1882 King Louis XII of France Anne of Brittany Color Illustrated French BINDING

Paul Lacroix was a 19th-century French author whose books covered a broad set of topics, including some controversial. Lacroix wrote about ballets, costumes, romance, masquerades, heraldry, religion in the military, and the history of prostitution. One of his best books was "Louis XII et Anne de Bretagne", a history of early 16th-century France and the reuniting of Brittany and France.
While the contents of this and other Lacroix works are fascinating, it is the exquisite binding and color illustrations that make this book so desirable. It contains more than 200 illustrations in addition to the 14 chromolithograph engravings!

1836 AFRICA 1ed Lander Niger River Exploration Illustrated Maps Slavery

Richard Lander was an English explorer who made his name for his voyages into Africa. After nearly a decade of African voyages, the British government sent Richard and his brother John in 1830 to explore the Niger River. While at the river delta, they were captured by local tribes for a short time. Their voyage did yield grand results – they discovered the Niger River course and outlets.
The specifics of the journey were written and published under various titles, including 'The Travels of Richard and John Lander'. This work is a fascinating account of African culture, geography, and 19th-century exploration. This 1836 first edition includes nine fine, full-page engravings, including maps and views of local tribes.
