Long after these accounts of travel have satisfied the immediate curiosity of the public they have yielded up to historians curious and precious information about new lands and peoples ; they have, under scholarly analysis, greatly contributed to our understanding of the evolution of ideas and the formation of public opinion. The accounts of French missionaries and explorers in America during the seventeenth and early eight- eenth centuries have for many years engaged the efforts of collectors and schol- ars. The labors of Reuben G. Thwaites, V. H. Paltsits, Gustave Lanson, Gilbert Chinard, and GeofFry Atkinson (to mention the most notable of the recent scholars in the field) have laid the foundations of numerous scientific studies and have made these materials accessible and familiar to the larger reading public. No similar amount of attention has yet been devoted to the French travellers in America during the second hal f of the eighteenth century. Bernard Fay and How- ard Mumford Jones have utilized, with brilliance and discernment, a part of these materials in their studies of Franco-American relations. 1 Charles H. Sherrill and Alexandre Capitaine have each devoted a volume to the French visitors of this period and their impressions. 2 None of these studies has been based upon the extensive collection of materials presented in this bibliography. For the period after 1800 there has been (with a few notable exceptions) a surprising neglect of many valuable materials. The writings of French travellers on the United States from 1765 to 1932 represent a rich and varied collection of materials, unknown to the general reader and largely unexploited by scholars, especially for the period of the nineteenth century. British travellers in the United States are already familiar to the world of scholarship and to the general reading public. The fact that their works have presented no difficulties of language has made them interesting and accessible to the ordinary reader. They have long attracted the attention of American scholars with the result that the field is largely explored and exploited. Jane Louise Mesick's The English Traveller in America, 1785-1835 is a competent survey of a half-century of English observations ; Allan Nevins has recently and very suc- cessfully surveyed a larger field in his American Social History as Recorded by British Travellers (New York, 1923) which presents selections, with copious introductions, from more than a score of the more important accounts. From many points of view the French travellers represent a more varied and richer source of materials. Coming from Latin rather than the familiar Anglo-Saxon backgrounds they brought a different point of view, a new approach, other biases 1 Howard Mumford Jones, America and French Culture, 1750-184S (Chapel Hill, N.

Capitaine draws his materials from eleven of the better-known travellers ; these travellers represent merely a small part of the available materials. [vii] viii THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY and prejudices. The observations of many British travellers until the middle of the nineteenth century were colored by memories of the War of the American Revolution and the War of 1812. Fortunately this particular kind of asperity is gone, but it would not be impossible to find, in the twentieth century, British travellers who still regard the Americans as "colonials" and who observe them and lecture them with a marked degree of condescension. They have not, how- ever, been able to maintain an undisputed monopoly of this point of view. It was enthusiasm rather than bitterness that prejudiced the minds of French travellers to America during the eighteenth century ; and during the early years of the nineteenth century many of the travellers were refugees who had found an asylum in the United States and whose writings were colored by this sentiment of gratitude. America was the object of the admiration, even veneration, of French liberals during the nineteenth century, as it was the recipient of the vituperative attacks of the French Royalists. On the whole, however, the French travellers maintained a more judicious, and often sympathetic, attitude toward the United States. It was this that caused Henry T. Tuckerman to make the following comment : "The social character, the more versatile experience of American life, assimilate it in a degree, and externally, with that of France, and the climate of America develops nervous sensibility; while the exigencies of life foster an adaptive facility, which brings the Anglo-American into more intelligent relations with the Gallic nature than is possible for a people so egotistic and stolid as the English to realize. But this partial sympathy does not altogether account for the French understanding America better : that is owing to a more liberal, a less prejudiced, a more chivalric spirit; to quicker sympathies, to more scientific proclivities, to greater candor and humanity among her thinkers. They are far enough removed in life and character to catch the true moral perspective ; and they have few, if any, wounds of self-love to impede their sense of justice to a country wherewith their own history is often congenially and honorably associated." 