On offer is a rare and one-of-a-kind love song of sorts a scrapbook of the people places and vessels that make up the allure of the sea and the life of a steamboat Captain. The book is question is a fantastic scrapbook featuring roughly 400 illustrations spread out of over 145 pages. There are also hundreds of clippings from newspapers magazines and books and over 20 photographs pasted onto thick paper. The owner of the book and creator of this wholly unique book is the Steamboat Captain Charles Edwin Good captain of the steamer Rose Standish. Charles E. Good was a steamboat Captain for the Boston & Hingham Steamboat Company and the Rose Standish was a passenger steamer that carried passengers between Boston Hull and Hingham Massachusetts. The frontispiece shows a sepia-toned photograph of the steamer in question the Rose Standish along with a name is all capital letters C. E. GOOD. The title page states him as Married to things pertaining to the ocean. What he is married to are all the illustrations photographs and clippings that make up this extraordinary book: various cultures and people; exotic places; shipwrecks and petulant weather; deserted isles; ports of call around the world; steamers sloops-of-war ferries ironclads frigates and all manners of sailing vessel; naval battles contemporary and classic; canals docks and harbors; rivers and oceans; Leviathans and other sea monsters; and so much more relating to the sea and all that comes with it. This is truly a scrapbook created by a man who loves the ocean and the sea and the extraordinary range of human activities that come with the sailing life. Near the end of the book come the photographs black and white and split evenly between photographs of beautiful masted sailing vessels and of shorelines and harbors and Capes. The photographers name is visible on one of the photographs: Charles L. Hovey. The author photographs have no name attributed to them but the style of the photographs is so similar it would seem most likely that they are Hoveys work as well. The illustrations and such date from the late 1880s to the early 1890s so it is likely that this was scrapbook was put together after Charles Good had retired from the Boston & Hingham Steamboat Company and the sailing life. He would die in 1894. The front cover also has the name of his son Charles Morse Good and the date 1896 possibly when he inherited the book from the estate of his recently deceased father. There is also written in pencil provenancial information stating the book was purchased in 1973 from the author Elizabeth Coatsworth Beston and written by a man named John P. Richardson. This is a brilliant and exceptionally unique scrapbook of one mans lifelong love to the sailing the ocean. It is a treasure that deserves to be cherished and preserved. The book is 7 ½ x 9 ¾ inches in hardcover. There are worn marbled boards with what is left of leather corners and spine and the spines entire leather backstrips gone. The binding is still tight however. There are about 3 or 4 pages that have detached from the binding. There is light to moderate foxing on some of the photograph plates but overall the pages are still in good condition. background: Charles Edwin Good was born at Hallowell Maine Oct. 4 1836; married in Hingham Elizabeth J. Easterbrook a daughter of shipmaster Samuel Easterbrook 1810-1883;; resided on Cottage Street. Good died on Aug. 27 1894 of consumption better known today as Tuberculosis. The steamer Rose Standish carried passengers between Boston Hull and Hingham about eleven miles down Boston Bay. She had a saloon on the upper deck. Built in 1863 at Brooklyn NY; was sunk by a collision with a tugboat in the Boston harbor on Aug. 28 1884; was raised and repaired. She seems to have lasted until at least 1920. After that I could find no more information on her.
