CREQUY (Marquise de): Souvenirs of the Marquise de Créquy. 1710 à 1800. Fournier Jeune, 1834. 7 vols. Contemporary marbled boards. Renée-Caroline-Victoire de Froullay de Tessé, Marquise de Créquy, famous for her wit, of whom Rousseau said she was "Catholicism in cornette and high nobility in negligee", lived to be a hundred years old, and her "Souvenirs", probably written by Maurice Cousin de Courchamps, give us a vivid account, seen from the inside, of the life of the French aristocracy during the troubled times of the Revolution. Qq. Slight foxing but a fine copy.
