Pamphlet. Zustand: Good. Corrected Copy, January 16, 1919 (originally published November 20, 1918). Pamphlet: Tan binding, 25 pages. Written by John J. Pershing, General, Commander in Chief, American Expeditionary Forces, to the Secretary of War. It addresses the organization and operations of the American Expeditionary Forces f…rom May 26, 1917, until the signing of the armistice, November 11, 1918. Included is the separate folding map (very scarce), "The Meuse-Argonne Offensive: First, Second and Last Phases." In the pamphlet, Pershing comments that he and a selected small staff proceeded to Europe in order to become familiar with conditions, thus, the report, November 20, 1918 (later corrected and republished in 1919). Condition of pamphlet: Binding has short tears/chips to extremities, old liquid marks, a fold, considerable toning of paper. The toning extends to the blank page facing the rear cover. The pages have minor creases and faint age toning; however, text is clear and very readable. This is an important document of the military covering topics such as the General Staff; American Zone; Growth of the Services of Supply; Artillery, Airplanes and Tanks; Combat operations; and more. Condition of large folding map: Several tears at folds, else very clear and easy to read. Both pieces scarce and very collectible.

First edition of this final military report from the heroic Commander-in-Chief of the American Expeditionary Forces. Octavo, original wrappers, illustrated with sixteen folding plates of maps, diagrams, and charts. Boldly signed by General John J. Pershing on the title page. In very good condition with light wear to the extremit…ies and a chip to the spine. Rare signed. General of the Armies John Joseph "Black Jack" Pershing was a senior United States Army officer. He served most famously as the commander of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) on the Western Front in World War I, 1917â"18. In addition to leading the A.E.F. to victory in World War I, Pershing notably served as a mentor to many in the generation of generals who led the United States Army during World War II, including George Marshall, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Omar Bradley, Lesley J. McNair, George S. Patton and Douglas MacArthur. During his command in WWI, Pershing rejected British and French demands that American forces be integrated with their armies, and insisted that the AEF would operate as a single unit under his command, although some American divisions fought under British command, and he also allowed all-black units to be integrated with the French army.

Ephemera. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Autograph; 9" X 7"; 1 pages; A typed letter SIGNED by John J. Pershing on printed letterhead reading "General of the Armies / Washington" The letter is dated March 25, 1926 and is addressed to "The Honorable / Peter Augustus Jay, / American Ambassador, / Buenos Aires, Argentina" The t…ext reads: "My dear Mr. Ambassador: // This note will be presented to / you by Mrs. F.J. Perry, a very good friend / of mine who is making a trip along the east / coast of South America. She is an Army / woman who rendered very distinguished / services during the World War and I shall / appreciate any courtesies which you or the / Military Attache may find it convenient to / extend to her. // With very warm regards, believe me / Yours sincerely, [signed] John J. Pershing" Included is the printed calling card of Mrs. Frederick Lewis Perry with the penciled note "Savoy Hotel" , card bears a mark from old paperclip. General John J. Pershing had a long association with Mrs. Frederick Lewis Perry; in fact, his brother Ward B. Pershing was best man at the wedding of Mary Hooper Jouett and Lt. Frederick Lewis Perry in 1901. At the time of this letter, Peter A. Jay was U.S. Ambassador to Argentina. It is interesting to delve into the history related to the three individuals principal to this piece of correspondance. MRS. FREDERICK LEWIS PERRY -- Mary Hooper Jouett Perry (1868-1945) was the daughter of Major William Burchett Hooper of the Occidental Hotel in San Francisco. Major Hooper ventured to California in the first years of the gold rush. Rather than cast his lot with the miners, he embarked in the mercantile business on an extended scale. Through his management, the Occidental Hotel acquired a wide fame and became the recognized hostelry for naval and military officers and ecclesiastical and fraternal leaders. Nearly three years after his death, the hotel was severely damaged in the 1906 earthquake and had to be torn down. In September 1901 Mary Hooper Jouett married Lt. Frederick Lewis Perry of the Artillery Corps, U.S.A. at the Occidental Hotel. Lt. Ward Beecher Pershing (4th Cavalry, U.S.A., brother of General John J. Pershing) was Perryâs best man. [Ward Pershing (1874-1909) died of illness contracted during his service in the Philippines War.] Lt. Perry, as aide to General Hale in the First Colorado Infantry, was slightly wounded in the Philippines. Perry was soon promoted to Captain, and they spent years at various postings from Virginia to the San Francisco Bay Area. Mary had two sons, William Hooper Jouett and John Hamilton Jouett; both served in the military. Recruited by Chiang Kai-shek, retired Major John H. Jouett lead 17 American instructor pilots, who were hired to turn the Chinese Aviation School into a replica of the United Statesâ Randolph Field. They spent two years in the war-torn nation completing the training of 335 Chinese cadets using an American system similar to the one used at Randolph Field in Texas. PETER AUGUSTUS JAY -- Peter Augustus Jay (1877 â" 1933) was an American diplomat born in 1877 at Newport, Rhode Island, into the esteemed Jay family that traces its direct lineage to John Jay, Founding Father and first Chief Justice of the United States. In 1902, he began his professional diplomatic career at the American embassy in Paris followed by service in Constantinople. Jay became Chargà d'Affaires in Tokyo in 1908, where he served until the end of 1909 when President William Howard Taft appointed him Consul General to Egypt in Cairo (1910 - 1913). In 1920, President Woodrow Wilson appointed Jay as U.S. Minister to El Salvador; soon after President Warren G. Harding, made him U.S. Minister to Romania (1921-1925), where he assisted in negotiating that country's repayment terms of $42 million for wartime and post World War I development loans. In 1925, President Calvin Coolidge appointed him U.S. Ambassador to Argentina. This was his last foreign service job, as he resigned his post and returned to Washington, D.C in.
