RIOUST. Carnot. Ghent, G. de Busscher et Fils, 1817. 2 parts - Lot 103
RIOUST. Carnot. Ghent, G. de Busscher et Fils, 1817. 2 parts in one vol. in-8° of [4], xvj, 294 pp; [4], 163 pp. Red half cloth Bradel style, blue morocco title page, gilt arms and date at foot. With the arms of the Carnot family. The second part concerns the lawsuit brought against Rioust for his Carnot, the first edition of which had been entirely seized, and the author sentenced to two years of imprisonment. It is a fervent plea in favor of Carnot who had just published his Mémoire au Roi. Smudging to the introduction, some foxing.
