1865réf. 126391865. Photographer unknown Rodman cannon tintype photograph circa 1860s documents one of the most important classes of heavy artillery used by the United States during the Civil War and in nineteenth-century coastal defense. The image supports research into Union ordnance technology military engineering and the visual culture of large-scale artillery deployment. Rodman guns developed under the direction of ordnance officer Thomas J. Rodman marked a major expansion in American heavy weapons design and photographs of these guns preserve direct evidence of how such artillery was presented maintained and understood in relation to the men who worked around it. Half plate tintype photograph image approximately 4.5 x 7 inches showing three men posed on and beside a large Rodman cannon mounted on a wheeled rail-supported carriage. The gun's immense barrel dominates the composition with its pronounced rounded breech and upper vent area clearly visible. The carriage rests on a circular rail track designed to allow the piece to be traversed for aiming a system associated with fortified coastal positions and heavy defensive artillery. One man stands beside the carriage while two others are seated or leaning along its structure their bodies providing a clear sense of the cannon's scale. Their caps and work clothing suggest artillery personnel or laborers engaged with the weapon and its mounting rather than a purely studio portrait setting. Rodman guns were introduced in the 1850s and became central to American heavy ordnance during the Civil War especially in siege and harbor defense contexts where large-caliber smoothbore cannon were required to fire explosive shells against ships and fixed fortifications. This photograph is valuable not only for the weapon itself but for the relationship it establishes between industrial-scale artillery and the human figures tasked with operating it. The image records mid-nineteenth-century military technology in a direct and legible form with the rail carriage and posed attendants making the engineering purpose immediately visible. Minor surface wear and edge rounding consistent with nineteenth-century tintypes; overall good condition. A strong documentary image of Civil War era heavy artillery and the material scale of Union ordnance production. unknown books

2010réf. 84407New York: Broadway Books 2010. First Edition Stated First Printing Stated. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. xii 532 pages. Notes. Index. Inscribed on the half title page by Carl Cannon. Inscription reads For Bruce Drake A valued colleague and friend. Thanks for working with me so hard. Carl Cannon. Patrick Dillon is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and an award-winning architect. He is the author of seven books including Circle of Greed Truth Lies Gin: The Much-Lamented Death of Madam Geneva and The Last Revolution. Carl M. Cannon born 1953 is an American journalist who as of 2021 is the executive editor and Washington D.C. bureau chief of RealClearPolitics. Cannon was born in California and graduated from the University of Colorado. He worked as a reporter for the San Jose Mercury News the Baltimore Sun and the National Journal before being hired by RealClearPolitics in 2011. At the San Jose Mercury News he was part of the reporting team that was awarded the 1990 Pulitzer Prize in the category of general news reporting for coverage of the Loma Prieta earthquake. In 2003 he was elected president of the White House Correspondents Association. He has also served as a Fellow-in-Residence at the Harvard University Institute of Politics. Cannon the sun of famed journalist Lou Cannon is a recipient of the Aldo Beckman Award for Journalistic Excellence. Circle of Greed is the epic story of the rise and fall of Bill Lerach once the leading class action lawyer in America and now a convicted felon. For more than two decades Lerach threatened shook down and sued top Fortune 500 companies including Disney Apple Time Warner and-most famously-Enron. Now the man who brought corporate moguls to their knees has fallen prey to the same corrupt impulses of his enemies and is paying the price by serving time in federal prison. If there was ever a modern Greek tragedy about a man and his times about corporate arrogance and illusions and the scorched-earth tactics to not only counteract corporate America but to beat it at its own game Bill Lerach's story is it. William "Bill" Shannon Lerach born March 14 1946 Ohio River Valley Midwestern United States is a disbarred lawyer who specialized in private Securities Class Action lawsuits. The $7.12 billion he obtained as the lead plaintiff's attorney in the case against Enron is currently the largest sum ever recovered in a group of securities class-action lawsuits in U.S. history. In 2007 he pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice and was sentenced to two years imprisonment. In 2009 he was disbarred from practicing law in California. As part of the settlement Lerach would not cooperate as a witness and his law firm would be protected from any further prosecution. Over the course of his career it has been estimated that Lerach recovered upward of $45 billion on behalf of defrauded investors. Lerach has stated that about 85% of his cases were brought due to insider trading which he described as "footprints in the snow." In March 2010 a book about Lerach's life and career was published. Circle of Greed: The Spectacular Rise and Fall of the Lawyer Who Brought Corporate America to its Knees was written by journalists Patrick Dillon and Carl M. Cannon. In the same month Lerach and writer Patrick Dillon appeared on KPBS-FM the San Diego NPR affiliate to discuss the book. In his post-law practice years Lerach has regularly lectured in law school classes at the Univ. of San Diego Univ. of CA-Berkeley Univ. of CA-San Diego in La Jolla and Univ. of Southern California discussing his career and many epic battles fighting major corporate fraud and related matters. He has also lectured and been interviewed for many years on the financial crises facing many state pensions and additionally has served as a consultant re litigation in these matters. He has also delivered two compelling lectures describing the battle to recover billions in damages for slave labor and theft of assets during the Holocaust at UC San Diego's Great Hall and at their Geisel Library.
