1816ref. FB988 /6BFrench. Tan calf spine with green marbled boards. Black title plates with gilt lettering and emblems. A nice copy of a book which was well credited when published circa 1690 René-Aubert Vertot 25 November 1655 in Bennetot Normandy – 15 June 1735 in Paris was a French clergyman and historian. He was for some time a pupil of the Jesuit Fathers seminary at Rouen which he left at the end of two years to enter the Capuchin Order. His health was greatly impaired by his austerities there and his family alarmed obtained permission for him to join the Premonstratensian Canons. Afterwards he was appointed pastor to several small parishes in Normandy. In 1690 at the suggestion of Fontenelle and the Abbé de Saint-Pierre he wrote his Histoire de la conjuration de Portugal. The book was received with favour and in 1695 appeared the Histoire des révolutions de Suède History of the Swedish revolutions. In 1703 Vertot was made a member of the Académie des inscriptions. Besides contributions to the Mémoires of the Académie and other minor works he wrote the Révolutions romains 1719 and Histoire des chevaliers hospitaller's de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem History of the Knights Hospitallers also known as Histoire de Malte History of Malta. It is related in connection with the latter that in answer to an offer of additional data about the great siege by the Ottomans in 1565 he said "Mon siège est fait" "My siege is finished" a phrase construed by some of his critics as an expression of his disregard for historical accuracy. Another interpretation of the comment is that he simply wished to get rid of an intruder who was trying to force upon him documents whose authenticity was very doubtful.