3 This was written by Tuckerman during the American Civil War and his opinion had been influenced by contemporary British criticisms of America as well as by the attitude of the French Liberals toward the Civil War. It is interesting to contrast this view with an opinion advanced by a reviewer in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine in 1851 : "Frenchmen are very apt to ex- press great sympathy with, and admiration of, the people of the United States. This arises from various causes. Some are smitten with their democratic institu- tions ; some exult in American independence as a triumph over England ; others assume a share in that triumph, on account of the French auxiliaries in the American war; whilst others, again, suffer their imaginations to be captivated by the wonderfully rapid rise and prodigious development of American wealth and power. It does not require any great amount of sentiment and fancy to get up this kind of love-at-a-distance." The writer then proceeds to develop the thesis that there is "a sort of disenchantment in store for those Frenchmen who, after picturing to themselves the United States as a democratic Utopia, the very para- dise of the worshippers of Liberty, have occasion to visit the unseen land of their 3 Henry T. Tuckerman, America and Her Commentators (New York, 1864), p. 153-54. FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES ix affections ... In fact, no two characters can be more antagonistic than those of Frenchman and American. However strong his predetermination, the former finds it impossible to be pleased in the country where he had fondly anticipated so much gratification." 4 These prejudices and preconceptions which Frenchmen have sometimes brought with them to the United States have been ably discussed by Gilbert Chinard in his study of "le mirage americain." 5 To some of these travellers the cruel deception of this "mirage" was at once apparent ; an excellent example of this sudden disillusionment is found in D'AUemagne, a Parisian who in 1790 was seduced by the eloquence of a group of Scioto land speculators and who came to America to settle the lands which he had bought. This same eloquence persuaded a Parisian engineer, Desjardins, to come to America. Here he lost not only his time, money, health, and ideals, but his whole respect for humanity. In other travellers there are symptoms of a more gradual dispelling of this "mirage," but almost none has failed to note, either in simple surprise or in indignation, the discrepancy between what he thought he was about to find and what he actually found. In others this surprise has been translated into enthusiasm. 6 Several important facts will assist in the understanding of the favorable views of the French travellers entertained by Tuckerman and other early writers on Franco-American relations. The absence of any large collections of materials in the field and the lack of any adequate bibliographical guides were distinct handi- caps to any full understanding of the subject. They were forced to rely upon the better-known accounts, especially those which had been translated into Eng- lish. And publishers, ever mindful of their public, have usually undertaken the translations of only the more favorable views. The result is that general readers and some scholars have been given an incomplete, and hence false, impression of the attitude of visiting Frenchmen. They have mistaken a small part of the canvas for the whole panorama. Scholars who have written on Franco-American relations have tended to minimize the numbers and the value of French views unfavorable to the United States. Indeed, a lengthy list might be drawn up of French travellers whose views were, if not distinctly hostile, decidedly uncompli- mentary to the Americans. 7 The great outbursts of sympathetic enthusiasm engendered by the War of the American Revolution and the World War have each been followed by periods of relative coolness and even hostility. Especially does the present period seem melancholy and discouraging, for many of the present popular French impressions of America have been created by sensational novelists, cheap journalists and cheaper politicians whose intellectual integrity may have collapsed under the strain of ambition and the demands of their purse. At the same time intellectual relations between the two countries have increased 4 Blackivood's Edinburgh Magazine, lxix (1851), p. 545-63.

It is unfortunate that the voice of these scholars seems too often to be drowned out by the cheap clamor and the raucous din for publicity and profits. 8 But this is only a temporary condition ; friendly opinions and counsels will ultimately prevail. Enough has been said to dispel the erroneous notion that French comment on the United States has been an un- qualified eulogy. Frequently the hostile literature yields up to the historian some of his most valuable material. The foundations of Franco-American friendship are so broad and firm that the towering edifice will hardly be disturbed by the diatribes of designing politicians, muck-raking journalists, or dyspeptic and dis- tempered tourists. The interesting fluctuations in French opinion of America is a subject too complicated for treatment in the present limited space and is one which I am in the course of developing elsewhere. It is impossible to characterize, with any degree of exactitude, the hundreds of French travellers who have written on America ; in the editorial notes I have sometimes taken the opportunity to comment upon individual travellers. One observation, however, should be made here. Goethe once remarked to Eckermann that the Germans were really a queer people, for "by their profound thoughts and ideas which they seek everywhere and trust, they make life much more burdensome than is necessary." French thinkers often suffer from a different virtue : French thought is often clear and very logical ; it seeks the in- terpretive generalization as a means of simplifying life. This desire to generalize, which frequently degenerates to a mere love of the epigrammatic, often leads to curious results in the pages of those commentators who have followed de Tocque- ville. Not a few critics are bold enough to attempt to superimpose a pattern of logical thought upon the changing, tumultuous life of these United States. In the light of the materials contained in this list it must be admitted that the old generalization about the French being infrequent travellers no longer has any