Aggiungi al carrelloPamphlet. Condizione: Good. First Edition. Removed, no wrapper, 9 x 5 1/2 inches, 14 pp. 25th Congress, 2nd Session; House of Representatives, War Dept., Doc. No. 327. A vivid snapshot of activity during the 2nd Seminole War while Major General Thomas S. Jesup was in command of the troops, before General Zachary Taylor replaced…him in May of 1838. The letters are from the latter part of 1827 and January, 1838. It includes the verbatim account of a talk between Brigadier General Hernandez and the Indian chiefs Osinyohola (or Powell) and Coahajo, in October of 1837.This report consists of printed letters by Major General Thomas S. Jesup and others, on the subject at hand.An example from Maj. Gen. Jesup: "I have caused Powell, Wild-Cat, Coe-Hajo, John Cawaya, the two Hickses, Tustenuck-kee, Chitto-Yahola, with upwards of seventy Micasukey and Seminole warriors to be seized, and I have them now confined in the fort at this place. Powell, Wild-Cat, and John Cawaya, were the cause of the Seminoles failing to fulfil their treaty. We have here about one hundred and thirteen Indian prisoners, and among them nearly all the war spirits of the nation. "I shall detach General Hernandez to-morrow, with three or four hundred mounted men, dragoons and volunteers, to Tomoka, and perhaps to Volusia, to attack or capture numerous small parties of Indians and negroes said to be east of the St. John's, preparing coontee, (a species of the arrowroot.) And I shall send, early the next morning, a steamboat with a detachment of the artillery and a company of the 2d infantry to Volusia, for a party of negroes, said to be there or at Spring Garden. "My prisoners, since I commenced operations in December last, amount to about five hundred, black and red; and about thirty Indians and negroes have been killed, by which more than two hundred rifles have been silenced. And we have guides for every part of the country. I may be deceived, but I think the prospect of closing the war is now flattering.".

Aggiungi al carrelloOne coloured lithograph, sized 11.25 x 8.5 in. extracted from the original Explorations and Surveys volumes, a fine crisp copy. First edition of this view of Fort Vancouver, Washington Territory while future General Ulysses Grant was stationed there as a quartermaster Captain. The original survey was one of the most important an…d massive compilations of exploration reports and scientific data ever published about the Trans-Mississippi West. Published by the Federal Government at the urging of Secretary of War Jefferson Davis, and the result of numerous reconnaissance surveys of exploring four major routes surveyed for the Pacific Railroad -- these reports represent the first attempt at a comprehensive, systematic geographical exploration of the Western regions of America, and made possible the first reasonably accurate topographical maps of the West. Vols I & XII (parts 1 & 2) are still considered some of the best early sources of information on the Pacific Northwest, the Puget Sound, and the tribes of Washington Territory. Of the eleven official expedition artists, the most prominent is the renowned John M. Stanley (1814-1872) most widely known for his portraits of Native Americans and their way of life. Warren's Map of the Territory of the United States from the Mississippi to the Pacific Ocean (Vol. XI) was considered by Howe as the best cartographical work on the West up to its time, and was used for 25 years following as the definitive reference.
