Rochambeau, 48.
New edition illustrated with the same 235 beautiful vignettes by François Chauveau that adorned the 1678-1694 edition.
This is the first time "que les livres sont numérotés d'une façon normale de un à douze" (Rochambeau).
The privilege of this edition was first granted to Michel David, who gave it to the booksellers Guignard, Charpentier, Cavelier, Osmont, Ribou, Clouzier, and the Libraires Associés.
A very good copy of this attractive edition, despite a damaged spine.