great degree of truth. Although accurate statistics do not exist for a detailed comparison, it is evident that the French as travellers would compare very favor- ably with the English. This bibliography contains more than 1,800 entries, in- cluding translations and many items of no very great significance. It contains examples of every type of traveller: soldiers and sailors, either on active service or upon missions of investigation; missionaries of religion; propagandists of French culture; merchants and land speculators of all descriptions; immigrants ; refugees and exiles, fleeing the law, "leaving their country for their country's good," and escaping political vengeance; official investigators of education, in- dustry, etc. ; students ; honeymooners ; musicians and actresses ; artists and litterateurs in search of materials ; lecturers ; adventurers ; those who have come to seek wives; those who have married Americans; sportsmen; journalists and publicists who have been brought over by various international foundations to promote Franco- American relations ; and mere tourists. 8 For an interesting discussion of French contemporary fiction concerning the United States written by French travellers see "French Authors Take Revenge" by C. E. Andrews in The Book- man, March, 1931. FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES xi They have been in the United States for varying periods of time: Le Braz spent three days in America ; Albert Delaporte remained six days ; Maurice Don- nay, seventeen ; Georges N. Tricoche spent thirty years here. Volney wrote to La Revelliere-Lepeaux in 1797: "il me semble impossible d'avoir une idee nette de ce grand pays a moins de trois ans, surtout pour un frangais." This was written when the United States was a small, agricultural community. Few trav- ellers could measure up to this requirement of time, for it is certainly excessive when we consider that M. Georges Duhamel was able to write one of the most influential of contemporary books on the United States after a visit of six weeks, during much of which time he was confined to his rooms by an illness. I have sometimes indicated in the notes the length of time spent by the traveller in his observations and travels. The written records of these impressions have taken many forms : books, pamphlets, articles, letters to friends, thinly-disguised novels, official reports, published lectures, dramas (such as those of Tapon-Foujas, who suffered from a mental disorder), memoirs, journals, diaries, and poems, such as those of E. Prarond and Jacques Henri Pillionel (though these are, fortu- nately, rare). The value of the materials here assembled must be studied in detail to be properly appreciated, for they enrich and embellish many fields of study. They throw an interesting light upon American social history; they provide new materials for American political and economic history. A few of the earlier examples will illustrate this point. The anonymous account of a French traveller in the colonies in 1765 9 presents one of the few extant reports of those who heard Patrick Henry's celebrated speech and from this report we have a new version of that famous event. Three years later John Kalb arrived in Philadelphia on a secret mission for the French government. Shortly after his arrival he made an interesting and significant prophecy. In February, 1768, he reported to Choiseul : "All classes of people here are imbued with such a spirit of independence and freedom from control, that if the provinces can be united under a common representation, an independent state will soon be formed. At all events it will certainly come forth in time." 10 Quesnay de Beaurepaire published in 1788 his project for the establishment of an Academy of Arts and Sciences at Richmond. In the following decade another French traveller, Tanguy de la Boissiere, published the first journal of political economy in America, and J. P. Blanchard, the French aeronaut, accomplished the first successful aerial flight in the New World. The materials included in this bibliography form the largest group of first-hand French observations upon America that has yet been collected. They provide a field for the study of national psychology. They are a modest contribution to the bibliography of American travel. These are new materials for the study of Franco-American relations, a field out of which have already come many brilliant and fruitful studies and a field which attracts an increasing number of scholars and students. They point to the desirability and the necessity for detailed studies 9 See item 859. io Friedrich Kapp, Life of John Kalb (New York, 1870), p. 63. xii THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY of the influence of the United States in France during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It should now no longer be possible for a scholar to write on French Political Thought in the Nineteenth Century, as did Mr. Roger Soltau (New Haven, 1931 ) and to dismiss the question of American influence by a few vague and often inaccurate references. This bibliography is the result of work begun in 1929, the preparation of a volume on American social history as recorded by French travellers. 11 In the fall of that year I went to Paris to continue my researches. I soon perceived that some systematic bibliography of the subject was essential for my own work and that such a bibliography would probably prove useful to students of other fields. While there was an obvious need for bibliographical treatment of French travel in the United States, it is surprising that no serious attempts had been made to compile one. For some years the project of a vast bibliography of American travel has been agitated by a group of interested American scholars. Much progress has been made toward this end, but it has been slow, and if it is carried out along the wise and generous lines suggested by Dr. Solon J. Buck, it will be some years before the work will finally be completed. 