FIRST EDITION. 4to, 283 x 218 mms., pp. xi [xii contents, xiii first part, xiv blank], 110 [111 Errata, 112 blank, 113 - 116 index], handsomely bound in full red straight-grain morroco, gilt roll borders on cover, with two borders in blind, and a central modified lozenge in each panel, spine richly gilt, all edges gilt, blue silk end-papers; additional plain end-papers slightly foxed, some very slight wear to joints, but a very, very good to find copy. This first scientific report on crime in France was prepared by the Count de Peyronnet (1778-1854), who ountersigned the ordinances that provoked the July Revolution of 1830 and put an end to the regime. The minister reports thus on the administration of justice during the reign of Charlex X of France (1757 - 1836).
