Descripción

This Very Good- condition first edition of La Fayette's memoirs is enhanced by one-sided steel engravings, including the frontispiece of the General. Other engravings include a page of portraits of Washington, Franklin, and Green, and another of Bonaparte, Louis XVIII, Louis XVI, and Marie Antoinette. The sewn binding is tight, although the leather covers are slightly separating on this 7.5 x 4.5 x 1.75-inch volume of 455 numbered pages. The brown leather is worn, and the pages show some foxing throughout. The book feels satisfyingly good in the hand, the way a book of this age should. N° de ref. del artículo 010922-2
