Important Original Handwritten and Illustrated Journal of a Continental Tour Through France, Belgium, Prussia, Germany and Switzerland in the Summer of 1835 by The Honourable Frederick Fitz Clarence E:R:SA: S:S: of several British & Foreign literary Institutions", Frederick Fitz Clarence was the Illegitimate Third Son of King William IV and his Mistress Dorothea Jordan, handwritten in ink with hand drawn illustrations many in colour and other printed illustrations (from contemporary publications). Frederick describes his journey from the French coast, through France, Belgium, Prussia, Germany and Switzerland in considerable detail. He comments on any troops he sees, their dispositon and livery, he was a soldier himself, and also on the architecture and scenery. The towns and cities he stays at during the journey including Mons,Aix-La-Chapelle Coblenz, Geneva etc are commented upon and described. Travelling by coach he comments on the various forms this mode of transport takes as he progresses through Europe. While in Switzerland (16th July) the coach falls "over a precipice" due to the negligence of the Driver and from the accompanying hand drawn illustration it could have been fatal, as the carriage " completely turned over..we had a very narrow escape" 76pp., It appears that at least the last page is missing, though the return journey is almost complete. The lightly stitched binding is loose and the whole is contained in an untitled grey cover. Clarence has noted on the title page that the journal was "to be" printed by John Murray in London. However we can find no record of this so have concluded that the Journal was almost certainly unpublished. ( Note Lord Frederick FitzClarence was commissioned into the Coldstream Guards as a Captain and was in charge of a detachment from the Regiment that apprehended the Cato Street Conspirators in 1820, his life being saved by a Sergeant at the time. In 1852 he became Commander-in-Chief of the Bombay Army and died 2 years later in 1854 at the age of 55) A fascinating original Journal written by the son of William IV it was discovered by the vendor in a loft in Kent!

Faschingbauer is also responsible for the fact that, when 16,000 Jews came to Dachau in November 1938, they were given to wear only drill trousers, a summer shirt and a summer pullover, and they had to attend parade all winter long in these clothes… When, in November 1938, I allowed old military jackets to be given out in the prisoners' room in the blocks where the Jews were housed, he wanted to put me on a charge for 'friendliness towards Jews'… Witnesses of this are the then senior man in the block, Otto Grosse from Brunswick, and the Jewish prisoner, Dr. Fritz Spiegel, who later emigrated to America and served in the US Army. Faschingbauer had the jackets taken away'. With two file holes and minor creasing to the left edge, not affecting the text.

There, I worked as head of the administration in the commissariat section. In June 1943, I met with a serious accident in Riga, and was in hospital there until mid-October… In July 1944, I took over the administration of the SS field hospital at Kekestetoe…' and of Faschingbauer's time at Dachau, he recalls, 'I do not know how long individuals were interned there, with the exception of those who were put on to forced labour. These were sent there by individual towns or burgomasters for a fixed period of 3 to 12 months… Prisoners were put in charge of the cauldrons in the prisoners' kitchen.
