Description:
1882 King Louis XII of France Anne of Brittany Color Illustrated French BINDING

Paul Lacroix was a 19th-century French author whose books covered a broad set of topics, including some controversial. Lacroix wrote about ballets, costumes, romance, masquerades, heraldry, religion in the military, and the history of prostitution. One of his best books was "Louis XII et Anne de Bretagne", a history of early 16th-century France and the reuniting of Brittany and France.
While the contents of this and other Lacroix works are fascinating, it is the exquisite binding and color illustrations that make this book so desirable. It contains more than 200 illustrations in addition to the 14 chromolithograph engravings!

1867 CIVIL WAR History Abbott Illustrated Slavery Abe Lincoln Battle Maps RARE

John S. C. Abbott' writing style "did much to popularize the reading of history."
– Dictionary of American Biography

"History of the Civil War in America" is an extremely useful account of the Civil War and was published in a time wherein it would have been read as news rather than history. Though well researched, the author makes use of colorful narrative style giving these more the feel of a popular account than a sober and authoritative text. Features events leading to the cause of the conflict through Lincoln's assassination in April of 1865 and with a final chapter on the results of the conflict as of the date of publication.

Filled with incredible illustrations of maps, portraits, and scenes.

The author's non-linear poem about the billeting of soldiers in civilian homes in wartime. Copy 89 of a limited edition of 250. Folded into the form of a letter, the work was letterpress printed in wraps of handmade "combat paper" made from military uniforms. The author says: "Some time ago-maybe a year, maybe two? I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows…) that led to me writing the poem "Quartering." Which was informed by them, of course, and by all the rooms I'm in, and by imagining what is really required of all the caregivers I love. It's a thought experiment: if we tore down the barracks at military hospitals and offered incentives for Americans in the surrounding neighborhoods to quarter injured service members, what would the honest instructions… Read More
