JOHANNOT, appendice, table des matières, EX-LIBRIS en vert et jaune de l'historien François FURET collé sur la première garde ainsi que son cachet violet sur la première blance, Pierre-Michel-François Chevalier dit « Pitre-Chevalier » est un auteur, historien et journaliste français né le 16 novembre 1812 à Paimbœuf (Loire-Inférieure) et mort à Paris le 15 juin 1863. Il a été rédacteur en chef du Figaro et directeur du Musée des familles. Comme le titre l'indique bien, ce livre est l'histoire de cette partie de la France restée loyaliste et combattant la Révolution et l'Empire. Très bon document avec de très nombreuses références pour bien comprendre cette période dans ces régions de l'Ouest. Ce livre faisait partie de la bibliothèque personnelle de François Furet, avec son ex-libris. François Furet, né le 27 mars 1927 à Paris, mort à Figeac le 12 juillet 1997, est un historien français, spécialiste de la Révolution française et de son héritage idéologique. Il appartenait à une génération d'intellectuels cherchant dans les faits les raisons de la faillite du projet marxiste. Pas courant en Edition Originale. Très bon état de la reliure; comme dans tous les exemplaires présence de rousseurs mais épargnant des planches couleurs.

185229962np: F. Ferguson Printer 1852. Broadside 5" x 13". Light spotting and wear two short closed margin tears. Good.<br/><br/> This pro-Temperance broadside rebuts the canard that the Sons of Temperance are the prime force behind enactment of the Maine Liquor Law. "Men of all denominations and parties are firm supporters of this law; look everywhere and you find it depends not alone upon the Sons of Temperance." The broadside also denies "that this law makes the man who buys liquor a criminal. An absolute falsehood-- not one word of truth in it." Opponents of the law are "lying." Indeed "DROWNING MEN CATCH AT STRAWS. BUT THE HAND-WRITING IS UPON THE WALL. A Prohibitory Liquor Law must and will be enacted."<br/>Not located on OCLC or the AAS web site or in Williamson or Sabin.
