Published by Bachelier, 1819
First Edition
Couverture rigide. "Sur Robert Fulton | Bachelier | Paris 1819 | 13.5 x 21.5 cm | Relié | Edition originale illustrée, en frontispice, d'une planche dépliante gravée (cf Polak 6795. Manque à Sabin.) Reliure à la bradel en pleine basane vert bouteille, dos lisse orné de doubles filets dorés, date dorée en queue, couverture muette d'attente de papier rose conservée, reliure moderne. Une mouillure en pied des premiers feuillets et s'amenuisant au fil des pages. Unique édition, peu commune (l'édition supposée de 1814 est un fantôme bibliographique). * *La planche représente l'explosion, dans la rade de Walmer, du brick danois "La Dorothée". Cette expérience était l'oeuvre de Robert Fulton ; la plus grande partie de ce mémoire très rare est d'ailleurs consacrée aux recherches et découvertes du grand savant américain mort en 1815. Jacques-Philippe Mérigon de Montgéry (1782-1839), capitaine de frégate et membre du Conseil des travaux de la marine, participa à de nombreuses campagnes et batailles navales entre 1794 et 1827 (Irlande, Concarneau, Mers du Sud, La Spezia, Levant et Mer Noire, Sénégal, Guyane, Antilles, États-Unis, Angleterre). "Montgéry se passionna pour la navigation à vapeur et, en général, pour les études scientifiques et techniques () Membre du Conseil des travaux, il se rendit fréquemment dans les ports pour y étudier diverses questions techniques () Esprit extrêmement original, très lié avec Auguste Comte, Montgéry est l'auteur d'une oeuvre considérable dans laquelle il fait souvent preuve de vues prophétiques, très en avance sur les réalisations de son temps". Il rendit populaires en France les recherches de Robert Fulton sur les torpilles et les explosifs sous-marins" (Taillemite) . | [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION FOLLOWS] First and only edition, illustrated with a folding engraved frontispiece (see Polak 6795; not in Sabin). Bound in bottle-green full sheep, Bradel-style binding, smooth spine ruled in gilt with double fillets, gilt date at foot, original pink paper waiting cover preserved, modern binding. A waterstain affects the lower margin of the initial leaves, gradually fading throughout the volume. Unique and uncommon edition (the purported 1814 edition is a bibliographical ghost). * *The plate depicts the explosion, in the roadstead of Walmer, of the Danish brig "La Dorothée". This experiment was the work of Robert Fulton; indeed, most of this very rare memoir is dedicated to the research and discoveries of the great American scientist, who died in 1815. Jacques-Philippe Mérigon de Montgéry (17821839), frigate captain and member of the Naval Works Council, took part in numerous campaigns and naval battles between 1794 and 1827 (Ireland, Concarneau, South Seas, La Spezia, the Levant and Black Sea, Senegal, Guiana, the West Indies, the United States, England). "Montgéry developed a passionate interest in steam navigation and, more broadly, in scientific and technical studies () As a member of the Naval Works Council, he frequently visited ports to examine various technical matters () A highly original mind, closely connected with Auguste Comte, Montgéry produced a substantial body of work, often demonstrating prophetic insight far ahead of the achievements of his time." He helped popularize Robert Fulton's research in France on torpedoes and underwater explosives" (Taillemite)." in-8 ; [2] ff. n. ch. (faux-titre et titre), 78 pp., 2 pp. de catalogue de Bachelier, une planche dépliante gravée en guise de frontispice.
