Paris, Flammarion 1973. In-8 broché de 459 pages. Bon état
6 yearly issues, (1799, 8pp; 1800, 8pp; 1801, 8pp; 1802, 8pp; 1806, 12pp; 1808, 12pp.), stitched as issued, browning and spotting as a result of the rather poor quality paper, corners worn with some loss but not to text, one or two small tears (the 1802 issue rather more so). By their very nature, these ephemeral almanacs are very rare; they were intended for issue within the year of printing and then to be thrown away. Printed on poor quality paper, they are susceptible to browning and general wear as is the case with these. Contents include: Geographical description of the world; dimensions of Scotland, England, and Ireland; a very useful table for calculating servants' wages, etc.

Paris, Augustin Challamel Editeur, 1908 [Les Plantes Oléiféres de l'Afrique Occidentale Française]. 4to. mayor; 206 pp., con 46 ilustraciones fotográficas entre el texto, 17 tablas estadísticas y dos mapas plegados, uno del Senegal y el otro de la Región Senegal-Sudán, en láminas aparte e impresos en color. Cubiertas originales salvadas en media tela. En la segunda mitad del Siglo XIX la economía del Senegal sufrió una dramática transformación. El cacahuete [peanut] reemplazó a los esclavos y a la goma y se convirtió en la materia exclusiva de la exportación, pasando de una tonelada en 1840 a las 5000 toneladas en 1850, y de 34.000 toneladas en 1880 a las 95.000 toneladas de 1898, todo ello como fruto del incesante incremento de la demanda europea de grasas y aceites. El coste social corrió en paralelo, como es lógico. No solo en Senegal sino en el Sudan.
