113-DUVAL (Georges). Souvenirs of the Terror, from 1788 to 1793. Preceded by a historical introduction by M. Charles Nodier. Paris, Werdet, 1841-1842, 4 vols. in-8, midnight blue half-calf, spine ribbed and decorated with gilt roulettes (period binding). First edition. Fierro, 500. "Duval recounts in his memoirs the excesses of the Terror, then the political turnaround after Thermidor. Employed at the Ministry of the Interior, author of numerous successful plays, Duval's recollections are too literary to be very trustworthy, but they are not without interest if used with care." Complete with Charles Nodier's letter to Georges Duval in the foreword. A good copy. Ex-libris Bibliothèque du château d'Oplieux. Some foxing.
