French REVOLUTION] PETION de VILLENEUVE (J.): Avis au Français sur le salut de la Patrie. S.n.s.l., 1789. In-8 modern half marbled basane, spine ribbed and decorated (pastiche binding) some stains, one page repaired, the last one with missing right margin. First edition. Jérôme Pétion de Villeneuve sat among the small group of advanced patriots of the Constituent Assembly with François Buzot and Robespierre, of whom he was a friend and shared the democratic fights: fight against the royal veto, the two chambers proposed by the Monarchs, the censal suffrage. He became one of the leaders of the Jacobins. A member of the revision committee, he was appointed to the constitution committee in September 1790, before being elected secretary and then president of the Assembly.
