A little slice of history - published when Napoleon had only been emperor for a year and the United States had been independent for a mere 29 years, "Memoire sur les relations commerciales des Etats-Unis avec l'Angleterre / par le Citoyen TALLEYRAND lu a l'Institut national, le 15 germinal, an 5 ; suivi d'un essai sur les avantages a retirer de colonies nouvelles dans les circonstances presentes / par le meme auteur, lu a l'Institut, le 15 messidor, an 5" (Memoir on the commercial relations of the United States with England by the Citizen Talleyrand Read at the National Institute, the 15th Germinal, in the year V. To Which is Added an Essay Upon the Advantages to Be Derived from New Colonies in the Existing Circumstances) published in London by W Spilsbury in 1805. Some foxing to endpages, damage to spine, a note that Jane Austen was still alive on the frontispiece, all pages intact. A fascinating work
