Nicolas Chalon du Blé, marquis d'Uxelles and Cormatin (24 January 1652-10 April 1730) was a French general and Foreign Minister. He was also created a knight and Marshal of France by Louis XIV, and was a diplomat for Louis XIV and Philippe II, Duke of Orléans.

[Berlin]: Vereinigung Berliner Architekten, 1905. First edition. Hardcover. g- to vg. Folio (13 1/2 x 10 1/4"). 58, [2]pp (Text and in-text illustrations), [56] leaves (Plates). Original blue cloth, with gold lettering to front cover. Decorative endpapers. Laid in, an original and unsigned watercolor on transparent paper, and the third issue of the Technische Hochschule Charlottenburg, dated February 27, 1920. Title page decorated by Adolf Hartung. This splendid photo-illustrated architectural monograph was published by the Union of Berlin Architects (Vereinigung Berliner Architekten) to commemorate the 25th anniversary of their founding. The founding members included distinguished historians as well as Martin Gropius, a celebrated architect and the uncle of Walter Gropius. By 1904, the association had over two hundred members. As seen in this book, the Union was an active participant in the architectural life of Berlin and curious about developments elsewhere. "Vereinigung Berliner Architekten MDCCCLXXIX-MDCCCCIV" features striking full-page b/w illustrated and photographic plates showing some of the best architectural examples produced between 1879 and 1904, such as: - The Berlin Dom (Cathedral), constructed from 1893 to 1905 by Julius Carl Raschdorff. - An architectural drawing of the Metz railway station, under construction at the time of the publication. The impressive Gothic-style station was built between 1905 and 1908 by German architect Jürgen Kröger assisted by the architects Jürgensen and Bachmann. - The Kaiserbrücke, a railway bridge on the Mainz rail bypass across the Rhine at the north end of Mainz. The bridge was built between 1901 and 1904 by Franz Heinrich Schwechten, one of the most famous architects of his time who contributed to the development of historicist architecture. The Kaiserbrücke was destroyed in 1945 by retreating German troops. - The New Town Hall (Leipzig), built between 1899 and 1905 by Hugo Licht. - The Lessing-Theater (Berlin), built between 1897 and 1898 by Hermann von der Hude and Julius Hennicke. The theater was destroyed during an allied air raid in April 1945. - The Bismarcksäule (Cologne), a prominent memorial statue dedicated to Prince and Chancellor Otto von Bismarck. The statue was built by A. Hartmann. - The Bismarck-Denkmal (Hamburg), is a memorial sculpture located in the St. Pauli quarter, dedicated to Otto von Bismarck. The monument was built by W. Müller. - The Charlottenburg U-Bahn station, built by Alfred Grenander. - The Almemor (raised platform also called bema, bimah or bima) of the synagogue in Lindenstrasse (Berlin). The synagogue was built in 1881 by Cremer & Wolffensteir. Some of the buildings featured in this work were built in the style of the Jugendstill (Art Nouveau). Minor abrasion to spine. Binding rubbed along edges. Text in German. Binding in overall good- to good, interior in very good condition.

Berlin: Ernst Wasmuth, 1923. 1st ed. in German. Hardcover. Good. 68 mounted plates (mostly in color) plus several smaller, mostly mounted, illustrations (some color) on text pages, Original vellum quarterbinding (purple boards backed in vellum). 37 cm. Small gilt figure on front cover. Front and back cover quite faded around outlines of smaller books that protected the original color. Center half of rear joint split (and then visibly reglued).

Munich: Marees Gesellschaft, R. Piper & Co. Verlag, 1918. First Limited Edition Thus. Full Pigskin (Full Leather), with custom slipcase. Near Fine. No. 162 of 200, with one of 150 on hand-made paper of Wiggins, Teape & Co. 240 copies in all were made, including unnumbered copies (212 were numbered in one of two ways). 4to. (27 by 20 cm.) 282, [5] pp. The outstanding aspects of this edition and copy in which Ovid's verse is rendered in both Latin and German translation are magnificent decorative pigskin binding, the flowing type, and the elegant page decoration, which includes a huge variety of cameo images. These images are never repeated exactly, it should also be noted. Resulting is a book of extraordinary beauty, both exterior and interior-wise. Aesthetically the book production is true to the classical in its lines and sensibility while being securely of its own time when a sinuous Art Nouveau or Jugendstil was ripening into a modernist economy, or Art Deco. There are sensuous Rococo details, such as the gilt lines etched into the spine, while one can not but be impressed with the lack of clutter on each and every page! While the type is not a plain Roman or the like, the gentle curvature of the cursive invites and soothes the eye, and every word should be crisply clear to the modern reader. Light soiling and darkening on the spine. Clean and tight within. The slipcase has some wear.

