Page 11 IMPORTANT SERIES OF LETTERS FROM UNION LIEUTENANT IN THE CIVIL WAR 45. (Civil War) Andrews, John. Twenty Autograph Letters Signed by Lt. John Andrews, 179th New York Volunteer Infantry, to various family members. From 2 to 8 pp. each, in ink, various sizes. All but 6 with their original envelopes, but the stamps have been cut out. Various places: Oct. 6, 1864 to May 8, 1865 Exceptional collection of original letters from the final year of the Civil War, as Union forces were closing in on Robert E. Lee in northern . They are well written, both legible and highly readable, presenting a vivid picture of the action and events during this key period, and the effects on the populace, with mention of African Americans. The 179th New York Volunteer Infantry, 9th Army Corps, was organized at Elmira, New York, in the spring of 1864, and the letters are addressed to Andrews’ father and siblings in North Reading, Schuyler County, New York. During much of its existence, the 179th was involved in the long and bloody Richmond-Petersburg campaign, often referred to the Siege of Petersburg. Andrews began as a second lieutenant, and was promoted to first lieutenant. The first of the letters was sent from City Point, VA, and he notes that “There are very strong fortifications all around this point, and thousands of soldiers to guard it. Gen. Grant’s Head Quarters are but a few rods from where I am writing…” The following day: “The 179th is in the very extreme front. We are encamped on the battlefield of last Friday. The rebel fortifications are in plain sight, not over a half mile distance and every little while we can see men moving along their fortifications. Our position is a strong one….” On October 11: “I eat dirt and filth of all kinds and drink dirtier water than you can find in the Empire state, yet I am well. I can get along without everything else, but I long constantly for a drink of water such as I could get at home… I witnessed an execution last Friday. A deserter of the 2nd Maryland was shot in the presence of our whole division. He was a hardened wretch and met his fate with stoical indifference. He spent the day before his execution in playing cards and when he marched to his grave it was with a firm step. But it was a hard sight to see him sit cooly down on his coffin and look up at the squad of men who were to shoot him. And then the handkerchief was tied over his eyes, the men fired, he dropped back on his coffin, the blood streaming from his head and breast down over the sides of it…” October 31: “It was supposed we were going around to the right to reinforce Butler and make a heavy strike there, but before night the current of camp talk changed and it became a fixed fact that the blow was to be struck here at the left and the South Side Rail Road to become ours…

Lot 45

At three our brigade was on the march. It was quite dark and I could but faintly see the column as regiment after regiment fell into line. The Negro Division was on the extreme left. I could not see them distinctly but I could smell them…” and later, “There was a cleared field and at the opposite side of it I found the regiment holding some breastwork Page 12 just vacated by the rebels. They had not been under fire at all. Still ahead of them was the Negro Division which was skirmishing with the enemy, and many were the stories of the Darkies bravery. It was said they charged on some breastworks and many were bayoneted as they came upon them, but with a yell they pressed right on and drove the rebs from them….” On January 21, 1865: “Sat night one man from N.H. Regt. attempted to desert and was shot dead. His body was left on the ground the next day. Numerous executions have nearly stopped Northern desertions, but Rebel desertions are numerous. A man from his reg’t. was hung on Saturday shortly after Andrews arrived. He was pardoned by Grant but the pardon arrived 2 hours after the execution. His innocence was proved, but he lies at the foot of the scaffold a murdered man and his regiment is unjustly disgraced because of it...” A truly fascinating and historically significant series of letters. Moderate wear, generally very good or better. (3000/5000)

