GEORGE JAMES TOMLIN CAPTAIN ROYAL NAVY
1882 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT BY NAVAL CAPTAIN OF THE BOMBARDMENT OF ALEXANDRIA AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE PORT
ABOARD THE HMS ALEXANDRA EGYPT. Very Good. 1882. On offer is the original manuscript eyewitness account of the Bombardment of Alexandria Egypt between July 11th - 13th 1882 handwritten by participant Captain George James Tomlin Royal Navy 1837 - 1906. This is a superb primary source account by a Royal Navy Officer and a participant in the bombardment augmented by photographic material and as such rare and unique. Captain George J. Tomlin the second generation in a line of four men who all became Royal Navy Officers. He was on board HMS Alexandra during the British assault on Alexandria and provides a detailed first-hand account of the battle. He notes: 'the Alexandra was struck about 30 times to the hull. she had 1 man killed and 30 wounded'. The narrative describes the battle and both collectors and historians will be impressed by the details provided in the written manuscript. Tomlin lists the participating ships their guns losses method of attack etc. and also comments on political figures such as Admiral Seymour Prime Minister Gladstone and Colonel Urabi; 'during the bombardment 700 out of 1200 Egyptians were killed outright.' The Bombardment of Alexandria 1882 by the British Mediterranean Fleet took place on 11-13 July 1882. Admiral Sir Frederick Beauchamp Seymour was in command of a fleet of about 15 Royal Navy ironclad ships which sailed to Alexandria when a riot broke out and Europeans were killed. The Royal Navy arrived in the port city to protect the lives and property of British subjects. When the forces of Colonel Urabi began augmenting their port fortifications the Admiral issued an ultimatum to stop and when the Egyptians didn't stop fortifying their positions the fleet attacked. The one-day bombardment of the city was successful in defeating all of the Egyptian forts with no loss of British ships but the next day a fire broke out and the areas of Alexandria in which Europeans made their homes were predominant burned down. This important historic archive is befittingly contained in a stunning contemporary specifically made premium folio sized folder made of marbleized papers leather spine and gilt title treatment to protect the sixteen 16 leaves of the twenty 20 page narrative together with one large photograph of Dutch House in Port Said with HMS Invincible and HMS Alexandra at anchor one photograph of the Officers and Ladies of HMS Alexandra as well as one photograph of a formation of British Army soldiers as well as four 4 further photographs of various Europeans in Egypt. The manuscript and portrait are in very good condition.

SOPHIE MOUCHEZ et al TO Amedee Ernest Barthelemy Mouchez, Admiral of the French Navy and Great Astronomer
1840s-1890s LARGE ARCHIVE OF 47 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT LETTERS TO THE FAMED ASTRONOMER ADMIRAL INVENTOR AND AUTHOR ERNEST MOUCHEZ FROM HIS SISTER CABINET MINISTERS FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES
France. Very Good. 1846. Manuscript. On offer is an outstanding archive of forty-seven 47 letters from the personal files of famed Admiral of the French Navy and Great Astronomer Amédée Ernest Barthélemy Mouchez. The archive dates 1846 through 1891 and is made up of a few letters from his sister a letter to his mother and then the balance from colleagues notables and friends; a number are on stationery of the Republic of France; Sociedad Cientifica "Antonio Alzate" Mexico; Ecole Normale Superieure Laboratoire de Chime; Senat and some French Ministerial Office letterheads. This fascinating archive touches upon many of Mouchez' career highlights as the letters deal with a number of different areas - Mouchez' work in China matters of the Observatory Mexico personal communications of friends and colleagues etc. Mouchez had a spectacular career embarking on a career in the French Navy as an ensign in 1843. This was a period of relative international maritime peace and much of the navy's activities were dedicated to exploration and discovery. Mouchez was initially occupied with hydrographic studies along the coasts of Korea China and South America penetrating 320 km up the Paraguay River and exploring the Abrolhos Islands. He improved the practice of surveying at sea adapting terrestrial instruments for naval use and was especially concerned with the problems of determining longitude. He developed the use of the theodolite and meridian telescope to improve the error in establishing longitude. Attaining the rank of Captain in 1868 he embarked on a series of expeditions to chart the coast of Algeria. At the conclusion of his project in 1873 he was elected to the Bureau des Longitudes and in the following year was sponsored by the Académie des Sciences to observe the transit of Venus from St. Paul Island in the Indian Ocean. On December 9 he made a sequence of superb photographic plates of the event. In 1875 the Académie elected him a member of the astronomy section and in 1878 he was promoted to rear admiral and awarded the role of director of the Paris Observatory. The observatory had fallen into disrepair and disrepute since the chaos of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and the Paris Commune of 1871. Mouchez set about a programme of reconstruction but failed to persuade the government to fund a new observatory outside the centre of Paris. In 1887 he collaborated with Sir David Gill to host an international astronomical conference in Paris. The principal outcome of the conference was a multi-national project to compile and index a photographic atlas of the heavens the Carte du Ciel. The project consumed massive effort over several decades before it was rendered obsolete by modern astronomical methods. He is also credited with founding Mountsouris Observatory and he is the author of six books on astronomy navigation nautical instruction etc. A grand boulevard in Le Havre and a village in Algeria are named for Mouchez. This is a great archive of intersecting and diverse worlds being astronomy France and her Navy Algeria militaria geography cartography and South America.
