Powell served as second director of the U.S. Geological Survey 1881-1894 and proposed policies that were prescient for his accurate evaluation of conditions. He became the first director of the Bureau of Ethnology at the Smithsonian Institution while serving as director of the U.S. Geological Survey where he supported linguistic and sociological research and publications. During the Civil War he enlisted in the Union Army as a cartographer topographer and military engineer.

Bitter Victory; The Death of HMAS Sydney

2002réf. 79556Annapolis Maryland: Naval Institute Press 2002. Reprint Edition with Amendments and Additions. Trade paperback. Very good. ix 1 437 3 pages. Slightly cocked. Includes Illustrations. Acknowledgments Glossary Introduction Appendixes Notes Bibliography and Index. On November 11 1941 HMAS Sydney sailed from Fremantle on a routine escort mission. The cruiser should have returned on the afternoon of 20 November but failed to arrive. The disappearance of Sydney is one of the greatest maritime mysteries in Australian history. Many attempts have been made to unravel the sequence of events and answer the questions raised by this extraordinary episode. But no account has so far managed to deal convincingly with the problems and puzzles. Why did Sydney sink Why was it lost without a trace And why were there no survivors Clue by clue step by step the author provides the most persuasive explanation proposed yet for the tragedy of HMAS Sydney. Wesley Olson's Bitter Victory: the death of HMAS Sydney published in 2000 was a r-examination of the evidence including comparisons with similar naval engagements and sinkings which supported the accepted view of the battle. The Author Mr. Olson has done a superb job of researching the loss of HMAS Sydney. As the book was written before the discovery of both Sydney and Kormoran it was more than a little interesting to see just how close many of the authors conclusions were - if not 100% accurate at least close enough - to the evidence provided by photographs of the wreck site. The battle between the Australian light cruiser HMAS Sydney and the German auxiliary cruiser Kormoran was a single-ship action that occurred on 19 November 1941 off the coast of Western Australia. Sydney with Captain Joseph Burnett commanding and Kormoran under Fregattenkapitän Theodor Detmers encountered each other approximately 106 nautical miles 196 km; 122 mi off Dirk Hartog Island. Both ships were destroyed in the half-hour engagement. From 24 November after Sydney failed to return to port air and sea searches were conducted. Boats and rafts carrying survivors from Kormoran were recovered at sea while others made landfall north of Carnarvon: 318 of the 399 personnel on Kormoran survived. While debris from Sydney was found there were no survivors from the 645-strong complement. It was the largest loss of life in the history of the Royal Australian Navy the largest Allied warship lost with all hands during World War II and a major blow to Australian wartime morale. Australian authorities learned of Sydney's fate from the surviving Kormoran personnel who were held in prisoner of war camps until the end of the war. The exact location of the two wrecks remained unverified until 2008. Controversy has often surrounded the battle especially in the years before the two wrecks were located in 2008. How and why a purpose-built warship like Sydney was defeated by a modified merchant vessel like Kormoran was the subject of speculation with numerous books on the subject as well as two official reports by government inquiries published in 1999 and 2009 respectively. According to German accounts-which were assessed as truthful and generally accurate by Australian interrogators during the war as well as most subsequent analyses-Sydney approached so close to Kormoran that the Australian cruiser lost the advantages of heavier armor and superior gun range. Nevertheless several post-war publications have alleged that Sydney's loss had been the subject of an extensive cover-up that the Germans had not followed the laws of war that Australian survivors were massacred following the battle or that the Empire of Japan had been secretly involved in the action before officially declaring war in December. No evidence has been found to support any of these theories. Naval Institute Press paperback

