303-PONS (Ange-Thomas-Zénon). Mémoires pour servir à l'histoire de la ville de Toulon, en 1793. Paris, C. J. Trouvé, 1825, in-8, XV-394 pp, portrait-frontispiece lithographed by Constans after Faget (Louis XVII), midnight blue half-maroquin, ribbed spine, arms at foot, gilt head (late 19th century binding). First edition. This accurate and detailed account of the Toulon revolt is based on a set of official documents made available to Pons by a deliberation of the Toulon town council. The work was printed at the city's expense, and has become a rare item. The author's aim is to qualify the reproach of treason levelled at the Toulon people, and to take account of local political vengeance when the port was retaken by the Republican armies. A fine copy bearing the arms of the Marquis Des Roys and with his bookplate. Charles Henneguier bookplate on title page.
