Frédéric, Baron de Trenck, né en 1726, intègre l'armée prussienne en 17…42. Intrépide et aventurier, il séduit la princesse Amélie, soeur du roi Frédéric II, mais ce dernier, mis au fait, l'enferme dans la forteresse de Glatz d'où notre héros s'échappe en 1746 pour entrer au service de la Russie. A la mort de son cousin François en 1749, Frédéric retourne en Allemagne pour s'occuper de son héritage. Arrêté de nouveau par Frédéric II il est confiné pendant dix ans à Magdebourg, chargé de 68 livres de chaînes. On le retrouvera plus tard à Paris en 1791. Dénoncé comme espion autrichien, il finira sur l'échafaud le 25 juillet 1794. Bel exemplaire ( Photographies sur demande / We can send pictures of this book on simple request ).

in-8, 30 pp., en feuilles, cousu. L'attribution au baron de Trenck (1726-1794) est reprise de Barbier II, 831 dans la notice qu'il consacre à L'Histoire secrète de la Cour de Berlin, et à ses réfutations ; mais la citation qu'il donne de notre titre montre qu'il n'a pas vu l'opuscule et le rapporte de seconde main. De fait, il s…'agit ici d'une critique plaisante des allégations contenues dans l'ouvrage de Mirabeau. - - VENTE PAR CORRESPONDANCE UNIQUEMENT - LIEN DE PAIEMENT, NOUS CONSULTER.
