Description:
Soft cover. Fine. The decree had the effect of law on the Swedish island of Saint Barthélemy, also known as St. Barts, located in the French Caribbean near St. Martin and Anguilla. 8vo. Original self cover. 7 pages. Text in Swedish. Sweden purchased the West Indies island of St. Barts from France in 1784, in exchange for trade rights in the Swedish port city of Gothenburg. The island was sold back to France in 1878, making it the longest held overseas possession in the Swedens history. St. Barts was also the only overseas possession ever held by Sweden for more than twenty years. The legacy of Swedish ownership can be seen in the names of many of the streets and the town (in honor of King Gustav III) and the presence of Swedens national arms, the Three Crowns, in the islands coat of arms along with the Maltese cross, the Fleur-de-lis, the mural crown, two pelicans, as well as the islands supposed Amerindian name of Ouanalao.

Description:
Bruxelles, Melines, Cans... 1854. This is the official French version of the history of the Italians (Beaumont-Vassy does not admit to an Italy) from 1815 to 1850. In his version, the Congress of Vienna served to establish Austrian dominance in the Italian states. Austrian misrule resulted in dangerous unrest among Italians, which resulted in an unfortunate revolution. Fortunately, the French Army at Rome suppressed the irresponsible brigands led by Garibaldi, and the future, under benign French supervision, will restore tranquility to the peninsula. This copy is from the library of Nicholas Brown, Minister of the United States to Rome in 1848-50, whose sympathies were with Italian republicans. Hard Cover. 2 p.l., 292 pages, leather spine, very good copy. Stock#OB383.
