HISTORY] BLAIR (John), Chantreau (Pierre Nicolas) (trans.)] Chronological Tables of Universal History by John Blair, Paris, Henri Agasse, 1795 One quarto volume in full calfskin, with roulette-engraved framing on the covers, a plain but richly decorated spine; unpaginated, with an alphabetical index and two biographical tables. Chronological Tables covering all periods of world history, year by year, from the creation of the world to the year one thousand seven hundred and sixty-eight; Published in English by John Blair, and translated into French by Citizen Chantreau, who continued them up to the Peace concluded with Spain in 1795; with two annotated entries, containing several interesting chronological series not found elsewhere. This work may usefully supplement *The Art of Verifying Dates*, in that it is less voluminous and covers a longer period of time, from before our Era to the present day. Scratches on the binding. Corners worn. Interior in good condition.
