LEDRU-ROLLIN (Alexandre). Mémoire sur les évenements de la rue Transnonain dans les journées des 13 et 14 avril 1834. Paris, Guillaumin, 1834. In-8 pp. [3]-59. Modern marbled bradel boards. Frontispiece missing. Very fine text by the famous republican lawyer Alexandre Ledru-Rollin (1807-1874), published following the massacre on rue Transnonain (3rd arrondissement) during the July Monarchy. A demonstration organized in Lyon on April 9, 1834 by the Société des droits de l'homme (Human Rights Society) and the Conseil exécutif des sociétés ouvrières de secours mutuel (Workers' Mutual Aid Societies) led to riots, which spread to Paris on April 13 and were met with fierce government repression. On April 14, near a barricade in rue Transnonain, an infantry captain was wounded by a shot allegedly fired from the window of a building; the inhabitants of the building in question were massacred or severely beaten by Bugeaud's forces in retaliation. The event was also immortalized in Daumier's terrible lithograph for the Association mensuelle.
