Route de Strasburg à Versailles par Reims et Compiegne.

Paris: Chez Le Rouge, 1770. First edition (?). Oblong 4to. Engraved title leaf and seven engraved maps, one folding, the other six with a number of strip maps separated by thin rules, detailing the route from Strasburg to Versailles. Delineates topographical features, cities and villages, churches, forests, etc. Not recorded on OCLC. Later patterned wrappers (worn, long tear in rear wrapper); interior soiled, some old tidelines (mostly marginal, but affecting the image in the last two maps); several manuscript additions, but a very good example of a scarce 18th-century French route map.
