Plaidoyé sur lequel a esté donné contre les jesuites l'arrest du 16 octobre 1597. Paris: Mamert Patisson, 1597. [And: several others.]

Sammelband of scarce French pamphlets relating to the strife surrounding the Calvinist King Henri IV, including his attempted assassinations, persecution of the Jesuits, and eventual conversion to Catholicism. The first work is one of the many reports published on the sensational trial of the Jesuit student Jean Châtel for his attack on Henri, a rare issue by Mamert Patisson. Many of the works here are only held by a single institution, and almost no sales recorded. USTC 66140, see USTC 199065 (1593 ed)., USTC 15288, USTC 6900722.

Octavo (164 x 100mm). Patisson’s woodcut device on titles of first three works, title of final work printed in red and black with woodcut device of Ancelin (final work somewhat toned). 18th-century calf (joints cracked but sturdy, small losses to leather on rear board). Provenance: erased stamp and duplicate release stamp on title page of final work.
