Description
[ALGERIA]. MONT ROND (by). HISTORY OF THE CONQUEST OF ALGERIA FROM 1830 TO 1847. Paris: E. Marc-Aurel, 1847. Two volumes bound together as a single in-8½ volume in havana-coloured shagreen, ribbed spine, gilt title, cover boards preserved (later binding). Some foxing (pp. 225 to 248 of vol. 1 in particular), but the text block is generally fresh; small losses to the cover boards, which have been lined, underlining in blue pencil and old scholarly handwritten notes in the margins of the text. FIRST EDITION of this work written by a captain in the French army. The Capture of Algiers: military events presented year by year, etc. AN INTERESTING COPY containing numerous old notes by a probable eyewitness (soldier, officer?) who lived through the conquest of Algeria. ¶ Tailliart, 1726.
