    Description

    Leather Binding

    'Le Moniteur Universel' was a French newspaper founded by Charles-Joseph Panckoucke in 1789 under the title 'Gazette Nationale ou Le Moniteur Universel'. Whilst the newspaper ceased publication in 1868, it was for a long time the official journal of the French government and at times a propaganda publication, especially under the Napoleonic regime. Indeed, the magazine was the main French newspaper during the French Revolution with a large circulation throughout France and the rest of Europe, and also was circulated in America during the French Revolution. In a full tree calf binding with attractive patterned textblock. Written in the original French. This volume contains issues no.275 (from the 1st October 1792) to no. 305 (the 31st October 1792).
