ANDERSON (Æneas). Relation de l'ambassade du Lord Macartney à la Chine, dans les années 1792, 1793 et1794. Paris, Denné le jeune, Bocquillon et Poisson, l'anIV [1795-1796]. 2tomes in one volume in-8, (2dont la seconde blanche)-xxiv-vii-(1)-255-(uneblanche)-(2dont la seconde blanche)-227-(uneblanche)pp., brown basane, spine ribbed, cloisonné and fleuronné with brown-yellow title-piece, double black fillet framing the boards, guilloche edges, speckled edges; without the faux-title of the second volume; table of the second volume bound after those of the first; worn headbands and corners, small stain on the first cover (period binding). First French translation, in a second edition published the same year as the original, of this work first published in English in 1795. Copper-engraved portrait-frontispiece of Emperor Qianlong (K'ien-Long). Lord Macartney's embassy in China. The gradual closure of China since the beginning of the 18th century, when only Canton remained open to Europeans, prompted England to send an embassy to the emperor to obtain greater freedom for its trade, particularly in tea. This embassy, headed by Lord Macartney, made a long journey by sea, via Madeira, the Canaries, Cape Verde, Rio de Janeiro, then, after rounding the Cape of Good Hope, via Java, Sumatra, along Cochinchina and China to the mouth of the Yang-Tse-Kiang. Lord Macartney then reached Peking and the emperor's summer residence at Jehol. Aeneas Anderson's account is one of the most important sources on this embassy, along with the accounts of John Barrow, Samuel Holmes, Johann Christian Huttner and George Staunton. As Lord Macartney's servant, Aeneas Anderson proved to be an intelligent, attentive and broad-minded observer. After his return from China, he would become an officer in the British army, serving in Malta and Egypt against the French. Joint: Levaillant (François) [and Casimir Varon]. Voyage [...] dans l'intérieur de l'Afrique, par le Cap de Bonne-Espérance, dans les années 1780, 81, 82, 83, 84 &85. ÀParis, chez Leroy, 1790. 2volumes in-8, marbled brown basane, slightly worn (period binding). Copper-engraved plates outside text, several leaves incomplete.
