Stunning binding.Sully left a collection of memoirs Mémoires otherwise known as the Économies royales 1638 written in the second person very valuable for the history of the time and as an autobiography in spite of the fact that they contain many fictions such as a mission undertaken by Sully to Queen Elizabeth I of England in 1601.Maximilien de Béthune 1st Duke of Sully Marquis of Rosny and Nogent Count of Muret and Villebon Viscount of Meaux 13 December 1560 – 22 December 1641 was a nobleman soldier statesman and counselor of King Henry IV of France. Historians emphasize Sully's role in building a strong centralized administrative system in France using coercion and highly effective new administrative techniques. While not all of his policies were original he used them well to revitalize France after the European Religious Wars. Most however were repealed by later monarchs who preferred absolute power. Historians have also studied his Neostoicism and his ideas about virtue prudence and discipline. J Rivington unknown

rif. 200816SMDeux tomes en un seul volume in folio (25 x 38 cm), 4ff +535 pages + 4ff + 459 pages. La pagination est hasardeuse. Par exemple dans le tome 1 on passe de la page 193 à la page 294. Dans le tome 2 on passe de la page 459 à 466, 467, 462 puis 459. Imprimé à AMSTELREDAM, chez ALETINOSGRAPHE DE CLEARETIMELEE & GRAPHEXECON DE PISTARISTE , A l’enseigne des trois Vertus couronnées d’Amaranthe. La page de titre est décorée d’une vignette (14 x 15 cm) colorée en rouge et vert, illustrant la phrase précédente. Les deux premiers tomes des mémoires de Maximilien de Béthune (Duc de Sully, Ministre de « l’Economie et des Finances » d’Henri IV) imprimés dans son château en 1638/1640, en très petit nombre (moins de 500), sont maintenant rarissimes, et ont donné lieu, dès l’origine, à des contrefaçons. Les deux tomes suivants, et derniers, ont été imprimés à Paris en 1662. On connaît trois impressions de l’édition à la page de titre illustrée « aux trois vertus », avec quelques différences entre elles : la véritable originale (imprimée au château de Sully) et deux contrefaçons. Il est bien difficile de s’y retrouver. La véritable originale comporte 2 variantes : la première avec un s minuscule au mot soldat sur la page de titre, le verso de cette page de titre étant vierge (A). La deuxième avec un S majuscule au mot Soldat sur la page de titre, au verso sont imprimés deux sonnets, « Fortune de la Vertu » et « Vertu de la Fortune » (B). Dans le titre de chaque variante le mot « royales » comporte un seul « l ». Dans les contrefaçons il en comporte deux. Page 470 et suivantes du tome 1, l’originale comporte un parallèle de César avec Henri IV en caractères romains. Dans l’une des deux contrefaçons, celle dite de Rouen, imprimée en 1649, ce texte est en italique. (D’après Cioranescu, Brunet, Barbiche) Le volume en vente ici appartient à l’autre contrefaçon. Il a une page de titre version A, le mot royalles avec 2 « l » et le parallèle César-Henri IV en caractères romains.
1914rif. 6590Dardanelles: Unpublished 1914. Hardcover. Good. pp 48 blanks. Water-stained Gallipoli naval diary culminating in the actions in the Dardanelles in February and March 1915: 'The Captain told us were were going to take part in the forcing of the Dardenelles. a real hot time shells dropping all round us and going "plonk" against the ships side.'. Red cloth-bound manuscript book water-damaged and lacking the backstrip although the binding is intact. Writing in pencil on the front paste-down Houghton who grew up on the Lancashire coastline records 'T Houghton. Log of HMS Albion' with a preliminary page which lists dates and locations visited by the pre-dreadnought battleship between August 1914- April 1916 before continuing to the main log also written in pencil. There are a few days to each significant date written in an easily legible hand with a full typed transcript accompanying the journal. Houghton departed Devonport in August 1914 sailing first to South Africa where the ship supported the action against German south west Africa and then transferred to the Mediterranean where Houghton proceeds to hostilities on February 19th 1915: 'The hands called this morning at 5.30am and went to breakfast at 6.45 ship cleared for action. proceeded to sweep the Bay of Giata Pete from where it is intended to bombard the forts of the narrows overland action sounded off at 10am the first shot fired at 10.20am the object being a signal station which was believed to be fortified in all we fired 8 rounds of ammunition.' The bombardment of 25th February is dealt with in great detail as 'Six ships in pairs made an attack on the forts engaging 4 and 6 on the way in closing to 3000 yards then turning and engaging 1 and 3 on the way out: The "Vengeance" and "Cornwallis" were the first pair. There was plenty of shells flying about and it was not known until after the engagement that a mine thrown up too soon from the shore had saved as as it was only 50 yards away. ammunition used by us 286 rounds of 6' The bombardment of 26th February describes 'a real hot time shells dropping all round us and going "plonk" against the ships side.' The diary breaks off on March 27 1915 with a few pages that follow this torn out leaving only their stubs - possibly through censorship since it was in the following month that HMS Albion beached on a sandbank and had to be towed clear with significant injuries and damage to the vessel. Houghton certainly survived the war since a newspaper clipping laid in records his death in the 1960s. Also present a World War II 7th Armoured division desert-rat badge and some photographs of post-war bridge building on the Elbe in Germany. Good 1914 Unpublished hardcover
