LEROY (Paul Marie) - Lot 235

LEROY (Paul Marie) Mémoire sur les Travaux qui ont rapport à l'Exploitation de la Mâture dans les Pyrénées (sic). Presentation by J. Labarère (followed by) Réfutation d'un Mémoire... sur les Travaux... Encausse, l'Adret, 1988 "Textes Pyrénéens". In-8; 12 fold-out plates. Edition of 370 copies plus a few reserved for contributors (Jacques Labarère's H.C. copy). Scattered with a few bills and correspondence. Bradel-style long-grain red morocco, gilt title on front cover and spine, publisher's cover retained. Facsimile of the 1776 edition and its 1778 Réfutation, the interest of its preface and the reunion of the 2 treatises will outweigh the mediocrity of the realization.
