Description:
1882 MORMON Journal of Heber Kimball Missionary LDS Joseph Smith Nauvoo Demons

Heber C. Kimball was a 19th-century leader in the early Mormon church and the first President of the Church of Jesus Christ, Latter-Day Saints. His journal was published in 1882 as part of a series of book designed to teach young Mormons about their faith and the history of the religion – 'The Faith Promoting Series'.
In 1837, Joseph Smith called Kimball to lead a group of Mormon missionaries in England. While on this journey, Kimball kept detailed notes in his journal which told of baptisms, Mormon rites and practices, encountering evil spirits, correspondence with Smith, adventures in Nauvoo when returning home, as well as general observations of 19th-century England.

1862 Japanese Woodblock Print Shaka Hasso Snake Demon Samurai Color Illustrated

A rare, 19th-century Japanese woodblock print of 'Shaka Hassou Yamato Bunko." "Shaka Hassou Yamato Bunko" is a biography of Buddha written by Mantei Oga and illustrated by Ichiyousai Toyokuni. Buddhism originated in Northern India, or present-day Nepal where the historical Buddha (Prince Siddhartha, Gautama Buddha), was born and lived. When Buddhism arrived in Japan, Siddhartha became known in Japan as Shaka or Shakamuni. Stories of Shaka's life were commonly told through selecting eight events to represent his life. This 'Shaka Hassou,' was aimed at the general populace, using the "eight phases" as a device to teach the important points of Shaka's life as well as a means of entertainment.
This rare 1862 edition is written in the typical handwritten column format with illustrations of snakes, battles, samurai, courtesans, demons, and more!

1883 Our Wild INDIANS Native American Tecumseh Sherman SCALPING Sioux Apache

'Our Wild Indians' is a fascinating late 19th-century account of the lives and customs of Native American Indians written by Richard Dodge, a military aide to General Sherman. This book is a broad discussion of practices and lifestyles witnessed by American military figures such as:
• self-torture and scalping
• stagecoach ambushes
• mysterious Indian medicine and sacred rituals
• descriptions of Indian teepees
• gambling and drunkenness in Indian cultures

Dodge outlines the differences between the customs of the 'white man', and those of the Apache, Sioux, Cheyenne, Arapahoe, Kiowa, and Comanche people. William Tecumseh Sherman supplemented this first edition with an introduction, giving authority to the work and descriptions of Indians.

1904 Confederate Civil War Reminiscences General John B Gordon Union Memorial

"Gordon had a way of putting things to the men that was irresistible, and he showed the men, at all times, that he shrank from nothing in battle on account of himself." –Lt. Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson

General Robert E. Lee considered his compatriot, John Brown Gordon to be one of his most reliable and trustworthy generals during the US Civil War. Himself a general in the Confederate States Army, Gordon would endure not one, but two severe illnesses alongside eight significant wounds on the battlefield.

A rare "memorial edition" of Gen. John B. Gordon's famous autobiography, 'Reminiscences of the Civil War.' Held in high regard by many for its highly entertaining contents, this biographical work offers fascinating insight from a prominent Confederate military leader during one of the darkest times in US history.