12 Henry T. Tuckerman in his America and Her Commentators, with a Critical Sketch of Travel in the United States, devoted two chapters, with meagre bibliographical references, to French travellers and writers on the United States from the period of the Revo- lution to the Civil War. These chapters, containing frequent errors, discussed merely the better-known travellers and writers, often without discriminating between them. Bernard Fay in his Bibliographic critique des ouvrages francais relatifs aux Etats-Unis, 1770-1800 (Paris, 1925) devotes his attention to the travels published during those thirty years; the present bibliography contains many new items for that period that cannot be classified as strictly travel accounts. It includes a few accounts of eighteenth-century travellers that have been discov- ered and published since 1800. Henry R. Wagner's The Plains and the Rockies: A Bibliography of Original Narratives of Travel and Adventure , 1800—1865 (San Francisco, 1921), admirable in plan and execution, contains numerous omissions for the period and the region which it was seemingly designed to cover. The Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris has no subject catalogue for the greater part of the period which interests us ; their subject catalogue which begins in the latter part of the nineteenth century is incomplete and faulty. The Hugh C. 11 Translated selections from forty French travellers, with an introduction and notes, probably to be published early in 1935. 12 For an explanation of this work see "The Bibliography of American Travel: A Project" by Solon J. Buck in The Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America, XXII (1928), p. 52-59. The period to be covered is from 1600 to 1900. Dr. Buck proposes that descriptive items like Bryce's American Commomvealth be included as well as the mere narrations of travels and that materials in magazines, in volumes of collections, and even in newspapers be included. He estimates that the total number of items will be about six thousand. I believe that the total number of items is seriously underestimated, especially if the bibliography is to contain newspaper materials. Dr. Chazin, upon inquiry, informs me that during a period of ten years during the nineteenth century two American correspondents of two Belgian newspapers contributed more than 500 articles. J. C. Houzeau once estimated that his newspaper contributions on America would fill twelve volumes. If I might hazard an estimate I would say that Belgian and French items alone would total more than six thousand. Dr. Buck has recently informed me that the present available funds will probably carry the work only as far as 1830. FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES xiii Wallace Library, a valuable collection on Franco-American relations, was then in formation and possessed no catalogue of its treasures. The American libraries, somewhat better endowed with catalogues and bibliographical equipment, then possessed no collections of materials that approached completeness. The bulk of the materials here presented was first gathered in Paris, where bibliographical research assumes many interesting forms. Much of the work was necessarily done in the Bibliotheque Nationale, with its challenging and baffling immensity, and in other public libraries in Paris. Not a few of the travellers' books were first discovered in the book stalls on the quays along the Seine ; many were found and consulted in the collections of various Parisian booksellers whose kindness and intelligence deserve mention. They frequently threw open their collections to my examination and assisted me with a degree of affability and knowledge not so frequently found among their brethren in the United States. The Librairie fimile Nourry possesses the largest collection of travellers that I have yet found in France or in the United States ; the Librairie Maurice Chamonal possesses, among other valuable items, a splendid collection of materials by and concerning Cabet and Beluze ; M. Chadenat contributed largely to the building up of the splendid collection formed by the late Hugh C. Wallace under the direction of Col. Beckles Willson ; M. Alph. Margraff and M. Marcel Blancheteau have been of great service in unearthing obscure items. The catalogues of various other Parisian and provincial dealers have yielded up many valuable materials. The private libraries in Paris were generously opened to me. In the library of James Hazen Hyde I found items for which I had fruitlessly searched at the Bibliotheque Nationale. The richest and most complete private library of ma- terials on Franco-American relations was that presented to the American Em- bassy in Paris by the late Hugh C. Wallace. With the assistance of Col. Beckles Willson I examined each of the books and pamphlets that make up this extensive collection, now housed in the American Embassy. This collection should become, if properly augmented and administered, a center of Franco-American studies. When I returned to the United States I was able to examine the voluminous materials in the possession of The New York Public Library and the Library of Congress. The catalogues of other libraries in Europe and the United States were consulted with profit. The many writings on Franco-American relations supplied further information and suggestions. Sabin was searched item by item and Lorenz was examined for relevant material. Following the first publication of this bibliography in the Bulletin of The New York Public Library 13 much new material was contributed by several libraries and interested scholars: the Library of Congress, the William L. Clements Library, the John Carter Brown Library, M. Aegidius Fauteux, chief librarian