Attractive little guidebook to Paris and its monuments. Albert-Etienne Montemont was born on August 20 1788 in Rupt-sur-Moselle the son of Jean-Joseph Montemont a forest ranger and Agnes Joly.

In 1805 he joined the administration of combined duties and held various positions until 1815 in Epinal then Valence Gap Italy and again in Gap. A fervent Bonapartist he then chose to devote himself to literature; he spent time in England as a tutor and traveled to various European countries. He wrote translations tourist guides travelogues and poetry. Initiated into Freemasonry during the Empire he joined the revolutionary lodge Les Amis de la Verite in Paris in 1821 but after the Fieschi assassination attempt in 1836 he affiliated himself with the Grande Loge Centrale de Paris. He was behind the Vosges banquets in Paris in 1818. In 1830 he returned to a civil service position at the Ministry of Finance as head of the office responsible for statistical work. Albert Montemont's application to the Royal Society of Sciences of Nancy was registered on March 15 1821. Caumont was responsible for the report which he made on June 21 1821 after Montemont renewed his application and sent his new work a Voyage en Italie. Subsequently Albert Montemont who was a prolific writer proved to be a very assiduous correspondent: the works he sent are mentioned 28 times in the Table de Favier!
