Original o primera edición
Paris, Rapilly (volumes 3 & 4: A. Levavasseur), 1829-1831. With portrait. 4 volumes. (4), 396 pp.; (4), 396 pp.; (4), viii, 384 pp.; (4), 380 pp. 8vo. Contemporary half calf, spine gilt in compartments, green labels with gilt lettering. Drujon 248; Kuscinski, Dictionnaire des Conventionnels, pp. 406-408. First edition. Forbidden for containing 'attaques à la dignité royale et des outrages à la religion de l'État ainsi qu'à la morale publique, l'apologie de la souveraineté du peuple, de l'égalité absolue, l'éloge du régime de 93, etc'. The volumes 3 & 4 were published not only later, but also by a different publisher. Drujon knows the first two volumes only: the volumes 3 & 4 were condamned, seized and destroyed, being too much an apology of the revolutionary government, hence complete sets are of extreme rarity. The author was a supporter of Robespierre and these memoirs deal for the major part with the period August 10, 1792 upto the fall of Robespierre. The rest deals with his activity as a "représentant en mission" with the armies operating at the borders and in the Vendée.