of the Montreal Public Library, M. Fernand Baldensperger, of the Sorbonne, and Dr. Edward Larocque Tinker, whose two recent volumes are notable contributions to Franco-Americana. Since the list was first published I have been enabled to include more than two hundred new items, to add several notes, and to correct a few errors. While every effort has been made to make this list as complete as possible I fully realize that there are J 3 In seven parts from March to October, 1932. xiv THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY doubtless omissions. I shall gladly welcome further information concerning items which come within the scope of this bibliography. The success of a project of such magnitude demands the co-operation of interested scholars and librarians and I invite the active collaboration of those who are working in the field. The materials presented many problems that demanded solutions. There were numerous anonymous books and pamphlets; I have been able to establish the authorship of several. 14 There sometimes existed a serious confusion of names that I have been able to disentangle. 15 Several of the books have been republished under various titles ; others have been republished, but with the addition of new materials. I have tried to indicate these changes in the various notes. A problem that presented many difficulties was the separation of those who had actually travelled in the United States from those who merely seemed to have travelled. Literary history contains numerous examples of authors who have written books of travel without ever having ventured beyond their local libraries. Daniel Coxe, a seventeenth-century English land speculator, wrote in his Account of New Jersey that he had "made greate discoveryes towards the greate Lake . . . and contracted Freinshipp with diverse petty Kings . . ." but we know that these events were experienced where they were written : in the quiet of his study in Aldersgate Street, London. The task of recognizing these sedentary tourists is a difficult one ; nor does the evidence supplied by the text always provide a means of recognizing them. They do not directly say they have travelled in the regions which they describe, but they frequently desire (from a variety of motives) to give the impression that they are relating actual experiences and observations. In 1863 there was published in Paris a book which described the experiences of a Parisian family suddenly transported to the United States : Paris en Amerique, by Dr. Rene Lefebre. It was filled with humor, piquant anecdote, and sagacious observations upon American political and social life. Americans then residing in Paris took it to be the work of a Frenchman who had long resided in the United States. Beginning with the eighth edition, published early in 1864, the book carried the name of its real author, fidouard Laboulaye, a distinguished professor at the College de France. It was difficult to determine, in Paris in 1930, whether or not Laboulaye had ever visited the United States. There were neither biblio- graphical nor biographical data available ; invitations were found asking Labou- laye to visit the United States and there were abundant indications that he wished to come. Obituaries revealed nothing on the question. One day, however, in the British Museum I found Mary L. Booth's English translation of his book and in the preface the brief statement that he had never been in the United States, though his knowledge of America was greater than that of any other European. His book continues to fool the unwary : as late as 1900, Edmond de Nevers speaks of Laboulaye as one of the most important of those "touristes europeens lettres qui ont traverses l'Atlantique." 14 See, among others, items 962, 1002, 1523, and the note under Ferdinand Longchamp in the Addenda. 15 Such as that between the Abbe Robin and Qaude C. Robin. FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES xv Even more baffling are the deliberate fabrications such as that of Price Collier. In 1897 there was published in London and New York an anonymous book, America and the Americans from a French Point of View. In the dedication the author states : "It may seem strange to the readers of some of these pages that I dedicate this little book to you, an American ... I lay my prejudices as a French- man at your feet ..." In the preface he states that he is a member of an old French family, that he has allowed these pages to be translated upon condition that his identity remain hidden ; "it is enough that a Frenchman . . . writes them." It required almost two days of research, with visits to the Paris office of the London Times, to discover that this was a literary hoax. The author, although educated in Switzerland and Germany, had been born in America, had been a newspaper correspondent and had served in the United States Navy during the Spanish-American War. Fortunately the problem of M. Charles Bastide, who during 1918-19 published a series of twelve books on contemporary American civilization, was settled by a letter from the author in which he expressed his regret that he had never visited the United States. My file of discarded items contains several hundred titles which have been examined and omitted from this bibliography because I could find no credible evidence of their actual travels in the United States. When authorities have referred to authors as travellers and I have not been able to establish the fact that they were actually in America I have frequently expressed, in the notes, doubts of their travels. During the course of my investigations I compiled lengthy lists of French travellers in the United States who seemingly left no published records of their observations and impressions. We would be willing to give much had some of these travellers left their impressions. Franqois Louis Michel Deforgues, French