Octavo 5 volumes. Bound in three quarters contemporary black calf over olive green boards gilt titles and tooling to the spine raised tooled bands marbled endpapers all edges marbled engraved frontispiece portrait of Martin Luther with tissue guard present. In very good condition with Millard Fillmore's ownership inscription and library catalog notes on the title page of each volume "Millard Fillmore March 26 1857 Rebound April 16 1860" who has also crossed out the "J-5" bookshelf designation replacing it with "G-1" in pencil. An exceptional piece of American history from the President who created the White House Library. The 12th Vice President United States Millard Fillmore was elevated to the presidency in 1850 by the death of President Zachary Taylor. Born into relative poverty in upstate New York he became a prominent lawyer and politician in the Buffalo area and a Whig as the party formed in the 1830s in opposition to the policies of Andrew Jackson. During the American Civil War Fillmore was critical of Lincoln's war policies and openly denounced secession asserting that the Union must be maintained by force if necessary. As President he was instrumental in passing the Compromise of 1850 which led to a brief truce in the conflict between slave and free states which divided the Union and strengthened the Fugitive Slave Act which provided for the return of slaves who escaped from one state into another territory.

162622610Amsterdam i.e.Geneva: Heritiers de Hier. Comelin i.e. Pierre Aubert 1626. Second edition revised and augmented; folio pp. 20 1189 columns 744 columns so paged pp. 40; top of spine chipped 3 small worm holes through the upper cover and into the first few leaves; occasional light foxing but generally a clean sound copy in full contemporary calf gilt. D'Aubigne 1552-1630 was the son of a zealous Huguenot who instilled in him an abiding protestant sympathy and an almost reckless disregard for personal safety in the Protestant struggle. He was present at the siege of Orleans where his father was killed. He soon after went to Geneva to study under Beza. From there he attached himself to the Huguenot army under the command of the Prince of Conde. Eventually he joined the retinue of Henry of Navarre and proved himself of great service to the future king both as a soldier and a counselor. After Henry's elevation to the throne the king found d'Aubigne's rough manner and caustic criticisms tiresome in his literary works he freely exercised his gift of sarcasm with regard to the king and his family and the rift between the two widened when the king converted to Catholicism. By the time he published the third volume of the present work it was ordered to be burned by the common hangman so free and unguarded was its satire. He fled to Geneva in 1620 where he lived the rest of his life. The Histoire Universelle is the work for which d'Aubigne is best remembered "a lively chronicle of the incidents of camp and court life forming a very valuable source for the history of France during the period it embraces" EB-11. This copy has the place of printing Amsterdam neatly excised and patched and "a Geneve" printed by hand above and below the printer's imprint on the title page presumably indicating an issue from the author's city of refuge. This copy from the library of John Evelyn with the latter-day Evelyn bookplate Evelyn's accession number of the front flyleaf which itself is partially loose and the ownership signature on the title page of Sir Robert Offley whose daughter married Evelyn's brother George.

Complete with the engraved portrait by Massé (volume 5) and the two facsimiles.D'Aubigne (1552-1630, a French poet, soldier, propagandist and chronicler. His epic poem Les Tragiques (1616) is widely regarded as his masterpiece) was the son of a zealous Huguenot who instilled in him an abiding protestant sympathy and an almost reckless disregard for personal safety in the Protestant struggle. He was present at the siege of Orleans where his father was killed. He soon after went to Geneva to study under Beza. From there he attached himself to the Huguenot army under the command of the Prince of Conde. Eventually he joined the retinue of Henry of Navarre, and proved himself of great service to the future king, both as a soldier and a counselor. After Henry's elevation to the throne, the king found d'Aubigne's rough manner and caustic criticisms tiresome (in his literary works he freely exercised his gift of sarcasm with regard to the king and his family) and the rift between the two widened when the king converted to Catholicism. When Marie de' Medici became regent following Henry's assassination in 1610, she embraced the Counter-Reformation and Aubigné's isolation made him an easy target. He was proscribed in 1620 and fled to Geneva where he lived for the rest of his life, though the hatred of the French court showed itself in procuring a sentence of death to be recorded against him more than once. He devoted the period of his exile to study, and supervising the fortifications of Bern and Basel which were designed as a material defence of the cause of Protestantism. - Copy on heavy paper.
