Lithographic Views of Military Operations in Canada
Lord Charles Beauclerk, 1840
BEAUCLERK, Lord Charles (1813-1842). Lithographic Views of Military Operations in Canada under His Excellency Sir John Colborne, G.C.B., etc. During the Late Insurrection. London: A. Flint, 1840.

A rare eyewitness depiction of the defeat of the "patriotes" during the Papineau rebellion. In original wrappers. Louis Joseph Papineau (1786-1871), leader of the Parti Patriote in Lower Canada, fled to the United States following a series of failed uprisings in 1837. Beauclerk’s Views, based on his own sketches and lithographed by Nathaniel Hartnell (c.1829-1864), depict military operations in which he served as a Captain in the First Royals of the British Army. They are considered the most valued account of the rebellion of 1837. Bobins 35; Lande 1559; Sabin 4164; TPL 2037.

Folio (355 x 265mm). With six hand-colored lithographed plates plus lithographed frontispiece map (a little minor marginal soiling or closed tears, two plates with repaired marginal chips). Original printed wrappers (modern cloth backstrip partially covering a border, wrappers a little stained with erasures and lightly reinforced); modern cloth clamshell.Beauclerk, Charles
