014818Antoine Lavoisier, Instruction sur l'établissement des nitrières et sur la fabrication du salpêtre, publiée par ordre du Roi. par les Régisseurs généraux des Poudres & Salpêtres. Paris, Imprimerie Royale, 1777. In-4, [4]-83p & 4 planches dépliantes. Edition originale de la plus grande rareté sur la pyrotechnie. Il s'agissait donc de décrire la construction de nitrières artificielles. L'ouvrage est complet de ses 4 planches dépliantes signées Pierre Claude Delagardette. On remarquera que l'ouvrage fut réédité en 1794 (Paris, Cuchet), en pleine révolution, quand la production de poudre à canon devint essentielle puisque la poudre était alors majoritairement importée. L'ouvrage avait pour intention de « rectifier les vices essentiel qui régnaient dans l'art de fabriquer le Salpêtre » (préface de l'édition de Cuchet). Dès 1794, le volume est considéré comme rare : « mais comme ce travail se faisait avec un certain mystère, il est douteux que l'ont ait atteint le but que l'on s'était proposé ; il est même douteux que cette instruction ait été répandue : nous sommes d'autant plus porté à le crois, qu'elle est très-rare ; elle n'existait même pas dans la Bibliothèque nationale il y a quelques mois » (ib.). L'ouvrage est toutefois présent dans quelques bibliothèques publiques (BnF, Bordeaux, Grenoble). Nous n'avons trouvé la trace de cet ouvrage que dans deux catalogues du XIXe siècle : M. M.., vente Besançon, 12 janvier 1835 et jours suivants, n°227. « v.f., fil., d.s.t. ». Eugène de C., vente Paris, 7 novembre 1808 et jours suivants, n°700. « cart. à dos de v. ». Il est possible que notre exemplaire soit ce dernier. Notre exemplaire est aussi passé par la librairie Raymond Clavreuil. Il porte aussi deux notes de classement de bibliothèques (l'une cachée par l'étiquette de Clavreuil) et la trace d'un ex-libris décollé. Cartonnage demi-veau rouge, plats papier. Mouillure angulaire (avant le cartonnage actuel). Très rare document.

1888S14079Paris :: Germer Bailliere et cie Felix Alcan 1888. 1888. Large 8vo. VII 1 398 2 pp. Half-title frontispiece 9 plates. Early quarter red morocco raised bands elaborately gilt-stamped spine marbled boards with original printed wrappers bound in; rubbed. Very good. 265 The author states he based this work on numerous original documents saying that Lavoisier had "perfect order" and "kept all his manuscript without any exception all his notes." He sought to mark his private virtues his efforts in support of public affairs philanthropy his academic work as an economist farmer and financier details of his premature death by guillotine the tribunal etc. / "In September 1793 a law was passed ordering the arrest of all foreigners born in enemy countries and all their property to be confiscated. Lavoisier intervened on behalf of Lagrange who certainly fell under the terms of the law. On 8 May 1794 after a trial that lasted less than a day a revolutionary tribunal condemned Lavoisier and 27 others to death. Lagrange said on the death of Lavoisier who was guillotined on the afternoon of the day of his trial" – O'Connor J.J.; Robertson E.F. "Joseph-Louis Lagrange" 2006. / Louis Edouard Grimaux was a French chemist known for his research in the area of organic synthesis. He was the author of more than 120 scientific papers and books. This is the first in-depth published biography of Lavoisier. / 'First elements of manufacturing industry or Simple Notions on the Processes used to prepare the objects necessary for food housing clothing and the education of man work written according to the most modern treatises.'
