FINAL REPORT of the GETTYSBURG BATTLE-FIELD COMMISSION

by James N. Duffy, Gottfried Krueger William H. Corbin

$ 30

This report covers everything about the New Jersey monuments at Gettysburg.
It starts with planning and financial aspects, and covers all of the dedication
exercises done when they were dedicated.

The most useful part of the report are the dedication speeches given at each
monument. Veterans who were at the battle spoke about their service and things
they remembered about those days in 1863.

In some cases, this may be the only record of some of these soldier’s statements and personal recollections.

“This comprehensive treatise, based on Dr Warlop’s doctoral dissertation, has been translated by Professors JB Ross and H Vandermoere. While medieval European nobility has received substantial attention in general, the Flemish nobility had been somewhat neglected.

I and II follows the Flemish nobility from its Frankish antecedents, through mature feudalism to the rise of the modern state, while Part 2, again in two parts, provides a series of genealogical tables and charts, together with an index.” Foundation for Medieval Genealogy

Quarto 172, 231 pp. Some plates tipped in. In Russian with an 11 page summary in English.

 “The Kyiv Psalter, also called the Spyridon Psalter, is unique. It is the only preserved Slavonic manuscript of its kind dating to the period before the fifteenth century. It is also anachronistic, produced in 1397 but illustrated in a style typical of the eleventh century. A marginal Psalter, it was a very valuable treasure in the medieval period as “the book of Psalms is of all books, the mother.”
