(Rel. de l’époque) Titre, XII pp. (préface et table), 206 pp.Les lois et coutumes anglaises expliquées aux étrangers qui s’aventurent ou veulent s’établir en Albion et ne veulent courir aucun risque. L’auteur est un avocat et notaire royal établi Spencer Street à Clerkenwell (quartier d’Islington à Londres).“Je laisse à ceux qui en ont fait la triste expérience à décider combien de frais et de dépenses inutiles auraient pu empêcher la publication de cet écrit, si elle avait eu lieu plutôt” dit le royal notaire dans la préface. Il n’a pas voulu publier son livre en anglais, sachant qu’il serait critiqué par les gens de sa profession qui ne lui pardonneront pas “d’avoir révélé des choses qu’ils ont intérêt à tenir cachées”. Exemplaire avec des NOTES AUTOGRAPHES de l’auteur indiquant son adresse, précisant qu’il parle français, qu’il fait procurations, certificats et contrats de mariage.Ce guide juridique pour immigrés, paru sous Napoléon, est un document très intéressant. Il semble très rare.

FIRST EDITION AND A VERY PLEASING SET ESPECIALLY WELL PRESERVED. The author notes that this is the first book to be produced which addresses itself to the Old Inns and their story. The author took great delight in planning the work and executing it over a ten year period. He addresses himself to the last of the London Inns most of which were long gone by the time the work was published.

A very pleasing and fascinating look at a world partially gone by. Chapmand & Hall, Limited hardcover
1695565London: Printed for J. Wickins; and to be sold by the Booksellers of London and Westminster 1695. FIRST EDITION. Hardcover. Very good. Octavo. COLLATION: A-B4 C-F8 G-Q4 COMPLETE. 2 19-176 pp. Attractive half calf antique marbled boards red morocco label gilt compartments gilt with small tools. ¶ FIRST EDITION of this important collection of Parliamentary debates providing original and valuable documentation of the constitutional crisis that ensued during the Glorious Revolution of 1688. James II of England a.k.a. James VII of Scotland while fleeing to France dropped the Great Seal of the Realm into the Thames. In Parliament the question was discussed whether he had forfeited the throne or had abdicated. The present volume offers detailed arguments for the both but ultimately the latter designation was agreed upon and in a full assembly of the Lords and Commons it was resolved in spite of James's protest "that King James II having endeavored to subvert the constitution of the kingdom by breaking the original contract between king and people and by the advice of Jesuits and other wicked persons having violated the fundamental laws and having withdrawn himself out of this kingdom has abdicated the government and that the throne is thereby vacant." The Scottish parliament pronounced a decree of forfeiture and deposition. ¶ In our copy the imprint reads "and to be sold" in another issue the imprint reads "and sold". ¶ References: Wing 2nd ed.

In folio (54.4 x 64.3 cm il foglio); esemplare in fine coloritura coeva ed in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Testo in tedesco e francese in cartiglio posto ai lati della carta. Cartiglio con titolo al margine basso dello stampa. Magnifica e vivida tiratura di questa celeberrima carta del territorio delle coste francesi e meridionali inglesi che illustra il percorso delle flotte inglesi e francesi che si sarebbero poi scontrare nella celeberrima battaglia, avvenuta durante la Guerra dei Sette Anni, nella Baia di Quiberon il 20 novembre del 1759, battaglia che è rappresentata appunto nel lato sinistro della carta. Lo scontro fra le flotte francese ed inglese si svolse presso la baia di Quiberon, vicino a Saint-Nazaire, di fronte al Golfo di Morbihan. La flotta francese era comandata dall'ammiraglio Hubert de Brienne, conte di Conflans e quella britannica, dall'ammiraglio Edward Hawke. La battaglia terminò con una netta vittoria della squadra navale britannica. "La potenza della flotta francese fu fortemente compromessa e non si riprese prima della fine della guerra; nelle parole di Alfred Thayer Mahan (L'influenza del potere navale nella storia), la battaglia del 20 novembre 1759 «…fu la Trafalgar di quella guerra […] la flotta inglese era ora in grado dii agire contro le colonie della Francia e più tardi di quelle della Spagna, su scala molto maggiore che mai prima.» Per esempio la Francia non poteva approfittare della sua vittoria di Sainte-Foy del 1760, nella terra che è oggi il Canada, poiché là necessitava di rifornimenti e rinforzi dalla Francia, e così la battaglia della baia di Quiberon può essere vista come l'evento che determinò il destino della Nuova Francia e quindi del Canada". La carta fu stampata dal successore e cognato del grande cartografo Matthaus Seutter (sposò una delle figlie di Seutter), il cartografo, editore ed incisore Tobias Conrad Lotter (1717 - 1777). Lotter, si formò alla bottega di Matthaus Seutter per il quale lavorò. Alla morte di Seutter ne rilevò l’attività che portò avanti fino al 1777 anno della sua morte. L’attività passo poi al figlio, Matthias Albrecht Lotter. Tobias Conrad fu uno dei più apprezzati cartografi del settecento. Il disegnatore della carta in questione è il cartografo Christian Friederich van der Heyden Lotter, l’incisore è Matthew Albrecht. Esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione ed in bella coloritura coeva.
