A Paris, Chez Herissant fils, 1766. 2 volumes. xii, (4), 528 pp.; (8), 530, (2, errata) pp. 8vo. Contemporary half calf, spine with raised bands, contrasting labels with gilt lettering, marbled boards, corners, red edges, slightly worn. Conlon 66:949 (under Hérissant); Kress S.4454; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi; not in Higgs. First edition. Interesting collection dealing principally with numerous cities and villages (such as Annonay, Avalon, Avesnes, Bourg de Charenton, Mantes, Milly-en-Gatinois, Montargis, etc., etc., their history, culture, natural history, wine production, etc.) and important persons in the kingdom of France. According to the 'Avertissement', the work is based on material not used in the 1768-1778 edition of Lelong's Bibliothèque Historique, also published by Hérissant. Much material for that work was obtained through correspondance with 'des sociétés savantes' but Lelong did not use all of it. Quérard lists the work under Fevret de Fontette.
