Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. xlv, [3], 760 pages. Volume II ONLY. Illustrations, Maps. Footnotes, Appendices. Principal Manuscript Sources. Short-Title Index. Index. Douglas Southall Freeman (May 16, 1886 - June 13, 1953) was an American historian, biographer, newspaper editor, radio commentator, and author. He is best known for his multi-volume biographies of Robert E. Lee and George Washington, for both of which he was awarded Pulitzer Prizes. In 1911, when Freeman was 25 years old, he came into possession of a cache of long-lost wartime communications between Robert E. Lee and Confederate president Jefferson Davis. Freeman spent four years working on the documents, and in 1915, he published Lee's Dispatches. The book was received enthusiastically by Civil War historians, and it became an important primary source for Civil War scholars. Following the critical success of R. E. Lee: A Biography, Freeman expanded his study of the Confederacy with the three-volume Lee's Lieutenants: A Study in Command, published in 1942, 1943, and 1944. It presents a unique combination of military strategy, biography, and Civil War history, and it shows how armies actually work. Published during World War II, it had a great influence on American military leaders and strategists. After the conclusion of the war, Freeman was asked to join an official tour of American forces in Europe and Japan. Lee's Lieutenants: A Study in Command established Freeman as the preeminent military historian in the country, and led to close friendships with United States generals George C. Marshall and Dwight D. Eisenhower. An unquestioned masterpiece of the historian's art, and a towering landmark in the literature of the American Civil War. In volume two, "Cedar Mountain to Chancellorsville," Douglas Southall Freeman recounts the succession of battles that are among the most celebrated in the history of American warfare. The Confederacy won resounding victories in 1862-63, but they were seldom won easily or at light cost. Death was always on the heels of fame, but the men who survived -- among them Jackson, Longstreet, and Ewell -- would continue to develop as commanders and as men. In these chapters, a new type of officer arises. He is still learning, still rounding to the full stature of a leader, and combat is still his glory. At second Manassas he is John Hood; at South Mountain he is Robert Rodes; at Sharpsburg he is John Cook, and at Chancellorsville there is a goodly fellowship: Rodes and Ramseur and Pender and Wilcox. But it is Jackson who is the central figure in this volume. The history of the Confederate Army from Cedar Mountain to Sharpsburg and back again to the Rappahannock is, in its finest lines, his military biography. By the spring of 1863, "Old Jack" personifies the mobility, the resolution, and the offensive daring of the Army, and his death is a defeat that cancels all the gains at Chancellorsville.

The Library of Imperial History et al. 1973-6. In 34 Volumes bound in full vellum gilt with Churchill's coat of arms in gilt to upper board of each volume. All page edges gilt. Presented in a custom-made wooden bookshelf. The Library of Imperial History went bankrupt before the projected run of 3,000 sets could be completed, so "the print run never exceeded 2,000 copies. " (Cohen). "The specifications were titanic: five million words in 19,000 pages, weighing 19 lbs, taking up 4.5 ft of shelf space. To achieve publication, 11 publishing houses in Great Britain, the United States and Canada released their individual copyrights in exchange for the promise that no other complete edition of Churchill works would be published until the expiration of international copyright in 2019" (Richard M. Langworth). This set lacks the four later published volumes of essays but is complete in itself. Every volume has the original maps, plans, photographs and illustrations, some are folding. As a natural material vellum has some natutral variation in tones, volume I has patches of natural browning to lower board, vols. II, VII, XIV have browning to boards, vols. IX, XI, XII, XX, XIX, XXVI, XXXIV has some foxing to boards. Vol. XXXIII has some spotting also. Vols. VIII, XVI, XXIII have some discolouration to boards. All the volumes are in their slipcases which are racing green morocco and also have the Churchill coat of arms to upper panel. They do show a few signs of shelfwear, some have spotting or a couple of small patches of rubbing. . The books are all in fine condition. Please enquire for more details and postal options.…
