17321Paris. 26 April and 25 May 1856. Both in fair condition lightly aged and worn. ONE: He thanks him for offering to translate his book 'The Political Future of England' but considers his knowledge of English law too shaky to permit him to give any encouragement. He suggests that the recipient come to an arrangement with 'Mr. Abraham Hayward Queen's Counsel 1 King's Bench Walk Temple' who is acting for de Montalembert in the matter. Should the recipient's meetings with Hayward encourage him to undertake a translation of the book he will send him a copy of the third edition which contains 30 to 40 pages not present 'dans la traduction publiée par Murray'. TWO: He is sorry that the recipient could not come to terms with Hayward the impediments to an agreement being unclear to him. 'Mais mon éloignement de Londres mon ignorance des lois et des usages d'Angleterre sur la propriété littéraire' together with the disinterested devotion Hayward has shown him since the publication of the book compel him to entrust the matter to him 'sans reserve'. He again urges the recipient to apply to Hayward before thanking him for drawing an article in Blackwood's Magazine to his attention. He ends by giving his opinion that the recipient is correct in his appreciation of the article one in Frazer's Magazine being better. The original translation is said to have been by Henry Barrow. A new edition appeared later in 1856 with introduction and notes by John Wilson Croker. Paris. 26 April and 25 May 1856. unknown

87087London 1777. 8vo. 2 511; 2 354; 2 271 1 pp. Minor spotting. Half calf from mid 19th-century gilt spines. Three volumes. From the library of the Celsings at Biby mansion in Sweden. Part three lacks a preliminary leaf. Setterwall 3081. Warmholtz 6417a. Delarna ett och tvÃ¥ finns i olika tryckvarianter med varierande sidantal. Del ett har alternerade 511 sidor som här och tryckt i 8:o eller 640 i 12:o och del tvÃ¥ har som här 271 sidor i 8:o alternativt 779 sidor i 12:o! Första delen berör svensk historia och innehÃ¥ller brev och handlingar rörande svenska arméens operationer i Pommern 1757-58. Markis Marc-René de Montalembert 1714-1800 följde som fransk diplomat den svenska arméen under fälttÃ¥get och rapporterade hem till Frankrike. Warmholtz konstaterar att â€Om en och annan i Sverige kanske gerna sedt at Brefwäxlingen rörande Pommerska FälttÃ¥gen blifvit otrykt lärer dock icke kunna nekas at den uti wiktige Omständigheter gifver mycken uplysningâ€. Den andra delen behandlar ryska arméens operationer mot Preussen Ã¥ren 1759-60 medan den tredje delen behandlar ön Ollerens befästande 1761 där Montalembert var befälhavare. Montalembert är annars mest känd för sitt stora verk om fortifikation i 11 volymer publicerat i Paris 1776-96. Sveriges deltagande i SjuÃ¥rskriget brukar kallas det Pommerska kriget och varade mellan 1757 och 1762. Det gick ur svensk synpunkt inget vidare. Nils Palmstierna konstaterade i rÃ¥det att de svenska trupperna gick in i fiendernas land som rävar och ut som harar. The Celsing brothers Ulric and Gustaf were Swedish diplomats mostly in Constantinople and famous for their collection of Ottoman portraits and paintings. unknown
