1988réf. 855c6104Canada: Eden Press 1988. Book. Illus. by Altobello Peter David. Very Good. Hardcover. First Edition. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. 128 pages. "Bears witness to a bygone era when the ships of the Great Lakes were built according to a single premise the need to transport steel iron ore grain and cargo from port to port. Yet the exteriors of these extraordinary ships belie the interiors which were constructed with a less utilitarian purpose in mind. Fine woodwork was applied to crew cabins; dining rooms and staterooms were finished with white oak mahogany walnut and brass. This elegant beauty suggested a state of mind dedicated to exquisite craftsmanship which like the ships themselves is gone forever. Here are 64 of the author's stunning illustrations capturing the mood and atmosphere he felt lingering in each ship. The S.S. Birchglen and other ships are preserved in the rich full textures of these sketches." - from dust jacket. Book clean tight and unmarked with light wear. Average wear to price-clipped dust jacket.

Contemporary half calf, spine gilt in compartments, gilt lettering, green paper covered boards, a bit shaved.

First edition, quite scarce. Probably printed in Paris. In January 1787 Brissot, St. Jean de Crèvecoeur, Clavière and Bergasse founded in Paris the Société Gallo-Américaine with the purpose of advancing mutual understanding and trade between France and the U.S. This survey of the actual situation in the United States deals with: De la guerre contre les sauvages. - Des troubles de l'État de Massasuchets. - etc. At the end: 'pièces justificatives'.'Économique et démographique. Principes généraux qui doivent diriger le commerce extérieur des nations, et des rapports commerciaux pouvant unir la France et les États-Unis .... (INED).Dedicated to the American Congress, this work is a systematical treatise on the mutual advantages that the new American republic and France will gain from their commercial relations. It further contains an argument in favour of the American political system where there is anarchy nor slavery.Second work: Stourm 183; Kress B.1564; Goldsmiths 13874; Einaudi 1119; INED 1126.In this work Clavière refutes the opinions of the day concerning the French finances and suggests measures to improve the situation.

Sabin 12166; Leclerc 845; Fay 40; Echeverria & Wilkie 801/4. First edition. This publication is one in a group which was typical of revived French-American fraternity in the early 19th century, dwelling on the similarities between the American and the French revolution, comparing Napoleon with Washington, and the struggle against the English. The work was therefore dedicated to Napoleon while the authors were careful to explain that American Liberty meant respect for the law, not license, and that the doctrine of the social contract and the principle of equality were not to be misinterpreted as signifying pure democracy or an unrestricted franchise (see at length: Echeverria, Mirage in the West, p. 255). Only after 1804 and the coronation of the Emperor, parallels between Washington and Napoleon were no longer politically desirable.

Edition published in the same year as the first edition. Butel-Dumont argues that Great-Britain owes her power and wealth to the colonies. He analyses the commerce and trade as well as the population of the British colonies at the time of the Guerre du Canada. With the outbreak of the Seven Years War, many of whose battles were to be fought in the New World, considerable curiosity about the British colonies was excited. This was one of the books profiting from this curiosity. It emphasized the phenomenal growth and prosperity of the colonies. 'This is the first extensive French text on the British North American colonies and was occasioned by the heightened tensions preceding the Seven Years War. It gives accounts of the geography, history, religion, government, economics, trade, and products of the several colonies' (Echeverria & Wilkie). According to INED this work was also attributed to Véron de Forbonnais.
