It is largely devoted to the highlights of his military service during the French and Indian War, but not entirely. There was his adventure into and exploits associated with the Cuban campaign and Chief Pontiac's War. By avocation Israel Putnam was a farmer in Pomfret, Connecticut. Upon provocation he was a fighter. This book shares some of those experiences along the wilderness road to Fort Ticonderoga, at Albany, Havana and in the conquest to put out the fire spreading across the countryside." good+, maroon cloth (hardcover) EX-LIB WITH MINIMAL MARKINGS.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. This volume reprints three articles iin American Anthropologist (Vol. 5 #1, pp. 27-57, NS) on a symposium on aboriginal copper, The first by Clarence Moore is "Sheet-Copper from the Mounds is not Necessarily of European Origin" and has brief discussions by the other 3 scholars. Next are brief articles by Warren K. Morrehead and Charles Willoughby on Hopewell copper. This volume reprints the above articles, but inserted after McGuire's comment is a 16 page reply by Moore to McQuires remarks, who is, unlike Moore, convinced that copper in the mounds is of European origin. This is apparently a special printing of the symposium papers with Moore's added comments made after the original publication in American Anthropologist.

First published Ansel Adams photographs. Vol XI, No. 3, for 1922. This was published during a several-year time period when the Sierra Club did not stipulate the month of an issue, just the volume, the number, and the year; monthly designations for such an infrequent publication having always been somewhat unnecessary in any case. Original printed wrappers, 9 1/4" x 6 1/4", 113 pp. + numerous unpaginated photographic plates, features and ads - including two very precious shots which are the first published Ansel Adams photographs. Buff stapled wraps, Very Good or better, and internally fine, of course. Circuit binding (yapp binding) was used, in which cover edges were intentionally extended out beyond page edges, but over time the extended part becomes pressed inward somewhat (see third scan for the unusual degree of this is this issue). A handsome copy. See scans. Binding sturdy, contents fine. See scan of contents page for the lineup of impassioned club writers and their always engaging and adventurous topics. In addition to the two early and memorable Ansel Adams shots mentioned above, this issue is chock full of photographic plates by the club's best photographers, as well as others, including Ansel E. Adams, Marion Randall Parsons, Ray J. Baker, C.S. Carlsmith, Walter L. Huber, J.N. LeConte, E.A. Hornuth, C.S. Tappaan, Ansel F. Hall, W.B. Putnam, Chester Versteeg, George J. Young, Harold C.
