Plats et intérieur frais malgré de petites rousseurs et une pâle auréole au bas des 6 premières pages, ainsi q'une presque imperceptible trace de pliure angulaire au coin inférieur droit des feuillets. Pas de grand papier annoncés. Nouvelle conjoncturale et récit Utopique dans lequel l'auteur imagine qu'un groupe de voyageurs européens que le hasard a réunis au restaurant de l’Hôtel du Louvre, décident de se constituer en Congrès, sous l’arbitrage d’un citoyen américain, pour débrouiller tous les nœuds, tirer au clair tous les principes, constater tous les droits, redresser toutes les frontières et fonder l’ordre européen en des bases inébranlables.

A little wear to joints and extremities well hidden by refurbishment a few superficial marks to covers otherwise a perfectly sound and not unattractive binding. Offsetting from frontispiece onto title a few other imperfections in the text small spots short tear to one leaf otherwise a nearly fine copy internally with thick paper that is fresh and clean with deep impressions of the type and with vast margins.<br/> <br/> This is a very pleasing copy of a work consisting of 15 chapters containing a great many admonitions relating to what is proper with regard to clothing walking and travelling visits gratitude salutations speech writing eating and drinking "marriage and uncleanness" plays and recreations acts of justice observation of the Lord's Day "carriage in the Church" gift giving and commerce. As the 1835 preface tells us "Petrie who has been facetiously called the Scottish Chesterfield is generally understood to have begun life as a domestic tutor in the family of Sinclair of Stevenstoun and to have ended it as a parish schoolmaster in East Lothian. His 'Rules of Good Deportment' may be taken as the result of his artless observations upon the manners of a class of society to which he was probably admitted only as a humble spectator. From the manifest sincerity however of his delineations of 'Good Breeding' and the graphic character of many of his scenes it may fairly be presumed that they were painted from nature--and they present probably less of a caricature of Scottish manners early in the 18th century than might at first be imagined." It is known that Scott had begun but did not finish the project of reprinting this work for the Bannatyne Club and the frontispiece prepared for that edition is used here. Both the first edition of 1720 and this 1835 reprint are infrequently encountered on the market. unknown
