Oktav, 20,5 cm (geringe Wurmspuren im Einband, leicht bestoßen, innen ganz frisch, gut erhalten). Band 1 der dreibändigen Reihe zur Geschichte (insgesamt 7 Bände) in einem dekorativen und luxuriösen Einband, gedruckt in der Imprimerie de Didot, rue Pavée. "Guillaume-François Debure (auch: de Bure; geb. 23. Februar 1732 in Paris; gest. 15. Juli 1782 ebenda) war ein französischer Buchhändler und Bibliograph. Bereits sein Großvater und sein Vater waren Buchhändler gewesen. (...) Nach langer Vorbereitung erschien sein systematisch geordnetes und bequem für Recherchezwecke eingerichtetes Hauptwerk 'Bibliographie instructive, ou traité de la connoissance des livres rares et singuliers' (7 Bde., Paris 1763 - 1768). (...) Debure hat durch dieses Werk zur Verbreitung bibliographischer Kenntnisse in Frankreich sehr viel beigetragen, und weder die Kritiken von Barthélemy Mercier de Saint-Léger (im Journal de Trévoux, Paris 1763) noch jene des Abbé Rive konnten sein Verdienst schmälern."

"This book has grown out of lectures delivered to the Haileybury Natural Science Society. From the nature of the case, therefore, it aims at being intelligible without the help of much preliminary knowledge. Some of the lectures, however, were delivered to a small number of the elder members of the society, and the subject matter of some of these was in itself rather difficult. My object has been, not to shirk difficult questions, to make them clear to anyone who will give his attention to the subject" - from the Preface. (Natural History, Evolution, Lectures, Natural…
