1865ref. List2438Camp Low 1865. Original partially printed document 26cm x 77cm. Printed on both sides of the sheet completed in manuscript. Darkening at folds from old tape repairs; partial splits to folds and extremities; complete and quite Good. Docketed verso signed in ink by Lieutenant Morgan Owen. Lists twelve enlisted soldiers most with Spanish surnames two with French surnames. Fine. The formation of the California Native Cavalry in 1863 marked a significant chapter in the state's history. Comprising primarily Mexican-American individuals colloquially referred to as "native" Californians the California Native Cavalry unit was formed 1863. Initially commanded by Maj. Andreas Pico a distinguished hero from the Mexican-American War and later under Salvador Vallejo the regiment drew its ranks from diverse backgrounds. Recruitment efforts began with vaqueros from southern California expanding to include individuals from San José and San Francisco. The unit boasted a varied composition encompassing not only Mexican-Americans but also Chilenos California and Yaqui Indians and even French legionnaires. Company "B" a contingent largely recruited from the northern part of the state is reflected in the existing muster roll. The company assembled at Camp Low near San Juan Bautista in 1865 making a striking entrance into the town. Described as "gay and gallant Spanish lancaroes" the cavalrymen presented a formidable sight with lances in hand and flags flying leaving a lasting impression on the townspeople who had never before encountered soldiers."The gay and gallant Spanish lancaroes sic came dashing through the town with the lances in their hand a flag flying from each of them. I assure you that they presented a war like appearance the people here had never seen a soldier in their lives – Yes Sir!." letter Maj. Michael O'Brien to Gov. Frederick Low January 1865; quoted in Prezelski "Lives of the Californio Lancers: the First Battalion of Native California Cavalry" in Journal of Arizona History v.40 no.1 Spring 1999. Under the command of Capt. Porfirio Jimeno Company B swiftly engaged in a critical mission: dismantling the notorious Mason-Henry Gang that had terrorized the San Juan region in the preceding months. Despite successfully wounding John Mason in early April 1865 the gang persisted for another month until Mason met his demise at the hands of a miner he sought to kidnap. However Company B faced challenges including low morale and a high rate of desertions with over 40 men leaving the company in 1865 alone. Transferred to Tubac Arizona Territory to confront the Apaches the company encountered further desertions along the way. The muster roll listing only twelve soldiers alongside Capt. Porfirio Jimeno reflects this tumultuous period. Overall the muster roll provides scarce documentation of the role of Mexican-Americans in the Civil War with few other examples in the trade or institutionally. unknown

1910ref. 0287Paris et Nancy, Berger-Levrault & Cie, 1910. Deuxième édition, revue et augmentée "des Écoles de brigade, de division et d'escadre". Grand in-8, 24 x 16,5 cm pour 222 pages. Relié demi-chagrin charbon, dos à faux-nerfs, nom d'auteur, titre et fleurons dorés, plats marbrés, gardes à motifs. Dédicace à la plume d'un ancien propriétaire sur la page de garde blanche et nom du même propriétaire écrit plusieurs fois aux premières pages. À mi-chemin entre prolongement du XIXe siècle et un conflit de 1914 qui chamboulera toutes les idées sur la guerre, ce livre explique l'apprentissage du métier de soldat à cheval tel que conçu à l'époque. Il montre comment intégrer les mouvements en peloton, en "fourrageurs", les charges, les changements de direction, le combat à pied, etc. à chaque soldat jusqu'à ce qu'il devienne une seconde nature. "Eh bien ! Je l'ai faite, mon école de peloton ; et j'ai suivi ma progression, non pas sans quelques difficultés, car mon chef d'escadrons a fait ce qu'il a pu pour me contrarier ; mais mon capitaine commandant m'avait donné carte blanche, et quand le commandant a voulu soulever un conflit, le colonel lui a donné tort. Pendant trois jours ma troupe a marché en silence derrière le guide ; elle le suivait partout avec tant de promptitude que je ne pouvais plus, malgré les brusques changements de direction que je lui ordonnais, mettre du désordre dans mes cavaliers."
