Description
FIRST AND ONLY edition of this important late 18th-century first-hand account of life as an exile in French Guyana. ONE OF ONLY FOUR NUMBERED COPIES PRINTED ON FINE IMPERIAL JAPAN PAPER (another 5 copies were printed on Dutch laid paper). Such large-paper copies are highly desirable since the regular edition was printed on cheap woodpulp paper which is now crumbling into dust. [4], 383 pp. 8vo. Attractively bound in quarter calf and marbled boards, spine gilt. Minimal wear to edges of boards, else a fine and uncut copy. Extremely rare in this state.