minister at New Orleans under Napoleon, might have said much concerning life in Louisiana at the beginning of the nineteenth century, but he wrote nothing during a lengthy life of considerable leisure. Louis Marie Turreau de Garambou- ville, who fought in the War of the American Revolution and who was French Minister to the United States from 1804 to 1811, has left no published account of the many events of which he was a close observer. The Marquis de Grouchy, who lived in America from 1815 to 1821, wrote virtually nothing on the United States, although he lived for another twenty-six years after his return to France. In the course of time it is probable that unpublished manuscripts of other French travellers will be discovered and published, especially when the French consular and diplomatic archives are further opened to investigators. The Hugh C. Wal- lace Collection contains a valuable manuscript of Crevecceur which is worthy of separate publication. Manuscript letters of other travellers are probably scat- tered throughout various collections. An example of this is the manuscript letter of Pierre Franqois de Real now contained in the John Boyd Thacher Collection in the Library of Congress. The Comte de Real lived in exile in the United States from 1816 to 1827 when he returned to Paris. Although he wrote his memoirs at length it is curious to observe that he makes no mention of the United States. xvi THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY More significant then is this letter written from Le Havre May 24, 1827 and addressed to Philip Hone of New York : ". . . The moment I again saw this France from which I had been exiled eleven years ago my first thought, I confess, was not for my old fatherland. I turned toward the West, and, my heart filled with grati- tude, I paid homage to that other country, the United States, and the State of New York especially, which so generously gave hospitality to the outcast. At this moment when I re-enter France, more than ever before, I am convinced that it is to the sole kindness, to the all-powerful intervention of the American revolution, that the victims of revolutions and counter-revolutions which stain old Europe with blood, will be obligated for their escape from that scaffold which vengeance always raises after political convulsions. Without the United States there would be no shelter for the outcast but that of prison, no repose but that of the tomb. "Tranquillity, happiness, liberty, independence, security: these are the words which in their full meaning and significance are thoroughly understood only in the United States, where one meets neither peasant nor pauper, where one enters without passport and leaves without per- mission, where one sees neither Jesuit nor gendarme, etc., etc. "Ah! how I am going to make haste to terminate my affairs here! How impatient am I already to return to those forests where I spent eleven years so free and independent, so tranquil and happy, or to those friends who have been so thoughtful and so indulgent to me ; and espe- cially to you, kind sir, and to your family where I was received and where my daughter was cared for with such kindness and such perfect affection . . ." In the bibliography which follows I have endeavored to include all the French travellers who have left printed accounts of their voyages and experiences in the regions now comprised within the United States from 1765 to 1932. The year 1765 has been selected as the anterior date because at that time the movement which culminated in independence was already in motion and was being closely observed by French travellers and as early as 1768 Kalb predicted that inde- pendence was inevitable. This bibliography is an attempt to gather together all the writing on the United States by French authors who have had the opportunity of actual contact with and observation of life in its variegated aspects in America. It is not confined to the reports of the mere travels themselves, but is meant to include all writings in which the influence of their travels and observations is expressly stated or in which that influence can be definitely traced. All such materials, when they have been published in the form of books or pamphlets, including reprints from periodicals, have been sought. Purely scientific studies, such as Ferussac's Observations sur la synonymie des co quill es bivalves de YAmerique septentrionale ( Paris, 1835 ) , have been omitted from this work, even though the researches upon which they are based might have been carried out FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES xvii in the United States. This list is not to be understood as being restricted to travellers who were born in France or who became French citizens. It includes those neighboring peoples who have been greatly influenced by French civilization and who use the French language : many of the Belgians and the Swiss, who are, for the present purposes, distinguishable from native Frenchmen only with con- siderable difficulty. It contains accounts written in French by French-Canadian travellers and by travellers from other territories essentially French in their culture. Infrequently it includes travellers of other nationalities when those travellers have originally written in French ; I have tried to indicate in the notes the origins of these travellers. I have excluded authors born in the United States of French parentage; the exceptions to this exclusion are several Louisiana writers who frequently went to France and who were far more French than they were American. In the matter of Frenchmen who have migrated and settled in the United States I have fixed arbitrary limits for inclusion. If, for example, a French lad has been brought to the United States at the age of twelve, has settled down and become Americanized, and at the age of seventy has recorded