1797AQ33559London: Printed for T.N. Longman 1797. 56pp. Modern brown paper boards red morocco lettering-piece. Title page a trifle browned otherwise internally clean and crisp. The first edition of a pamphlet decrying the French Republic by counter-revolutionary reformer Jacques Mallet du Pan 1749-1800. A Genevan political journalist Mallet du Pan became a staunch Royalist after the outbreak of the French Revolution with his anti-revolutionary polemic leading the opposition to brand him an 'enemy of liberty'. In 1792 he was sent to entreat with the Emperor of Austria and King of Prussia in other hopes of convincing the rulers to support the troubled monarchy whilst absent his possessions were confiscated and he was thereafter unable to return to Paris. In 1793 whilst residing with the Archduke Charles in Brussels he published the notorious Considérations sur la nature de la Révolution de France et sur les causes qui en prolongent la durée 1793 in which he asserted that the weakness of the French had disgraced the entirety of Europe. The initial advertisement of Letter to a Minister encourages the reader to use this volume in preparation 'for a due exercise of pure British judgment and for a proper display of true British spirit'.

18003706045London: De l'Imprimerie de W. et C. Spilsbury 1800. Five volumes octavo; a very attractive set in contemporary full tree calf spines gilt with double coloured labels. <p><p>Printed in London for a continental audience Mercure Britannique presents a range of political essays reports and despatches reporting on affairs unfolding in Europe during a period of unprecedented change.</p> <p>The closing years of the eighteenth century saw the consolidation of Napoleon's political power and militarisation of the French Republic. The author Jacques Mallet du Pan was vigorously opposed to the revolution in France and wrote from the relative safety of Switzerland using a London publisher to print his material for continental distribution indeed the imprint boasts that these volumes were available in Hamburg Vienna Berlin Leipzig and Venice. Mallet du Pan championed the cause of émigrés and courted the conservative anti-revolutionary governments of continental Europe. As both a Royalist and champion of the aristocracy he idealised the British constitution as a preferred model for the future of Europe. Accordingly much of the Mercure Britannique is concerned with developments in the British political scene.</p> <p>Of particular military interest is the detailed examination of the Napoleonic Egyptian campaign including a public letter by Nelson followed by a list of British ships in the line Battle of the Nile. Likewise the extent of the Russian empire is probed with a view to expansion prescient given the future course of the war.</p> </p> . De l'Imprimerie de W., et C. Spilsbury unknown
