To which are added letters written during a journey from Calais to Geneva, and St Bernard, in the year 1814. With an appendix containing a few original letters and anecdotes of the late Madame Elizabeth de France. Published to assist in providing free seats for the poor of Swansea by enlarging the parish church.

Bath: Richard Cruttwell, 1815. ii and 159 pages. Frontispiece portrait of Villettes. Contemporary marbled boards skillfully rebacked in quarter calf.

Bound with a 40 page Postscript to the Letters Written in France which was also published by Cruttwell in 1815.

The first 20 pages are a bare record of Villettes' services. There are a few anecdotes about him in the letters which were written by Bowdler, who was executor to Villettes' estate, while he was on his way to visit Villettes' sister in Switzerland. The 26 page appendix has letters written from The Temple by Princess Elizabeth, youngest sister of Louis XVI, in the months before she was guillotined. (For other books about the Napoleonic Wars please search my stock using the codeword napoleonic.)

None have failed bindings. The earlier volumes show more general wear to the boards than later volumes. I have prepared a more complete condition report on each volume so feel free to inquire.

Description:
Based on first-person accounts as well as military records, this book tells the story of those members of the Navajo Nation who served a unique role in the United States military during the Second World War.
The Navajo Code Talkers saved potentially, thousands of lives with their unique talent and background, selflessly serving a nation which has not always served them well.
This book contains 8 autographs of Navajo Code Talkers. The six autographs on the title page are: Jack Jones, Alfred Newman, Alfred Peaches, Robert Walley, Albert Smith, and Bill Toledo., The seventh autograph beneath the introduction is that of Kee Etsicitty, and the eighth autograph on page 103 is also that of Private Etsicitty beneath his photo.
With these eight autographs, this book is a one-of-a-kind memory of a group of men who made a unique contribution toward ending the Second World War.

Trumansburg, NY: Out of Step Press. Fine with no dust jacket. 2016. Numbered Edition; First Printing. Pamphlet. The author's non-linear poem about the billeting of soldiers in civilian homes in wartime. Copy 89 of a limited edition of 250.