Wilton Park, England: NP, 1946. First edition. Softcover. vg. Collection of two German POW Camp Newspapers providing a first-hand account of the feelings and emotions of the men, as well as their day-to-day activities during their internment in Great Britain. The monthly newspapers were produced by prisoners in Berechurch Hall (Camp 186) and in Wilton Park: - "Anruf: Zeitschrift der deutschen Kriegsgefangenen in Wilton Park, Nr. 1, Februar 1946." Folio. 25, [1]pp. Original illustrated wrappers. "Anruf" was published in Wilton Park (Beaconsfield), a war camp set up in 1942 to hold prisoners likely to have information of high intelligence value, such as German and Italian officers, pilots and u-boat commanders. Among the occupants was Gerd von Rundstedt, the last Commander-in-Chief of German forces in the West. The White House was a three storey Palladian mansion that was turned into an officers' mess for staff and interrogators. A series of Nissen huts was built for staff of other ranks. Prisoners were housed in a compound of flat-roofed brick and concrete cells. The first high ranking prisoners began to arrive in the middle of 1943. These included Marshall Messe, Field-Marshalls von Rundstedt and Busch and Rudolph Hess. As the summer of 1945 turned into autumn, the generals and the marshals departed. By November 7, 1945, Wilton Park was ready for its new role, a re-education facility for German prisoners of war. Indeed, between January 1946 and June 1948 more than 4,000 Germans attended re-education classes at Wilton Park, where they discussed democratic processes with visiting political figures and intellectuals, including philosopher Bertrand Russell, social reformer Lord William Beveridge, and the first female Member of Parliament, Lady Astor. The first participants at Wilton Park included some of the most senior German PoWs in Britain and many became leading figures in the rebuilding of post-war Germany. Helmut Schmidt, for example, the former German Chancellor, hailed Wilton Park’s role for post-war Germany, stating that “many ideas became a political reality.” The success of these classes is epitomised in one German participant’s statement of his time at Wilton Park: “I was a Nazi; I came to Wilton Park and it changed my life.” This first issue of "Anruf" opens with a long poem by Wolfgang Weyrauch titled "Anruf." Articles by Martin Guetter; Dr. Erwin Weghorn; Gustav Radbruch; Justus Franz Wittkop; Alfred Brasch, and others. The articles deal with current problems in Europe, democracy 'as exemplified in Britain,' the Nuremberg Trial, the United Nations organization, politics, religion, etc.. and above all a strongly anti-Nazi stance. Includes two in-text b/w drawings of the camp. Contemporary stamp on inside of front cover: "Wilton Park Training Centre. Authorised to be retained by P. W. Georg Kunz - 312 495 (prisoner's name and matricule are handwritten). Typed text in German. Wrappers and interior in overall very good condition. - "Querschnitt: Monatszeitschrift des Camp 186." Folio. 20pp. Original illustrated stappled wrappers. "Querschnitt" was published in Berechurch Hall (Essex), a camp which served as one of the country’s largest transit centres for German prisoners captured during the final stages of the Second World War. It was the first 1,500 men to arrive on September 19, 1944, who helped the camp take shape in those early days. Transported in by lorry at night, they were ordered to pitch their own bell-tents on a field encircled by a few strands of barbed wire. Work on improvised kitchen and toilets did not start until the next day, and hot food was not available until that night. But as Camp 186 grew to cope with more than 6,000 prisoners at a time, new facilities, including Nissen huts for housing and a 120-bed medical center, were added. There were also orchestras, a newspaper ("Querschnitt"), two theatre groups - one of which performed the works of Dante, Schiller and Shakespeare in large marquees - and even a 300-student Catholic seminary. This issue contains articles by Heinz C. Woelfle (of the Geheimefeldpolizei, who served in the Channel Islands at a base called "Silvertide," Havre-de-Pas, Jersey); Dr. F. Glasau; Herbert Hellmann, and others. Illustrated with two woodcuts (front and back covers), and 6 inside. The content features various items such as news reports (Nuremberg Trial), gardening, alimentation, entertainment programs, and above all, the usual anti-Nazi editorial stance. Minor and faint creasing mark throughout. Typed text in German. Wrappers and interior in overall very good condition.
