Sabin 24637 records only the 1870 French edition of his Conférence sur la guerre du Paraguay.

Modern half blue morocco binding, spine with four raised bands and gilt fleurons, some rubbing to the joints, marbled paper boards, marbled endpapers and pastedowns.

Minor worming at the beginning and end of the volume, not affecting the text, some foxing, ink stamp to the title page.

Brazil was a member of the "Triple Alliance", which pitted the Argentine Republic, His Majesty the Emperor of Brazil and the Oriental Republic of Uruguay against the government of Francisco Solano López (1827-1870), supreme ruler of Paraguay.

The Paraguayan War, fought between 1864 and 1870, was one of the bloodiest conflicts in South American history.
