Sabin 4155. Palau, 25974. Edition originale de cette œuvre de vulgarisation, qui sera rééditée en 1813 et 1835. Son auteur, Alphonse de Beauchamp (1767-1832), signe là sa troisième publication, mais c’est pour lui un travail alimentaire, nécessaire pour subvenir à ses besoins. En effet, employé du Ministère de la Police, il s’est attiré les foudres du redoutable Fouché pour son Histoire de la Guerre de Vendée, parue en 1806. Le turbulent ministre de Napoléon fait saisir la troisième édition de l’ouvrage cette même année 1808, avant de révoquer son subalterne et de l’assigner à résidence (surveillée) aux Fossés. Arrêté de nouveau en 1809, Beauchamp est contraint de signer à la Préfecture de Police l’engagement de cesser ses écrits sur les Guerres de l’Ouest afin de recouvrer sa liberté. Prolifique essayiste et historien, il rédige une trentaine d’ouvrages durant le reste de sa carrière, et meurt du choléra en 1832.
