Protestantism - Béarn - Basque Country DUBARAT (Victor Pierre) canon Le Protestantisme en Béarn et au Pays-Basque ou Observations critiques sur l'Histoire de l'Église Réformée d'Osse de M. le Pasteur CADIER. Pau, Vignancour, S. Dufau, 1895. In-8: VIII, 1f. (portrait), from p. 5 to 482; one full-page figure in the text and 2 small portraits. Scattered spotting. Old Franciscan library stamps. ½ caramel chagrin, ornate spine, publisher's putty cover preserved. DUBARAT could not allow this Protestant interference in "his" local history to go unnoticed: "One must know, when the occasion arises, how to defend the outraged or misunderstood truth, and pour out for it, if need be, with the help of above, every last drop of one's blood" (Barbe 278).
