FROM BASTILLE TO VARENNES: THE MORNING POST REPORTS THE FRENCH UPHEAVAL, 1789-1791Biblio.com

Newspapers in the Shadow of 1789 : The Morning Post and Daily Advertiser : August 17 1789 ; Sept 9 1789 ; June 17 1791

ref. 373731Newspaper. Fair Condition. These three issues of The Morning Post and Daily Advertiser August 17 1789 September 9 1789 and June 17 1791 offer a rare glimpse into British press coverage during the volatile early years of the French Revolution. The first two dates fall just weeks after the Storming of the Bastille and the abolition of feudal privileges moments that electrified Europe and stirred both fascination and unease in London. British newspapers including the Morning Post began reporting translated extracts from Paris diplomatic reactions and fashionable commentary on the unfolding upheaval. These issues likely reflect the tension between admiration for revolutionary ideals and fear of social disorder'a duality that defined British public discourse in 1789. By June 17 1791 the tone had shifted. Just days before Louis XVI's attempted flight to Varennes the monarchy's fragility was becoming undeniable. British readers were now witnessing a revolution that was no longer theoretical but existential. The Morning Post known for its blend of domestic news and elite gossip may have framed these events with a mix of caution and curiosity reflecting the mood of a nation watching its neighbour unravel. Together these papers form a compelling triptych: a record of how Britain observed interpreted and reacted to the birth pangs of modern democracy'filtered through the lens of its own political anxieties and cultural sensibilities.

1854 CONTEMPORARY CRIMEAN WAR REPORTS, ISSUED BY THE TIMES WITHIN DAYS OF THE BATTLES THEMSELVESBiblio.com

1854 The Attack on Balaclava and The Battle of Inkermann. Two Special Report Issue of The Times newspaper dated November 13th and 23rd 1854

1854ref. 373729The Times London 1854. Newspaper. Good Condition. The two Times Special Reports dated 13 November 1854 The Attack on Balaclava and 23 November 1854 The Battle of Inkermann provide detailed contemporary accounts of two of the most significant engagements of the Crimean War. The Balaclava issue contains the earliest extended reports of the battle of 25 October including the now-legendary Charge of the Light Brigade official despatches from Lord Raglan and narrative descriptions that shaped public perception of both the disaster and the heroism involved. The Inkermann issue presents Lord Raglan's despatches and extensive coverage of the desperate fighting on 5 November 1854 when outnumbered British and French forces repelled a much larger Russian army. Together these issues stand as immediate first-hand printed records of events that soon became iconic in British military history. These copies are original 1854 issues of The Times not later reprints or bound compilations. Issued as separate folio supplements printed on rag-based paper and headed with the distinctive Times masthead and royal crest they were sold individually to provide the public with full stand-alone accounts of major battles. Survival of such ephemeral publications is uncommon making these examples both scarce and historically significant. Their value lies not only in their rarity but also in their role as primary sources that convey how the war was reported understood and remembered at the time. Two issues each four pages in length. Some minor marginal tears probably inevitable with newspapers of this sort. Preserved in a modern card cover prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 29 x 44.5 cms. Category: Antiquarian & Rare; Newspapers; Special Interest. This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK. If extra postage is required we will contact you before processing your order and you will be given the details and option to decline the extra cost. The Times unknown
