A remarkable bibliophile edition limited to 50 copies of financial accounts and other documents concerning hunting and falconry from the archives of King Charles VIII of France in the years 1485 to 1486. These documents are essential primary sources for the history of hunting and falconry giving detailed and very specific data to throw light on falconry ca. 1485/86. The text was prepared in conjunction with a publication about Margaret of Austria 1480-1530 Duchess of Savoy and Quinsonas 1818-1901 wrote a brief introductory chapter to the present book "Documents pour servir a l'histoire de Marguerite d'Autriche". The chromolithographs show details from two stained-glass portraits of her one of her husband Philibert and a view of her "tower" in his chateau in Pont d'Ain. The etchings show Pont d'Ain and Louis XIII's chateau at Poncin. Although the title-page names no compiler and the imprint names only the printer Quinsonas's arms appear on the title-page and front wrapper. He was clearly the motive force behind the publication using the services of the printer Louis Perrin who pioneered historically allusive book design.With a presentation inscription from the compiler Comte de Quinsonas to K Mr Louis de Mas-Latrie 1815-1897 historian and palaeographer on the front wrapper. With offsetting of the chromolithographs in spite of the tissue guards bound in to prevent it the ribbon marker has left a browned shadow in the gutter margin between 2 pages and the margins of the wrappers have faded to grey-brown but otherwise in very good condition.l Schwerdt p. 119; Thiébaud col. 763.
