1875 1st ed Jules Verne Mysterious Island Wrecked Shipwrecks 20000 Leagues

"It is a great misfortune to be alone, my friends; and it must be believed that solitude can quickly destroy reason."

― Jules Verne, The Mysterious Island

Jules Verne's adventure novels are some of the most popular and famous works of literature of all time. "Mysterious Island", originally published in 1874, is an adventure novel that was significantly influenced by 'Robinson Crusoe' and other 'shipwreck' adventures. This novel follows the story and adventures of American Civil War prisoners of war, who escaped on a balloon to an uncharted island in the South Pacific. This book is iconic as being a melding of another Verne novel, '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'.

In 1875, the first American edition appeared by Scribner's after the original plates of Sampson Low. Sampson Low published this work in three volumes, the first of which was entitled 'Dropped from the Clouds' or 'Wrecked in the Air'. This American edition of 'Wrecked' is considered the first authorized edition.

1904 Confederate Civil War Reminiscences General John B Gordon Union Memorial

"Gordon had a way of putting things to the men that was irresistible, and he showed the men, at all times, that he shrank from nothing in battle on account of himself." –Lt. Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson

General Robert E. Lee considered his compatriot, John Brown Gordon to be one of his most reliable and trustworthy generals during the US Civil War. Himself a general in the Confederate States Army, Gordon would endure not one, but two severe illnesses alongside eight significant wounds on the battlefield.

A rare "memorial edition" of Gen. John B. Gordon's famous autobiography, 'Reminiscences of the Civil War.' Held in high regard by many for its highly entertaining contents, this biographical work offers fascinating insight from a prominent Confederate military leader during one of the darkest times in US history.
