Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Second Edition. First Boston Edition, after an earlier one from Philadelphia. Translated from the French by Philip Freneau. Remarkably an untrimmed copy, bound in 19th c. half morocco and marbled boards.

8vo., (7 6/8 x 5 inches). Woodcut printers device on title-page (three small holes affecting the letterpress, tipped-in on a new stub), woodcut head- and tail-pieces. Modern tan morocco backed linen boards. First edition. Abbe Robin was a chaplain with Rochambeau's army, having arrived in Boston with the Comte de Barras in May of 1781. This is his account of the pivotal southern campaigns of Rochambeau and Washington, who had joined forces in June to march on Yorktown and then Chesapeake Bay. "The battle was a classical eighteenth-century operation, and no one was better fit to conduct it than Rochambeau, the veteran of more than a dozen European campaigns. His skills in handling people also contributed to military success by inducing the impulsive and independent de Grasse to cooperate fully, by minimizing Franco-American friction, and by ensuring a continuous flow of essential supplies. The inexorable advance of the allied lines reflected Rochambeau's expertise and personality. When the inevitable capitulation occurred, Cornwallis's representative, General Charles O'Hara, tried to surrender the British commander's sword to Rochambeau who, characteristically, referred him to Washington" (Samuel F. Scott for ADNB). Howes R-361; Sabin 72032. Catalogued by Kate Hunter.

Copley: "While institutional in scope and significance, the manuscripts and books in the Library clearly reflect the discernment of a passionate collector and equally passionate patriot. The birth, survival, and expansion of the United States is brilliantly documented in the writings of the men and women who founded and protected our nation. It would be wrong to think of the Copley Library as exclusively American, however. As a reader and a newspaperman, Mr. Copley had wide and eclectic interests, which also provided themes for the collection. Letters and manuscripts from authors, scientists, and musicians as diverse as Charlotte Brontë, Albert Einstein, and Tchaikovsky also found a place in the Library" (David Redden, Sotheby's).

8vo, 20.1cm, The First Edition, ix,[1],222p., in contemporary full tree calf, gilt panel borders and decorations on the spine, crushed crimson morocco label, marbled endpapers, a fine clean copy. (cgc). Howes R-361. Sabin 72032. Monaghan 1241. vide JCB II:2810 and Gephart II:14314. A rather ingenious and naive look at the country by one who was attached to Rochambeau's army, as the chaplain, during the American Revolution. This is a sentimental account of Rochambeau's aid to the Americans against the British enemy, and his contribution in assuring victory. Monaghan offers credible proof that this writer and the scholar Claude C. Robin, with whom this author is often confused, are different people, despite the cataloguing in Sabin and the BM.
