1768G0469Genève, S.e. (Frères Cramer), 1768 ; in-4, 2-608 pp. + 2 frontispices, relié demi-veau naturel, à coins, dos orné à 4 légers nerfs, pièces de titre coloris bordeaux (une petite mouillure, quelques rousseurs). François-Marie Arouet, dit Voltaire, philosophe et homme de lettres du XVIIIème siècle, symbole des Lumières, incarna à lui seul l'intellectuel engagé et la puissance de l’opinion publique. Eduqué par les jésuites, Voltaire se fit remarquer en rhétorique et par sa capacité à versifier. Il prit très tôt le contrepied de cette éducation et s'orienta vers la société des libertins, brilla dans les salons plaisantant même sur la relation du Régent et de sa fille, ce qui lui valut 11 mois de Bastille. Très vite, Voltaire obtint le succès littéraire avec la Henriade. Suite à l'affaire Rohan-Chabot, il fut à nouveau embastillé, mais très vite libéré à condition qu'il s'exilât. Voltaire partit alors pour l'Angleterre, fit la connaissance d'Emilie Du Châtelet et fut reçu à la cour de Lunéville. Rentré ensuite à Paris, il quitta rapidement la ville pour visiter Frédéric II à Berlin puis s’installa à Ferney près de Genève. Peu d'écrivains furent aussi prolifiques que Voltaire. Illustrations en frontispice (gravure taille-douce au burin)des portraits de Charles XII, roi de Suède (peint par de la Tour, gravé par Cathelin) et de Pierre le Grand (dessiné et gravé par Aug. de St-Aubin en 1770). Bon état.

First editions of these coast pilot guides to Arctic waters during and after World War I issued about the time of the Russian Revolution and offered key navigational guides for Naval forces during the ill-fated White Russia Revolution and over 13000 troops in the Polar Bear Expedition. Prior to modern GPS systems and satellite navigation these regularly updated and revised navigation handbooks provided key sailing instructions often drawing not only from Russian & British sources but also sailing reports from U.S. Navy vessels and those from merchant ships. The two maps serve as indexes to sailing charts to be ordered from the Hydrographic Office and keyed to sailing instructions within the coast pilots.
