An almost complete collection of this almanac, which appeared for eight years and enjoyed great success, partly due to the reputation of the author, known for his gastronomic eccentricities. An invaluable record of Parisian life, edible merchants and restaurateurs in the early 19th century. Without the last volume published in 1811. Vicaire, 424-427.