California, etc.: c.1900-1946 Significant archive of the Baba family, who seem to have settled in Oakland in the early 1900s, with the first album containing photographs from c.1900 to the mid 1920’s; most of the other albums are from the 1930’s and 1940’s, with many family gatherings, trips to Yosemite, babies, children, etc. There are some captions in Japanese, some in English. In one of the later albums are photographs of family members at a detention, also some of Japanese-American soldiers in uniform. The two account ledgers contain listings of the members of the Japanese American Society of Oakland, the dues paid, accounts, etc. The two diaries are in English, kept by George Shiro Baba, 1940 and 1941. The second one records Dec. 7: “Up at 10 and ate. Then came the news dispatch hat Japan had attacked Hawaii & P.I. so war began bet Japan & U.S.” And the next day “Pres Roosevelt ask Congress to declare war on Japan,” and on the 9th “Paper’s say that Japan air planes flew over Bay area last night…” The letters from Frank Baba are also quite revealing, most written to his young wife, many while he was stationed in Japan, Among the passages: “So many niseis are trying to get the citizenship back but some of them face pretty tough barriers. I net Shirow Uyeno’s brother and he is one of the kibei who made noises in the camp. But today he is sorry he ever was sent back to Japan. Repatriates are treated rather cooly in their homeland be cause of food and housing shortages. You see many sad cases in Japan. Just a bar of candy means so much to the adult who has children. In the black market one of those Baby Ruth or Hershey bar cost near 20 yen…” An important archive showing the acclimation of a Japanese American family into American culture, and the travails facing them during the second world war.

Four major routes were surveyed, from a northern route terminating at the mouth of the Columbia River to a southern route running through Texas to San Diego. Superbly illustrated with color lithographs of the countryside and native peoples of the regions explored, and with numerous maps detailing areas never before surveyed.

Wagner-Camp notes, “Despite their flaws, these volumes contain a monumental collection of scientific information, geographical, zoological, botanical, geological, of the still mysterious American West. Upon first examination, the volumes seem forbiddingly disorganized... however these faults are amply compensated by the richness of the material within.” Howes P3; Wagner-Camp 262-267.

Francis & Co., 1849 Early and important observations of California during the Gold Rush and the period preceding it. The Zamorano 80 notes that “Lieutenant Revere was a graduate of Annapolis and a grandson of Paul Revere. His Tour of Duty is one of the outstanding authorities on the period of the Conquest, and his descriptions of California and the gold regions are of the best. The book contains valuable chapters on land law and land titles, as well as the complete report of Col. Mason on the gold fields.” Streeter says that “this is one of the most important books on the Gold Rush and figures on most selected lists.” Cowan p.530; Graff 3474; Howes R222; Kurutz 529a; Sabin 70182; Streeter 2592; Wheat Gold Rush 165; Zamorano Eighty 63.

Woods, a clergyman, began this lively volume with a preface (dated July 1, 1851) stating that he intended to make this book a miner’s manual based on his sixteen months working in the mines “chiefly upon the American and Tuolumne River and their tributaries.” He also advised that mining was for young men, and whose who are doing “well enough” or have families should stay home. Woods began his adventure on February 1, 1849, when he embarked at the foot of Arch Street, Philadelphia, aboard the barque Thomas Walters. On February 21, the ship arrived at Tampico, Mexico. Wood crossed the continent to San Blas, where he picked up the schooner San Blasina and after great difficulty, arrived in San Francisco on June 25. He immediately headed for Sacramento and the mines, where he began life as an Argonaut. The clergyman became something of an expert on mining company rules and regulations. In one of the concluding chapters, he gives a report on fourteen other mining companies. Wood served as the secretary and treasurer of Hart’s Bar Mining and Draining Company. In addition to his own activities, the author devoted much of his text to mining in general and concluded with a chapter on hints to miners. On November 9, 1851, Wood left the mines and headed home via the Isthmus of Panama.

Large folding lithographed map from Emory’s Notes of a Military Reconnoissance from Fort Leavenworth, in Missouri to San Diego, in California. 75.5x162 cm. (30x64”), plus California coast and Pacific extending beyond border. Washington: [1848] Important map which accompanied Emory’s superb study of the lands newly wrested from the Mexican government. As Wagner-Camp notes, “his report was a major contribution to the geographical knowledge of North America. His map, in which he limited himself to recording only the data which he and his assistants had actually observed, was the first accurate depiction of that vast area, and is still regarded as one of the landmarks of American cartography. The report includes sections on the plants and animals, as well as on the geology and the prehistoric town sites and other archeological remains. Emory’s descriptions of the various Indian tribes that he encountered were steps toward the newly-forming discipline -Anthropology- concerned with primitive man.” This large map is called by Wheat “a document of towering significance in the cartographic history of the West,” and “epoch-making.” See Wheat Transmississippi 544; Cowan p.195; Graff 1249; Howes E145; Wagner-Camp 148; Zamorano Eighty 33.
