Napoleonic military manual used in Civil War

Item Details

Description

Heading:
Author: Marmont, Marshal Auguste de
Title: The Spirit of Military Institutions; or, Essential Principles of the Art of War
Place Published: Philadelphia
Publisher:J.B. Lippincott Company
Date Published: 1862
Description:

xxiv, 25-272 + 8 ad pp. Translated with illustrative notes by Henry CoppÃ©e. (8vo) 18.9x12 cm (7½x4¾"), original blindstamped cloth boards rebacked in modern calf, spine ruled and lettered in gilt, morocco lettering piece, raised bands. Revised and corrected edition.

Influential military treatise by one of Napoleon's marshals used by the Confederate Army as an official manual during the American Civil War. Two inscriptions to front free endpaper read: "Capt. P.B. Johnson A.Q.M. [Assistant Quartermaster] January 14, 1864" and "Presented by Heir December 1874". Captain Johnson was a well-known newspaper correspondent and Republican activist in the states of Washington and Oregon, becoming editor and (soon thereafter) sole owner of the Walla Walla Union, at some point working for the Portland Oregonian, and finally giving up his financial interest in the Walla Walla paper in 1890.

Condition

Light rubbing to original cloth boards; title page and front free endpaper repaired although title still has a small chip missing at top edge; very good.
