AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Royal Almanac of the common year 1789 presented to His Majesty for the first time in 1699 by Laurent d'Houry, publisher.
Published and issued by Debure, son-in-law of the late d'Houry... With the approval and privilege of the king.
Binding in poor condition with loss of material on the edge, minimal worm traces on the first pages.
Symbols of the monarchy hidden behind a label (possibly to be peeled off with steam by the future owner), as was customary after the revolution to keep royal almanacs for their content and not for their association with the monarchical order.
Fresh and fully equipped interior
The true bible of the Ancien Régime, with exhaustive compositions of all the bodies of the nation.
Births and alliances of kings and queens, cardinals, archbishops, bishops, abbeys, etc., houses, ministries, army, parliaments, notaries, universities, general farmers, post office, etc.
Laurent d'Houry imagines this almanac in 1683 at the request of Louis XIV.
An absolute reference work on the Kingdom of France under the Ancien Régime.
This year is, of course, highly symbolic.
Seller's Story
Good morning all,
The Abou-Sorro associative company offers books and objects for sale to finance the construction of a school group on the island of Kassa, in Guinea Conakry.
Two buildings, latrines and a recreational space have already come out of the ground and the first CP students made their return to school in October 2020.
The final objective is to build a third block to make the Sorro-Mangué school group fully operational in order to educate 400 children from the islands of Loos.
The members of the association are all volunteers and the earnings are entirely reserved for the association.
Thank you all for supporting this humanitarian and educational cause by your purchases on Catawiki, your donations, and / or memberships via our reference websites by typing the keywords "Abou-Sorro, a school for the island of Kassa".
