35601105, Paris, Guillaumin, 1840; in-8, demi-veau fauve, tranches jasp.(Rel. de l’ép.). 2 ff., 446 pp., 1f.- EDITION ORIGINALE. Livre rare. L’auteur, natif de Paris en 1801, un normalien qui se vit fermer la carrière universitaire parce que trop indépendant, émigra à Guernesey où il enseigna au collège Elisabeth. Il revint en France après la Révolution de 1830 et se lança dans le journalisme au Courrier français, à la Tribune, au Temps, au Constitutionnel, etc. Les gendarmes et les voleurs semblaient l’inspirer, car on lui doit des ouvrages sur Vidocq, Cartouche. Ici il étudie les anciennes prisons de la Seine et leur administration, le dépôt de la Préfecture, Clichy prison pour dettes, Sainte-Pélagie, maison d’arrêt et de correction, prison d’Etat sous l’Empire, la Conciergerie, Bicêtre, La Force, les prisons d’Etat modernes, le Temple et Vincennes. Nombreux documents inédits. Bel exemplaire, provenant de la bibliothèque de N. FAULQUIER qui fut président du tribunal de Clamecy (Nièvre) vers 1850.(Initiales manuscrites sur la garde).
