SECOND BOER WAR
The Qakamba.
Umtata and Cape Town: issue 1 A. L. Middleton Umtata; the remainder Dennis Edwards & Co. 1898-99. Chronicling regimental life in South Africa An unusual near-complete run of this rare regimental periodical created for and by the Cape Mounted Rifles preserved with notable ephemera from the Boer War and originating from its "prime mover" Sir Harry Charles St Lo Malet who served as a corporal in the regiment. Provenance is recorded in an inscription by his son Sir Edward William St Lo Malet noting his father's role in founding the magazine before joining the 8th King's Royal Irish Hussars. Harry St Lo Malet transferred from the CMR in December 1900 later serving with distinction in both the Boer War and the First World War earning the DSO and OBE. Additional postal evidence links the volume to the family home in Maidenhead. The run comprises 17 of 19 issues: the complete sequence from May 1898 to August 1899 plus the final number November 1899. Only four institutions in South Africa appear to hold complete sets. Qakamba - apparently a Xhosa or Nguni-derived term referring to the regiment's distinctive bullet-shaped forage cap - was a comparatively polished regimental magazine offering news verse sports and regimental "chit-chat". The Cape Mounted Rifles originated as a colonial gendarmerie in 1855 and became part of the regular army in 1878. During the Second Boer War they served in Colonel Brabant's Colonial Division praised by the Marquess of Anglesey as "the most important body of colonials". Contemporary observers admired their combination of regular-army discipline with deep knowledge of Boer tactics and the terrain. The accompanying ephemera is of particular interest. It includes Francis William Reitz's manifesto of the Orange Free State an eight-page bilingual open letter attacking British policy reportedly circulated widely and read in Parliament annotated as having been "picked up in the Town Hall on the occupation of Ficksburg". Also present is a satirical "Government Gazette Extraordinary Vryheid District 17 August 1901" ridiculing Kitchener's 7 August surrender proclamation and threatening in mock-official style to "banish" British officers unless they depart by 15 September. Further items include a Boer identity card for Carl Pieter van Rooyen of the Vryheid Commando; a brief manuscript receipt by Lt. Geo. W. Ogilvie acknowledging 49 prisoners on 15 May 1900; and a contemporary newspaper cutting on the Siege of Wepener April 1900 annotated in pencil. The 16-day defence of Wepener - later commemorated by a clasp to the Queen's South Africa Medal - was a key action for the Cape Mounted Rifles. 17 issues bound in 1 vol. quarto 245 x 183 mm; extent of each issue between 16 and 24 pages with continuous pagination. Illustrated throughout from photographs original artwork and line-drawings wrappers carrying advertisements for local businesses. Contemporary dark brown half morocco for H. Sotheran & Co. preserving the original printed wrappers tawny morocco twin labels Double Marble gold vein patterned sides and endpapers top edge gilt. Binding just a little rubbed wrappers slightly dusty overall very good.

[MEXICAN REVOLUTION - GUERRA DE LA FRONTERA] Various Photographers and Publishers
Archive of Eighty-two Photographic Images of the Mexican-American Border Wars in Texas California and Mexico 1908-1915
Various publishers & dates. Extensive photographic archive documenting events on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico Border during the Mexican Revolution focused primarily on the Border Wars in Texas and the Veracruz Incident of 1914 comprised entirely of contemporary images all but a few of which are original vintage prints. The collection includes: <br /> <br /> • Sixty-one commercially-produced real-photo postcards ca. 14cm x 9cm or the reverse; <br /> • Six commercially-printed postcards using non-photographic processes same dimensions;<br /> • Three carte-de-visite portraits ca 9cm x 6cm mounted to cards;<br /> • Eight small-format photographs ranging from 14cm x 8cm to 11cm x 16cm of which three appear to be commercial images; <br /> • Three 8x10 20cm x 25cm photographic prints printed at some later date from original plates but apparently not contemporary; <br /> • One vintage 4x6 10cm x 16cm photograph mounted on board. <br /> <br /> All but a dozen or so images are captioned in the negative and most are additionally captioned in pencil in a later hand on verso. Approximately half the images include no photo credit; of those that do we have identified the following photographers: W.H. Horne D.W. Hoffman Walter P. Hadsell Van Zile & Chalk and L.O. She. <br /> <br /> Condition is generally Very Good. Two of the photo postcards are damaged with abrasions to significant portions of image area; the remainder show various degrees of edge wear aging and creasing but by and large image quality remains excellent. None of the postcards are postally used though a few include brief contemporary notes on verso. The refusal of Mexican President Porfirio Dîaz to cede power to his rival Francisco Madero in the elections of 1910 resulted in a violent large-scale revolt by campesinos and leftists setting off the thirty-year long Mexican Revolution. American involvement in the conflict began in 1911 when President William H. Taft under the guise of heightening border security moved to back Díaz against the rebels. The resulting mobilization - Taft sent more than 20000 American troops nearly a quarter of all American forces to the Mexican border with especially heavy concentrations in Texas and New Mexico - was to that date the largest mobilization of American military forces in peacetime. At the same time many Americans whose sympathies were not aligned with the Díaz dictatorship including anarchists wobblies Native Americans and more than a few soldiers of fortune went south to fight on the side of the rebels. The resulting border conflict which took place over nearly a decade occasionally pitting American insurrectos against American Federal troops resulted in thousands of Mexican and hundreds of American deaths. <br /> <br /> The Border Wars reached their climax around the period 1912-1914 which happened to coincide with a near-hysterical vogue for postcards among the American public. The result is that the Mexican Revolution is perhaps the first major armed conflict to have been extensively photo-documented in real time and certainly the first to have had a significant mass audience for that documentation. At least three hundred commercial photographers have been identified in association with the Mexican Revolution and they produced tens of thousands of images ranging from the relatively innocuous e.g. peaceful street and harbor scenes in Veracruz to the horrific lynchings and sidewalk cremations. <br /> <br /> This entire