1862ref. 1862SansonEXECUTIONS IN FRANCE Sept Générations d'Exécuteurs 1688-1847: Mémoires des Sanson mis en ordre rédigés et publiés par H. Sanson. Paris: Dupray de la Mahérie 1862-1863. Six volumes each complete with half-title and probably large-paper copies but IV 67/68 with partial loss in lower blank. Tall 8vo unusually clean with hardly any spotting; gilt-stamped leather spines with matching black boards. First edition of this apocryphal memoir of the Sanson family based on family diaries and correspondence by the journalist D'Olbreuse detailing all the major executions from the late 17th century thru middle 19th century. The most famous member of the family is Charles-Henri Sanson 1739–1806 who served as the chief executioner of Paris during the French Revolution. He executed thousands of people—including King Louis XVI Marie Antoinette Danton and Robespierre. He was also closely involved in testing and adopting the guillotine as a more humane method of execution. The family's tenure ended in 1847 when Charles-Henri's grandson Henri-Clément Sanson was dismissed from office and arrested after pawning the family's official guillotine to cover mounting debts and gambling losses.

Edition: First edition. Binding: Full contemporary calf expertly rebacked with spine in six compartments of raised bands and finely-gilt motifs morocco label on two edges speckled red. Notes: This atlas was dedicated to the Superintendent of Finances at the time Nicolas Fouquet. Regarding a map of South and Central Africa published the year before which bears resemblance to this map of South Africa--‘Pays et Costes des Caffres’--in particular Norwich writes: “This map although a fine example of cartography is based on very little information; for example the desert-like coast of South West Africa is presented as a land rich in rivers. The fictitious states are given fictitious boundaries and the interior is marked with large cities such as Vigiti Magna and Monomotapa. This information led to subsequent exploration in search of these fabulous cities. Although the map is dated three years after the foundation of a settlement at the Cape by Jan van Riebeeck no mention is made of any European settlement anywhere in the south.” Size: 4to Illustration: Recent stencilled title. Complete with 18 maps of Africa and its territories in original outline colour. References: Tooley IV:103; Tooley Africa 100 Peyrounin edition; Norwich 37 & 158. Pages: P. 1-96.
