Paris: Alexis Hubert Jaillot 1696. Copper-engraved map with full original colour and gold embellishment in excellent condition. A stunning map of Normandy by Alexis Jaillot an exceptional example with gilt embellishments.<br/> <br/>One of the most important figures in French cartography Nicolas Sanson initiated the great school of French geographers. Born in Abbeville in 1600 Sanson established his first printing house in Paris in 1638. He soon became geographer to the king establishing himself as one of the most influential cartographers on the Continent. He was succeeded by his sons Adrien and Guillaume and by his son-in-law Pierre Duval who continued to publish a wealth of maps using Sanson's name. At the close of the seventeenth century Sanson's plates were purchased by the influential cartographer Alexis Hubert Jaillot who continued to publish his maps and atlases under Sanson's title. This stunning map of Normandy is based on Sanson's map published in 1650 but was redrawn and enlarged by Jaillot. It shows the provinces of Normandy as well as the northern tip of Brittany and part of the English Channel. Both Jersey and Guernsey are included as is Mont St. Michel off the coast of St. Malo. In keeping with all of Sanson's and Jaillot's superb maps forests rivers and towns are meticulously identified and named. The map includes an ornate cartouche in the upper section as well as a scale and key.<br/> <br/>Tooley Maps & Map-Makers pp. 40-41. Alexis Hubert Jaillot unknown books

Paris 1667. No Binding. Near Fine. 12 ½ x 17 inches. Original outline color; excellent. Earliest map of Martinique listed in Phillips featuring attractive original color and an elegant cartouche. This map depicts the situation on the island before 1660 when it was still largely inhabited by natives and only about half of it had been claimed by colonists for sugar cane farming. The map goes so far as to mark with a printed line the partition dividing the "demeure des François" and the "demeure des savages." However by 1660 the entirety of the native population was either dead expelled or in slavery and Martinique was a full-fledged sugar cane-farming European colony. Phillips Maps P. 389. unknown books

France: Ceux de la Resistance 1944. First edition. Color printed boards cloth back edges a little rubbed. 60 unnumbered pages : 12 full-pagebbcolor illustrations ; 32 cm. The authorship is perhaps not surprisingly a little obscure. The authors' full names as above are listed in the 1946 Catalog of Copyright Entries and the on-line catalog of the Bibliothek des Deutschen Historischen Museums while the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin substitutes "Samson" for "Nebelska". The BNF lists only the pseudonymous attributions. Wanda Stefanowska-Nebelska b.1919 under the nom-de-guerre "Christine" is listed in the database of the Musée de la résistance en ligne as a member of the Polish resistance in France. Maurice Denier if the author here is the same person was a playwright of the 1890s his identity slightly concealed by the reversed spelling. Published by C.D.L.R. Ceux de la Résistance for Christmas 1944. The cover illustrates the two devils on either side of the Cross of Lorraine with "V" for Victory. Two little devils join the FFI Forces Françaises de l'Intérieur and make things hot for the Germans. A 1946 sequel appeared 'Asfer et Sato en Alsace au service secret'. <br/><br/> Ceux de la Resistance hardcover books

Samson 1600-1667 is often referred to as the father of French cartography. Louis XIII was impressed with his work and appointed him "Geographe Ordinaire du Roi". During his career Sanson would produce about 300 maps and his major atlas "Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde" would represent an important part of his body of work. While two of his sons continued publication of his maps after his death Pieter Schenk 1655-1718 an important publisher and engraver in his own right published this map. The map is attractively colored and gives a detailed view of the provinces of France. The map is also decorated with a large title cartouche. Bagrow p. 185. map hist website.</p> books
