in-12 de XII et 164 pages. Intérieur frais. Veau granité, dos à nerfs orné de fleurons dorés, armes dorées sur les plats. Reliure de l'époque. (fines et habiles restaurations). François-Michel Le Tellier(1641-1691), marquis de Louvois est l'un des hommes d'État les plus importants du règne de Louis XIV. D'abord secrétaire d'État à la Guerre puis Surintendant des Bâtiments du roi en 1677, son ascension professionnelle est remarquable. Dans Le siècle de Louis XIV, Voltaire écrit à propos de Louvois : "Il fut plus estimé qu'aimé du roi, de la cour et du public [.].". Succédant à Colbert, sa nomination à la tête de la surintendance des Bâtiments du Roi le 6 septembre 1683 donne à Louvois l'occasion de satisfaire son goût pour les bâtiments et les jardins. Il lance de grands chantiers emblématiques : le Grand Commun, l'agrandissement des Petites et Grandes Ecuries, les ailes du Nord et du Midi, la Grande Galerie, l'Appartement du Roi, le cabinet des Médailles, l'Orangerie et le Trianon de Marbre. Unique édition de cette biographie. Son attribution demeure incertaine : Barbier propose Bolé de Chamlay ou Saint-Pouange, mais Camille Rousset, dans son Histoire de Louvois, réfute ces deux attributions. Précieux exemplaire aux armes de Louis-François Armand du Plessis de Vignerot, duc de Richelieu (1696-1788), petit neveu du cardinal de Richelieu, filleul de Louis XIV et de la duchesse de Bourgogne Marie-Adélaïde de Savoie, maréchal de France, célèbre pour sa vie mouvementée et ses aventures galantes.
