Book Synopsis Early Anglo-Saxon Belt Buckles (late 5th to Early 8th Centuries A.D.) by : Sonja Marzinzik
Download or read book Early Anglo-Saxon Belt Buckles (late 5th to Early 8th Centuries A.D.) written by Sonja Marzinzik and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2003 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Belt buckles, which were worn by both men and women in Anglo-Saxon England, not only had an obvious practical function, they also had a potent social significance for their wearers. Their archaeological value lies in the fact that, in a period in which coins were scarce, they can be used as dating evidence. This substantial volume explores the social aspects of dress accessories whilst presenting a typology and chronology of finds. Much of the study comprises an illustrated catalogue of over 1,200 examples. Tables and maps also explore the distribution of buckle types and their association with other objects. A useful reference.

Book Synopsis Accoutrement Belt Plates Exposed! by : Jeffry Peter La Marca
Download or read book Accoutrement Belt Plates Exposed! written by Jeffry Peter La Marca and published by Bogus Buckles. This book was released on 2008 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accoutrement Belt Plates: Exposed is a reprint of a catalog of fake belt buckles, allegedly created by the famed Tiffany & Co., that is believed to have first appeared sometime during the late 1970 ́s or early 1980 ́s. The original book was designed for one purpose - to deceive and confuse naïve collectors who were purchasing fake Tiffany & Co. brass and bronze belt buckles with a passion. These buckles appear to have been imported from England, in great quantities, as part of one of the greatest hoaxes ever perpetrated upon the American antiquities market. Accoutrement Belt Plates contains photographs of most of the bogus buckles (and buttons) that were created. Buckles are identified by name and an esoteric cataloging number has been assigned to each - most likely as part of an attempt to make these buckles appear as genuine antiques. Disturbingly, many modern collectors of these buckles still believe that they date back to the 1800¿s. Since their first appearance, these fantasy items have fetched outlandish prices in flea markets, gun shows, and swap meets across America. None of these buckles; however, were made until the 1960 ́s, at the very earliest. As to be expected, the company credited with originally printing this book, ¿Tiffany & Co. of London, England,¿ never existed - the real Tiffany & Co. is based out of New York. This new edition is presented in an attempt to halt the bogus belt buckle scam and the seemingly never ending promotion of them as genuine antiques. A preface has been added to provide readers with a bit of background on the buckle scam, photographs of some of the buckles mentioned but not contained in the original are presented for the first time, and the book is now fully indexed. While the original edition was part of a well planned scheme, it has been reproduced here to provide collectors with one important tool: it remains the only known record that lists most (but not all) of the bogus buckles and is therefore, valuable to those with an interest in them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1965, despite pronounced disadvantages in firepower and mobility, the Communist Vietnamese endeavored to crush South Vietnam and expel the American military with a strategy for a quick and decisive victory predicated not on guerrilla but big-unit war. Warren Wilkins chronicles the formation, development, and participation of the Viet Cong in the opening phase of the big-unit war and shows how the failure of that strategy profoundly influenced the decision to launch the Tet Offensive. Unlike most books on the war, this one provides an authentic account from the Communist perspective, wi ...

Book Synopsis Tiffany & Gaylord Express & Exhibition Belt Plates, Exposed! by : Jeffry P. La Marca
Download or read book Tiffany & Gaylord Express & Exhibition Belt Plates, Exposed! written by Jeffry P. La Marca and published by Bogus Buckles. This book was released on 2008 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning sometime during the 1960¿s, a scam of unprecedented proportions hit naïve American collectors of Civil War and Wild West memorabilia: a flood of allegedly antique brass and bronze belt buckles, purportedly manufactured by the famed Tiffany & Company of New York, along with other companies such as E. Gaylord of Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts, and Anson Mills, started turning up at flea markets, gun shows, and other venues all across the United States. The only problem was, neither Tiffany nor the others ever made these buckles. Furthermore, they were all of modern manufacture. Then, in order to further deceive collectors, a book, Tiffany & Gaylord Express & Exhibition Belt Plates, attributed to Percy Seibert appeared circa 1970 (not 1950 as falsely claimed on its copyright page), and made all kinds of outlandish claims regarding the history of these buckles. That book is being reprinted here, with the addition of a preface and an index, to assist those who continue to collect these fun, but certainly fake, ¿antiques.¿ This book has been sponsored by the Internet¿s leading authority on the Bogus Buckles: www.bogusbuckles.com

Book Synopsis Reminiscences Of The Civil War And Other Sketches by : Sergeant Ralph J. Smith
Download or read book Reminiscences Of The Civil War And Other Sketches written by Sergeant Ralph J. Smith and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short but colorful memoir by a sergeant in the 2nd Texas regiment, which served with distinction in the Western Theatre of the Civil War. Sergeant Smith volunteered in the first months of the outbreak of the Civil War, but his first real taste of the conflict came as part of the Army of the Mississippi under General Albert Sidney Johnson at Shiloh. The author recounts the confused nature of the fighting around the Hornet’s Nest and the sorrow of the repulse but above all the deep sense of loss at the death of their Confederate leader. After duties around the outskirts of Vicksburg, Smith and his comrades were among the Confederate soldiers that were penned up there by the Union forces under General Grant. Despite a fierce resistance the Confederate soldiers of Vicksburg were forced to surrender and the troops were paroled. Eventually exchanged, Smith spent the rest of the war in the garrison of Galveston under General Magruder before settling in San Marcos Texas.
