About This Item
Auxerrre: L. Fournier, [ 1794, 1795 ]. First edition. 3/4 morocco. Fine. Octavo, 12pp., modern red morocco, marbled boards, extra-gilt spine, raised bands, partially unopened.
Mailhe was the first deputy to vote in favor of deposing King Louis XVI. The "Mailhe Amendment" however, at the trial of the King, attempted to delay his execution. This occurred after Mailhe's committee had determined that the constitutional inviolability of the king was a gift of the people, and, thus, could be revoked by the people.

About Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
