Paris: Pierre Emery etc. 1691-1738. Quarto. 36 volumes. First edition. A beautiful set in full mottled calf gilt with lettering-pieces and five raised bands to spines. Probably bound at publication of the final volume. Title woodcut and copper-engraved headpiece with history scene to each volume mostly by Sebastien LeClerc. Volumes 21-36 by Fabre are subtitled "Pour servir decontinuation a celle de Monsieur l'Abbe Fleury." Beginning with Volume 20 the imprints vary to include Jean Mariette Saugrain Pierre Martin and Hippolyte-Louis Guerin. A thorough theological historical and anecdotal chronicle of the Catholic Church from the time of the Evangelists to 1595. A standard work first published in 1691 and reprinted many times. Small losses to three spine ends wear to extremities and small superficial cracks to hinges of six volumes; occasional light waterstaining but on the whole a very good copy. The OCLC shows only one other copy of the first edition at Yale. unknown
