Footnotes. Charts. Tables. Illustrations. XLV Appendices. Guide to Footnotes. Chronology. Glossary. Index. Some endpaper discolora…tion. This is one volume of an eight volume report. Engineer Intelligence is a historical coverage of intelligence activities of the Engineers in the Theater during World War II. It has been divided chronologically rather than by campaigns, because the intelligence work did not begin and end in definite phases concurrently with the actual combat which it was supporting. While one campaign was being fought in a particular place, map production and compilation of Engineer intelligence reports were be prepared for another combat action which might not be scheduled for months to combat, and would would be located hundreds of miles from the preset scene of action. The Engineer intelligence mission in the Theater was accomplished, in general, through the execution of two functions: mapping, and research and reports. This volume treats these two functions separately within the time period devoted to each chapter. The contents address: Scope of Engineer Intelligence in the Southwest Pacific, Engineer Intelligence in the Philippine Defense, 1941-42, Engineer Intelligence Preparations in 1942, Engineer Intelligence in a Period of Progress, 1943, Engineer Intelligence Activities in 1944, and Engineer Intelligence in the Final year of Hostilities.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. "What the Hell is this wire? Certainly it was never issued" (Volume VII, p. 12), blurts a penned question of an entry about a table denoting issuance of materiel. This is an extraordinary mark of provenance and added association value. This lot is comprised of a set of seven of th…e eight volumes providing a compendium of U.S. Naval and U.S. Army Corps of Engineer activities in the Pacific Theater during World War Two. The author, Hugh John "Pat" Casey (7 June 1898 ? 30 August 1981) was a Major General in the United States Army. He graduated in 1918 from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, served in "Germany during the Occupation of the Rhineland," later earned a Ph.D. in Engineering in Berlin at the Technische Hochschule, and much, much later helped to design and construct many engineering projects during the Works Project Administration, in the Philippines in 1937, and the Pentagon! From the library of and SIGNED several times by Colonel Harry A. Skerry, retired, U.S. Army, who served with valor in World War I and then again in World War II. The web-site devoted to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers personnel and projects notes also that he was a survivor of the Bataan Death March, earned a Distinguished Service Cross for such, and also survived as a Prisoner of War under the Japanese. He served in the United States Army at the rank of Colonel (Corps of Engineers) in the 14th Engineer Regiment (PS), Philippine Division, to 1942. He has signed in several places and also pen-underlined sentences and paragraphs throughout and added penciled marginal notations here and there. The set is comprised of seven sturdy, attractive, tightly bound in quarto hardcover format volumes measuring 11 3/4" tall x 8 1/2" wide. Gilt-stamped illustration to front cover and gilt-lettering to spines. Clean but for the aforementioned penciled and penned markings throughout several volumes, all notable and adding extraordinary provenance and association value. Minimal rubbing to extremities, bound in a burgundy buckram cloth over boards format, gilt lettering to spines. The first volume, Volume I (1947), "Engineers in Theater Operations," summarizes U.S. Army Corps of Engineers activities during the World War Two operations in the Southwest Pacific. Plentiful maps (57), a chart, diagrams and many score illustrations. Each volume, like this one, has full indexes. Frontis matter, 375 pp. Volume II (1953), "Organizations, Troops and Training," also signed and inscribed by Harry A. Skeery in pencil, with fine black-and-white photograph at frontis of the Corps in Manila, The Philippine Islands, 1945, xviii, 1-330 pp. and with several score illustrations, four maps, 37 charts, and 38 tables. Laid in also is the original receipt of purchase by Skerry and noting that Volume II was the sixth release in the series and that by that time, volumes I, III, VI, VII and VIII had been released. Volume III (1948): Engineer Intelligence, and with a fine black-and-white photograph at frontis in New Guinea in 1942, xvii, 1-467 pp. and with full index and with 57 maps, 13 charts, 21 tables, and several score fine illustrations in black-and-white, some in color. Many of the maps are fold-out and printed on heavy card-stock. This volume is given over to covering the history of W.W.I.I. engineers but is rendered in chronological order rather than by order of campaign because the intelligence work that provided the groundwork for eventual engineering works wasn't always forthcoming. Volume IV: "Amphibian Engineer Operations" (1959), is a Presentation Copy SIGNED again by Harry A. Skerry at first free endpaper, dated and located to September 15, 1960, Portland, Oregon, but also pasted in is a Presentation Letter from the author, Hugh J. Casey in typescript, full-page, detailing the publication history of the other volumes in the set of eight volumes, which Casey notes had already been sold and sent to him, and signed by him, too, as "Pat," and with an extraordinary penned note: ". Signed by Other.
