1778FB106 (1 to 5) /8J Rivington 1778. Fine. 15 23 3.5. Full tree calf with black title plates gilt decoration banding and lettering on the spine.volumes. I II III IV and V. Stunning binding.Sully left a collection of memoirs Mémoires otherwise known as the Économies royales 1638 written in the second person very valuable for the history of the time and as an autobiography in spite of the fact that they contain many fictions such as a mission undertaken by Sully to Queen Elizabeth I of England in 1601.<strong>Maximilien de Béthune 1st Duke of Sully Marquis of Rosny and Nogent Count of Muret and Villebon Viscount of Meaux</strong> 13 December 1560 – 22 December 1641 was a nobleman soldier statesman and counselor of King Henry IV of France. Historians emphasize Sully's role in building a strong centralized administrative system in France using coercion and highly effective new administrative techniques. While not all of his policies were original he used them well to revitalize France after the European Religious Wars. Most however were repealed by later monarchs who preferred absolute power. Historians have also studied his Neostoicism and his ideas about virtue prudence and discipline. J Rivington unknown

1819064053Edinburgh: Sirling and Slade; Archibald Constable and Company 1819. Hardcover. Very Good -. This 5 volume set published in 1819 is a translation of Sully's memoirs which were originally published in 1638 largely overseen by the Duke of Sully himself. This set represents the first English translation to include an appendix. Sully was a close counselor to Henry IV of France. "Historians emphasize Sully's role in building a strong centralized administrative system in France using coercion and highly effective new administrative techniques. While not all of his policies were original he used them well to revitalize France after the European Religious Wars." Taken from Wikipedia. All five volumes are in essentially the same condition. Worn and rubbed covers with a rectangular blindstamp design. Each volume contains an illustrated frontispiece. Front and back hinges starting though intact. Heads and tails are all mildly or moderately chipped. All volumes are free from writing or marginalia within. There is a library bookplate on the inside cover of each volume as well as some type of leather library label or sticker near the tail foot. Each spine shows the ghost of what used to be leather title and volume labels. On Volume 4 about half of that label remains. Each volume approximately 500 pages with volumes 1-4 containing a volume-specific appendix at back and volume 5 containing no appendix but rather a massive index which is applied to all 5 volumes. Volume 5 also contains "The Trial of Francis Ravaillac For The Murder of King Henry IV 1610." Overall this set is in very good condition for it's age. Due to this book's size and/or weight additional shipping charges may be needed especially for international orders. Full refund if not satisfied.
