Description:
Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, (1999). Octavo, softbound (slick white stiff wrappers), xix, 333 pp. Fine. From lower cover: Lauded as a hero in his native land for his sensational but ultimately unsuccessful exploits during the 1848 German Revolution, Franz Sigel -- who immigrated to the United States in 1852 -- is among the most misunderstood figures of the American Civil War. He was appointed by Abraham Lincoln as a political general in the Union army, a move that galvanized northern support and led to a huge influx of German recruits who were eager to “fight mit Sigel.” But Sigel proved an inept and ineffectual leader and, unfortunately, is most often remembered for his disappointing failure at the Battle of New Market and his subsequent loss of command. In his insightful biography, Stephen D. Engle provides the first complete portrait of this enigmatic leader and German standard-bearer, showing Sigel to be a disciplined, self-sacrificing idealist who sparked more pride…

Along with prescription drugs, homeopathic nerve remedies, and laxatives, Sam totes a book of poetry and a dictionary, and before the day is out he prevails upon Ferdie to look up “procrastinate.” “Succulent” and…

Description:
Tampa, Florida: University of Tampa Press, (2006). First Edition, stated. Quarto, gold cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, 466 pp. Very Good in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: Ybor City stands today as a beacon of history, culture, and legend. In a state primarily known for tourism and citrus, it is a sparkling anomaly: a factory town built by immigrants with an architecture, culture, cuisine, and industry pulsing with distinctive Latin flavor found nowhere else in the world. Here is the largest collection of historic cigar factory buildings and social clubs in the world -- most of them built of warm, red brick. And like many factory towns in the late twentieth century, it fell upon desperately hard times and was nearly lost. The story of its founding and growth is a history of the Spanish, Cuban, Italian, German, and Romanian immigrants who were the workers and the visionaries behind its success. The story of its rebirth as a National Landmark town is something of a modern miracle.…

London: Century, 1985). First Edition. Octavo, blue boards (hardcover), silver letters, 342 pp. Fine in a Near Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: ‘The fastest man in the sky... a solid gold hero... the stuff of legend.’ Chuck Yeager has been described as all these things and more. A double-ace fighter pilot in the Second World War, the first man to break the sound barrier, the most daring and courageous test pilot, whose exploits inspired The Right Stuff, and the most colourful character ever to rise to the rank of US brigadier general. Chuck Yeager’s story is truly the stuff that dreams are made of. Fascinated by planes ever since he can remember, Yeager went straight from school to the US Air Force where, despite frequent brushes with the authorities for his hell-raising exploits, he quickly earned a reputation as one of the most skilled and fearless pilots. Within months of the USA entering the war, Yeager had scored no fewer than eleven Messerschmitts in one flight, and had a…

Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1911. First Edition. Signed and inscribed by the Author. Octavo, black illustrated cloth, tissue-protected frontis., 171 pp + ads. Very Good. Photographs gladly provided upon request. “Ten days after my graduation from Harvard I took my place as an unskilled workman in one of the largest of the great soft-coal mines that lie in the Middle West. It was with no thought of writing my experiences that I chose my occupation, but with the intention of learning by actual work the “operating end” of the great industry, in the hope that such practical knowledge as I should acquire would fit me to follow the business successfully. That this mine was operated in direct opposition to the local organization of union labor and had won considerable notoriety by successfully mining coal in spite of the most active hostility, gave an added interest to the work. The physical conditions of the mine were the most perfect that modern engineering has devised: the…
