AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

François René de Chateaubriand. Mémoires d'outre-tombe.

At the Tarride Bookshop, rue de l'Écuyer, opposite rue de la Fourche; Panthéon Bookshop (volumes I to XVI), rue de la Montagne (volumes XVII to XX), 1848–1850, 20 volumes bound in 5 volumes, octavo (10 x 15 cm), complete.

Contemporary half bottle-green shagreen binding, smooth spine decorated with gilt fillets.

Partly a first edition. The first volumes of this Tarride edition are pre-editions, at least those corresponding to the first three volumes of the original French edition (Penaud frères), which would not appear until mid-January 1849, as announced in the Bibliographie de la France. Tarride drew on the daily newspaper La Presse, which published them in full as serials between October 21 and December 28, 1848. (See Van der Perre, Bulletin du Bibliophile, 1931, and Catalogue de la librairie Pierre Saunier Contrefaçons, préfaçons, malfaçons, no. 103.)

Complete with all half-titles, title pages, and pages.

A few browned pages; otherwise, a very handsome copy in a contemporary binding.

Free shipping, very well protected, by Colissimo registered mail within France and by DHL worldwide, with insurance included.
