[DANEMARK] Histoire de Dannemarc
Chez Barde, Manget & Compagnie • Chez Buisson|A Genève [Geneva] • & à Paris 1787|10.50 x 17.50 cm|9 volumes reliés
Third and best edition; it is indeed the most complete. Before composing this ensemble, several editions were published: in the first place an Introduction to the history of Dannemarc in 1755, which forms in our copy the first illustrated volume of a large folding map of Scandinavia. Two volumes in 4 will appear a few years later, then a third. The story was then continued until 1720, then until 1773 in this edition.
Full flamed calfskin bindings slightly posterior. Smooth backs decorated with 4 irons and wheels. Title and volume pieces in green calf. Misses in the head of volumes 5 and 7. Friction. 2 blunt corners. Nice copy.
The book is considered the best ancient history of Denm
