Description from the seller
MONTLOSIER (François-Dominique de Reynaud, comte de). Memoirs on the French Revolution, the Consulate, the Empire, the Restoration, and the principal events that followed it. Paris, Dufey, 1830. Two octavo volumes, softbound, XX-420 and 426 pages; about 15.5 × 24.5 cm.
Original edition and the only volumes published of a six-volume set planned. Despite the period 1755–1830 indicated in the title, the published narrative stops at the early years of the Revolution. A deputy of the nobility of Auvergne, Montlosier recounts from within the beginnings of the Constituent Assembly, the discussions on the organization of powers, and the Festival of the Federation. The second volume closes with political couplets.
Copy with large margins, in its two publisher's printed and numbered covers; ancient manuscript annotation on the half-title of the first volume. Collation of the edition reported by the Librairie historique Fabrice Teissèdre.
Condition: covers browned, foxing scattered and small edge wear.
