Description
Sofia: Internatsionalnata Knizharnitsa na Ivan Kh. Nikolov, 1913. Hardcover. First Bulgarian edition; 6 x 8 3/4; pp. [17], 4-162, [6]; rebound in 3/4 marbled cloth and paper over boards; morocco label to spine; original wraps bound-in; cloth and label to spine a bit faded; minor wear to corners; foxing mostly contained to first and last several pages; illustrated with plates, photographs, and 4 large fold-out maps; name of previous owner to upper margin of front wrap; very good or better. The author, Lieutenant in the Austro-Hungarian Army Hermengild Wagner, was a special correspondent for the Vienna Reichspost and the London Daily Mail in Bulgaria during the First Balkan War (The War of 1912-1913). His book, published in English as "With the Victorious Bulgarians," was based on his own eyewitness account and notes from the moment the Bulgarian Army was mobilized through the battles raging for the next year. Recent research of Bulgarian archives from the time period (Iavorski, Velin. "Goniat Korespondenti zaradi Voenna Taina." Bulgarska Armiia: 4/12/2013) have unearthed an alleged cover up of international correspondents being chased, restricted, and arrested by army authorities in order to prevent them from sending reports to the media and thus intentionally or unwittingly revealing military secrets and battle strategies. Apparently, Wagner was one of the harassed journalists. Towards the end of the war, he had spent a week on the battlefield around Edirne, Turkey and was on his way back to Sofia when he was "caught" counting cannons being transported on trains. He was arrested, accused of being a spy, and thrown out of Bulgaria. The previous owner of the book,Capt Elmer Ernest Count, Jr., was the son of Elmer Ernest Count - an author of numerous religious articles and works and a Methodist missionary in Bulgaria.