range of content is represented in the current collection along with portraits of most of the key players on the Mexican side including El Presidente Porfirio Díaz; his primary rival and successor Francisco Madero; Madero's successor by coup Victoriano Huerta; and various military figures including General Juan Navarro Felipe Angeles Ramírez and numerous others. Many of these semi-professional images though produced with commercial intent "professional" remains a guarded term in the context of what was essentially battlefield exploitation photography are valuable for their almost off-hand depictions of violent day-to-day life on the contested border including the casual destruction and acceptance of death from both sides that seemed to define this conflict. Of particular note are numerous of photographs of African-American troops the so-called "Buffalo Soldiers" as well as at least one image depicting Native American soldiers in uniform. Locales represented include Camp Grossmont in California; El Paso and Laredo in Texas and their cross-border sister cities Juarez and Nuevo Laredo; Veracruz site of the American incursion of 1914 known as the "Veracruz Incident"; and various unidentified encampments and battle sites in both Texas and Mexico. <br /> <br /> A wide-ranging and compelling photographic collection documenting not only a key period in U.S. military diplomacy - one which for better or worse set the tone for American-Mexican relations for the succeeding century - but also a tangible manifestation of the first widespread public incarnation in America of the picture-postcard as a vehicle for both propaganda and photojournalism. unknown

SMYTH, Henry DeWolf (1898-1986); United States War Department Corps of Engineers
A General Account of the Development of Methods of Using Atomic Energy for Military Purposes Under the Auspices of the United States Government 1940-1945.
Washington D.C.:: Government Printing Office 1945. 1945. 10x7 inches Sm. 4to. 193 pp. With page IV-7 printed upside down IV-8 positioned correctly. After the unpaged front matter which is printed on one side of the leaf each chapter has separate pagination and the pages of the Appendices are numbered A1-1 and so forth." Original cream-colored textured card-wrappers lithoprinted on the front "Released for Publication on _________" side-stapled 2; corners curled variously soiled representative of 'normal' exposure. Signature of M.J. Coffee. Good. / PROVENANCE: "M.J. Coffee / Rm 213 Chemistry Bldg. / Ohio State Univ. / Columbus Ohio" With an inscribed index card "This is my copy of the A-Bomb record sent to all the people who were instrumental in perfecting the bomb used on Hiroshima Nagasaki. It was sent out after the war to people who worked for the Manhattan Project. I was at the Ohio State University in Columbus Ohio." FIRST OFFICIAL PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT ON THE MANHATTAN PROJECT :: THE CREATION OF THE ATOMIC BOMB. LIMITED EDITION of about 1000 copies. Jones. First official government statement printed and released on August 12 1945 solely for persons related to the project and the press being the first printed account of the development of the Manhattan Project and the atomic bomb issued just six days after the bombing of Hiroshima. The lithoprinting was done in the Adjunct General's Office in the Pentagon. / Coleman describes the conditions by which this book was put together "It is apparent that gathering the leaves for binding was done in haste under the pressure of tight security precautions. Pages are lacking or repeated in several copies that have been seen." :: p. 206. This copy is complete. / "Researchers should note that correspondence dealing with the writing and editing of the Smyth Report is mainly located in Series V Smyth Report. This correspondence appears to have been filed by Smyth with related materials i.e. notes draft manuscripts early printings for several reasons. His primary intent appears to have been continuity; the correspondence discussing his work on the Smyth Report often refers to specific drafts now also filed in Series V. These letters were also often classified "Secret" and "Top Secret" along with his various manuscript versions from 1944 through 1945. These materials remained together over the years while in Smyth's possession periodically undergoing review for declassification as a group by the U.S. AEC. For these reasons as well as the fact that Smyth meticulously arranged Series V himself the correspondence dealing with the Smyth Report has been maintained in its original order and assigned to this separate series. Cross referencing has been done for correspondents who appear in Series V Smyth Report; the existence of letters in Series V has been noted under the appropriate correspondent's name in the Series I section of the container list." :: American Philosophical Society Henry DeWolf Smyth Papers. / In addition page VI-12 contains the sometimes missing "secret" classified content dealing with plutonium production rates. This copy contains both the entire section V and the plutonian production rates from VI-12. / "The story of the development of the atomic bomb by the combined efforts of many groups in the United States is a fascinating but highly technical account of an enormous enterprise. Obviously military security prevents this story from being told in full at this time. However there is no reason why the administrative history of the Atomic Bomb project and the basic scientific knowledge on which the several developments were based should not be available now to the general public. To this end this account by Professor H. D. Smyth is presented./ All pertinent scientific information which can be released to the public at this time without violating the needs of national security is contained in this volume . . ." :: Major General L.R. Groves foreword. / "There was published on 12 August 1945 six days after the atomic attack on Hiroshima the remarkably full and candid account of the development work carried out between 1940 and 1945 by the American-directed by internationally-recruited team of physicists under the code name of 'Manhattan District' which culminated in the production of the first atomic bomb. . . Compiled by Professor Smyth of Princeton a consultant to the 'Manhattan District' project at Los Alamos whose commandant General L.R. Groves provided the foreword 'the Smyth Report' as it is familiarly known was published at one dollar by the U.S. Superintendent of Documents" :: Printing and the Mind of Man 422e. / Smyth 1898-1986 Professor of Physics at Princeton served as a consultant to the Manhattan Project from 1943-45. After the war he was appointed Commissioner of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission from 1949-54. / REFERENCES: Coleman 3 and earliest obtainable issue see: Earle E.
