ix, [1], 332 pages. Bibliography. Footnotes. Index. Several maps and reproductions of black and white photos. "The battle for British and world recognition of Canadian independence was fought on the plains of Belgium and France, bought with the blood of almost sixty thousand men and won in the end by the unparalleled achievements of the crack Canadian Corps. That these troops could go from victory to victory in a war best remembered for its bloodshed and defeats testifies to the strength of character and the tactical brilliance of the Corps Commander, Canada's greatest soldier, Sir Arthur William Currie. In this first reappraisal of Currie to appear in over thirty-five years, the author brings to life this giant of a man blessed with courage, intelligence and uncommon common sense, and reveals the true scope of his achievements not only as a solder but as a confidant of four prime ministers and as principal and vice-chancellor of McGill University which he led to its greatest prestige and renown." - from dust jacket.

"The first book to provide a comprehensive study of Dufy's complete work - much of which has never before been reproduced - and a full-fledged portrait of the man as well. Charts the path by which he arrived at his characteristic and entirelly individual style.

Deuxième édition, 1 vol. in-12 br., Librairie Académique Perrin et Cie, 1926, 208 pp. Rare exemplaire de cette étude consacré au curieux personnage d'Andrew Michael Ramsay (1693-1743) et à ses variations religieuses. Anglican converti au catholicisme et fortement influencé par Fénelon, il sera admis à la Royal Society en même temps que Montesquieu le 11 décembre 1729. L'année suivante, il sera le premier catholique depuis la Réforme à être élevé au grade de docteur en droit à l'université d'Oxford. Inité à la franc-maçonnerie en 1730, il est surtout connu pour le discours qu'il prononça le 26 décembre 1736 et qui devint l'un des textes fondateurs de la franc-maçonnerie française. Bon état (petit accroc sans mq. en couv., bon exemplaire par ailleurs) pour cet ouvrage peu commun. Français
