He wrote it for the education of the little grandson of Louis XIV, and his veiled criticisms of absolutism earned him disgrace. It was one of the most read books in Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries. This edition by the Paris bookseller Lefèvre, carefully prepared and printed on fine paper, is enriched with geographical and literary notes. Uniform bindings of the Romantic era in pale calf, smooth backs adorned with volutes and gilded borders and blind-stamped fleurons, with gilt titles.
