Royal Octavo. *NOTES: Captain Dorset Fellowes (named after being born on HMS Dorsetshire) 1769-1852 , as he appears in court-related press reports, was clearly an able and experienced seaman, surviving one serious sinking off Newfoundland, and one of a diversely talented family of sailors. This account of the near 1000 miles travelled through the northern French country made just after Waterloo describing the fortunes of families and scenery in the region of Bocage and Normandy in and around the places of the Vendean War just before Waterloo, the paragraphs and passages on the graves of Marshall Ney and Labédoyére and their desecration, the countryside is also well described in a leisurely manner.

Description de la boutique

We are a small, single-owner business. We have been operating on and off since 1977 and our stock is varied, leaning towards antiquarian and 19th century with the addition of original aquatint and lithographic, or woodcut engravings. Also maps and Ephemera - in fact, anything interesting on paper really. We have in stock every item we list. We do not use stock photographs, but photograph each item individually. We very rarely use "fine" or "mint" as a description, mainly due to the age and the fact that 99.9% of what we sell has been pre-owned and therefor Fine would not be a term for a book we sell despite its fine-like appearance. We always take items back unreservedly if not in the condition as described. We always try to describe fully.…
