Sobre este artículo
Paris: Maisonneuve & Cie, 1867.
8vo. viii, 407 pp. Bound in contemporary vellum spine and tips, marbled paper boards, red leather label; final 10 leaves with lower corners worn away. This copy with a late 19th century Italian bookseller's description which reads in part, "Catalogue très important et recherché pour l'exacte description bibliographique de 1647 ouvrages ayant rapport à Amerique". With faults a good to very good copy.
Leclerc's catalogue, Bibliotheca Americana, is one of the most important lists of books on the Americas published in the 19th century. Including 1647 lots, most with detailed annotations, the books in this collection document the vast field of European Americana in addition to many of the fundamental works published in England and America during the formation of the nation. Sabin writes in part, "it includes a careful collation of each book, and in many instances analyses and important notes. . " Still a very useful work and reference.
