Edited by Murphy Givens. 9.25"x6.25", 216 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Autobiographies are usually published about the rich, famous and notorious. Perhaps that is why the memoirs of Daniel P. Whiting have not been printed for 150 years. Whiting was not rich, famous or notorious. He was a loyal officer in the U.S. Army for three decades during the middle of the 19th century. His career began in the time of Daniel Webster and John C. Calhoun. It coincided with a period in American history when the country was moving West in those tumultuous years of Manifest Destiny. As an infantry officer, Whiting seemed to be in the thick of every crisis. He was in Florida during the Seminole wars. He was in Indian Territory in today's Oklahoma. He was in Corpus Christi when Texas became a state and in the bombardment of Fort Brown when the Mexican War began. He was with Zachary Taylor at Monterrey and Winfield Scott at Veracruz. He was in Utah Territory during the "Mormon troubles" and was on garrison duty out West when the Civil War began. During his far-flung service, he fathered seven children with his beloved wife until her untimely death after child-birth. Whiting wrote his autobiography during the last years of service. He retired during the Civil War after long years of duty in war and peace at a time of decisive change in American history. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed.

8vo. Blue cloth with gilt stamped title on the backstrip. 230 pages. Near fine in near fine jacket. Daniel Powers Whiting served in the United States Army for 35 years, from his time as a West Point cadet, then officer in the 7th Infantry, until he was placed on the retirement list in 1863 from physical disability related to his… long years of service. He was a respected officer, with many friends in the service, who spent most of his career on the frontiers of a rapidly expanding country. His tours of duty included two stints in Florida during the bloody Seminole Wars he fought in major battles in the Mexican War, from the siege of Fort Brown, to the battles of Monterray, Veracruz and Cerro Gordo. Whiting in his long career was stationed at army posts in Kentucky, Missouri, Louisiana, Indian Territory, Mormon Country, and, at the start of the Civil War, in New Mexico and Colorado. From the private reference library of Dorothy Sloan with a commemorative bookplate loosely inserted. Blue cloth with gilt stamped title on the backstrip.

In den Warenkorb1st Edition. First edition. Presentation copy, inscribed on front upper wrapper in ink, in an unidentified hand: "Presented by Johnson Whiting". Five tinted lithographed plates by Chas. Fendrich, F. Swinton (2), and C. Parsons (2), after Whiting, printed by G. & W. Endicott. Each approximately 18 x 23 inches. Folio. A very scarc…e series of Mexican-American War views, which according to Whiting family tradition was limited to no more than twenty-four sets (quoted by Goodspeed's of Boston in "The Month at Goodspeed's Book Shop" Vol. XXI, Nos. 2-3, November - December, 1959, p.43). Daniel Powers Whiting was born in Troy, New York and graduated from the U.S. Military Academy, where he received formal training as a topographical artist. He was assigned to the 7th U.S. Infantry, with which he served in various garrisons before being promoted to captain in the spring of 1845. In the Mexican-American War he served with the army of Gen. Zachary Taylor and saw action in the battles of Fort Brown, Monterey, Vera Cruz, and Cerro Gordo. Late in 1845, General Taylor's army was camped at Corpus Christi, Texas. In January 1846 it advanced to the United States side of the Rio Grande, remaining there until May, when it marched on the strongly fortified city of Monterey, eventually taking the city in September. It was this portion of the campaign that is portrayed in the present work by Whiting. This work is one of the primary visual records of the conflict (with the Walke and Nebel portfolios), accurately recording the area at a turning point in its history. The plates are as follows: 1) "Monterey, As seen from a house-top in the main Plaza, [to the west.] October, 1846.[No. 1 of a Series.] [after the capture of the city by the U.S. Forces under Gen'l Taylor]." By Chas. Fendrich. 2) "Heights of Monterey, From the Saltillo road looking towards the City, [from the West,] [Worth's Division moving into position under the guns of the enemy, after the action of 'St. Jeronimo', on the morning of 21st. Septr. 1846].[No. 2]." By F. Swinton. 3) "Valley towards Saltillo, From near the base of 'Palace Hill', at Monterey. [Looking to the S.West.].[No. 3.] [with the rear guard and wagon train of the U.S. Army coming into the Castle after its capitulation]." By C. Parsons. 4) "Monterey, From Independence Hill, in the rear of the Bishop's Palace. As it appeared on 23d. September 1846. [Looking East.].[No. 4] [with the village of Guadaloupe and Sierra Silla, or Saddle Mountain, in the distance]." By F. Swinton. 5) "Birds-eye view of the Camp of the Army of Occupation, commanded by Genl. Taylor. Near Corpus Christi, Texas, [from the North] Oct. 1845." By C. Parsons. Whiting intended the series to continue beyond the single part which appeared; however, the loss of the original drawings for the other plates aboard a steamboat that sank in the Mississippi prevented any more than the present five plates being published.