The Road to Normalcy; The Presidential Campaign and Election of 1920

1965réf. 76973Baltimore MD: The Johns Hopkins Press 1965. Second Printing stated. Hardcover. Very good/Good. 206 ix 1 pages. Notes. Index. Inscribed by the author on the title page. Wesley Bagby had been a mainstay of West Virginia University's Department of History for 45 years. Before joining the WVU faculty as an assistant professor in 1956 he taught at Pfeiffer Junior College Wake Forest University the University of Tennessee and the University of Maryland. Bagby established a reputation for outstanding scholarship when he published two significant articles and a book The Road to Normalcy: The Presidential Campaign and Election of 1920 which stamped him as a leading authority on the election of 1920. While continuing to focus much of his research on 20th century U.S. history Bagby also turned increasing attention to U.S. foreign relations. This produced two major works: The Eagle-Dragon Alliance: Americas Relations with China in World War II published in 1992 and Americas International Relations Since World War I. This is one of The Johns Hopkins University Studies in Historical and Political Science No. 1 for 1962. The election of 1920 struck a benchmark into U.S. political history. It ended America's flirtation with the League of Nations and spiked the Progressive movement. It left behind the Great War the liberal tradition and the dreams of Woodrow Wilson. It ushered in a period of government-by-businessmen complacency scandal and the stock market crash. Harding coined the term "return to normalcy" which for a time seemed to fit.

Marine Rifleman: Forty-Three Years in the Corps

2002réf. 68363Washington DC: Brassey's Inc 2002. Reprint. Third printing stated. Hardcover. Very good in very good dust jacket. Signed by author. Inscribed onhalf-title. Glued binding. Paper over boards. xv 1 395 5 p. Illustrations. Glossary. Notes. Maps. Index. Intrigued by the mystique and challenge of the Marine Corps eighteen-year-old Wesley Fox enlisted in the summer of 1950 shortly after the outbreak of the Korean War. He saw action with the First Marine Division in Korea and was wounded in 1951. After Korea Fox advanced steadily in the enlisted ranks reaching the rank of first sergeant and early in the Vietnam War he received an appointment as second lieutenant. While serving as a rifle company commander with the Third Marine Division in 1969 he was twice wounded in a vicious battle during Operation Dewey Canyon. Early in this battle every member of the company 's command staff was either wounded or killed. In an all-or-nothing effort led by First Lieutenant Fox his company repulsed the attack of a much larger enemy force and then counterattacked with devastating results. For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty Fox received the Medal of Honor which President Richard Nixon presented to him at the White House. Despite the personal sacrifice and frequent danger Fox resolutely embraced the ethos of the Marine Corps risking his life on numerous occasions and emerging as a leader in one of the most respected and feared fighting organizations in the world. Readers interested in U.S. military history from the second half of the twentieth century in the Marine Corps and in inspiring tales of personal achievement will find plenty of each in Fox 's extraordinary memoir. From Wikipedia: "Wesley Lee Fox born September 30 1931 is a retired Colonel in the United States Marine Corps with 43 years of service. Fox received the Medal of Honor for his actions during the Vietnam War. He is considered to be one of the legendary war heroes within the Marine Corps. Fox was born to John Wesley and Desola Lee nee Crouch Fox in Herndon Virginia the oldest of ten siblings. He attended Warren County High School in Front Royal Virginia until 1948. He enlisted in the Marine Corps shortly before his 19th birthday on August 4 1950 during the Korean War. He completed recruit training at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island South Carolina. Serving as a rifleman with Company I 3rd Battalion 5th Marines he was wounded in action in Korea on September 8 1951 and sent to the U.S. Navy Hospital in Bethesda Maryland. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with Combat "V". He recovered in 1952 and was sent back to Korea in 1954 as a Platoon Sergeant with Company G 3rd Battalion 5th Marines. When he returned home from Korea he was assigned to duty as both a drill instructor from 1955 to 1957 and a recruiter from 1957 to 1960. He was promoted to First Sergeant in May 1966. Shortly afterwards he was commissioned as a Marine Second Lieutenant. Fox served in the Vietnam War for 13 months as an adviser to the Vietnamese Marine Corps. In November 1968 he became company commander of Company A 1st Battalion 9th Marines until May 1969. During Operation Dewey Canyon in Quang Tri Province he was wounded twice on February 22 1969. He was wounded the first time in the shoulder when his company was attacked by a large enemy force. 1st Lieutenant then Fox then personally neutralized one enemy emplacement and directed his company to destroy others. After his company's executive officer was mortally wounded he continued to direct the company's actions ordering air strikes and coordinating the advance until the enemy retreated. Fox the only officer left in his company capable of resistance was wounded again in the final assault but refused medical attention while he reorganized his troops and prepared the wounded for evacuation. For his heroic actions that day he was presented the Medal of Honor by President Richard Nixon on March 2 1971. He retired from the Marine Corps as a full colonel in September 1993 at the mandatory age of 62. He held every enlisted rank except Sergeant Major and every officer rank except General.
