DESCRIPTION
In French.
Louis de Rouvroy (16 January 1675 – 2 March 1755) commonly known as Saint-Simon, was a French soldier, diplomatist and writer of memoirs. The dukedom-peerage granted to his father, Claude de Rouvroy (1608–1693), is a central fact in his history. He was an indefatigable writer, and he began very early to write down all the gossip he collected, all his interminable legal disputes of precedence, and a vast mass of unclassified matter.
CONDITION
In a quarter morocco binding with cloth covered boards. Externally, sound with shelfwear. Internally, firmly bound. Bright with scattered foxing to textblock edge and first and last few pages. Previous owner's ink stamped signature to front blank.
