Comment la chambre des députés et la Chambre des Pairs pourraient être constituées en France
-
First edition. Original pale blue soft covers. Reasonably clean, but with a touch of darkening / marking to the covers. There is a small private library label to the front cover.* To the top of the cover is inscribed "pour M. Sarrat," possibly indicating a copy given by the author? The paper binding has some splitting to the spine, but has been reinforced with archival tape. Facing the title page is a printed label, tipped in, apologising for the slight delay in publishing. This explains that due to the turmoil of the year, it was felt prudent to wait, so as not to influence events. The publisher writes "now that the bomb has gone off" it is safe to publish. This probably refers to the formation and fall of the Thiers ministry, the return of Guizot to a dominant role, and the Boulogne affair involving Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte. These events unfolded during the July Monarchy, when the Chamber of Deputies was already divided over how far parliamentary government should go and how much power the king should retain. Baron de Morogues, born and died at Orléans (1776-1840), mineralogist and agronomist; devoted himself to improving the productivity of the Sologne and the condition of the poor, using his political influence in furtherance of these aims. Author of numerous scientific and political works, including the present one (Hoeffer XXXVI, col. 629). 98 pages including the index. Internally in good condition, but with light to moderate foxing. 20cm x 12.5cm. Conforms to WorldCat / OCLC: 457069246 which notes only one library holding (BnF) of this original edition. * label for the bibliothèque du fonds Bergevin to the top of the front cover. Taking its name from the two leading figures of the Bergevin family, Louis-Athanase Bergevin (1753-1832) and his son Louis-Catherine (1798-1876), were magistrates from Blois and major landowners in Saint-Gervais-la-Forêt. The collection was dispersed at auction in Véndome in 2022.
