Description from the seller

VI^ edition of L'histoire des Croisades, a classic work on the Crusades dating from 1849 in 4 volumes, offers detailed historical accounts extracted from analyses of strategic chronicles, political and religious contexts written by the French historian Joseph François Micheau (1767 - 1839).
Reduced from the 1841 7-volume edition, it is a condensed format that preserves most of the reports and presents some unpublished sources, enriched by an appendix by M. Huillard Bréholles.
Binding in half-leather of the period with marbled endpapers, bands on the spine, gold lettering and gilded top edges.
The work contains 4 engraved title pages.
The fold-out map originally at the end of the fourth volume is missing.
Volume format in octavo (approx. 23 x 16 cm).
In addition, in very good condition considering the age of the volumes, which show scratches, abrasions and small losses on the leather portion of the covers.
The bindings show no sagging or looseness, and some pages have small brown spots.
Overall, the volumes can be considered in excellent condition.