his memories of an active and useful life, I have excluded that material. But, if a Frenchman has lived long enough in France to acquire a French background and a French outlook, has migrated to the United States and has written of his ex- periences during his early years here, I have included that material, for it usually illustrates the interplay of two cultures. I have included such material even though that particular traveller may later have become a naturalized American citizen. It is obvious that it is impossible to establish hard and fast rules for including and excluding the type of material that I have assembled in this bibliography. No effort has been made to search through the periodicals and newspapers after 1800 to discover travellers' accounts, but for travellers who were in the United States anterior to 1800 their writings have been sought and included regardless of where those materials first found publication. Many eighteenth-century French travellers' accounts have been published in later periodicals and in the journals of learned societies; others have been utilized by various authors in books and articles, and where these latter contain extended excerpts from un- published manuscripts of travellers they have been included. The fact that this same procedure has not been followed for the periods after 1800 does not represent such an omission as might be supposed, for the French have long had the custom of reprinting important magazine articles in brochure form — and where these newspaper and periodical articles have formed a series they have frequently been reprinted in book form. Dr. Maurice Chazin of Co- lumbia University has made a study of the American materials in French and Belgian periodicals of the nineteenth century; this study deserves to find its way into print at an early date, for it will notably increase our knowledge of Franco- American relations during that period. The materials are arranged alphabetically by authors and, in the case of anony- mous items, by titles, with necessary cross-references. For convenient reference each item has been numbered ; "A" and "B" numbers have been provided for items xviii THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY which were inserted after the original numbering had been made. The great majority of the items have been seen and examined by the editor. An attempt has been made to locate copies in two American libraries. Material in The New York Public Library is indicated by the proper classmarks. I have tried to make a complete check of the materials in the Library of Congress, because their collec- tions are large and the majority of their material is available for inter-library loan. Where the two copies have not been located in The New York Public Library and the Library of Congress I have attempted to locate copies in other American libraries. The compilation of this useful information locating copies in the various American libraries is partly the work of Daniel C. Haskell of The New York Public Library and partly the work of the staff of the Union Catalog in the Library of Congress. Before the list was first published it was checked by Mr. Haskell and after the first publication it was again checked, together with the inserted items and the Addenda, by the staff of the Union Catalog. 16 I have in- dicated the source of my bibliographical information for the items of which no copies have been found. When material has been found in serial publications I have given no location other than the classmark of the material in The New York Public Library. In the last analysis, of course, it is possible to tell whether or not a desired book is in a particular library only by consulting the catalogues of that library, for books are sometimes mislaid and lost and additions are con- stantly being made to the collections of the principal libraries. Where possible I have attempted to include rather full bibliographical infor- mation. Since my notes on items which I examined in the Bibliotheque Nationale in the early stages of my work did not always include sufficient detailed infor- mation I have sometimes been forced to rely upon the printed catalogue of the Bibliotheque Nationale; the earlier volumes of this catalogue contain but meagre bibliographical information. Hence there is a certain paucity of details concerning some of the items not available in American libraries. At other times I have been forced to rely upon the information supplied by correspondents, and this information has varied in the degree of completeness. Many of the entries are followed by brief notes. For the better-known travellers comment was super- fluous. Some items adequately describe themselves in their titles; others are described by a brief summary of their table of contents. A few of the items have required more lengthy notes. I have not attempted to list all the editions of an item unless the later editions contain revisions, new materials, or illustrations not included in the first. Although no exhaustive search has been made for trans- lations, I have included them when found. When there are two or more entries under the same author, the items have, if possible, been arranged chronologically. Translations immediately follow the entry for the French title. !6 This Union Catalog of the Library of Congress is an extraordinary and comparatively recent development destined to be of almost unlimited service to the world of scholarship. It contained (according to recent statistics) 13,000,000 cards from over 500 American libraries. Of these cards 8,500,000 represented the locations of more than 7,000,000 different book titles in over 500 libraries. This is not only the largest card catalogue in the world, but it is also the most complete catalogue of materials in the Library of Congress. Those who avail themselves of the services of this catalogue will be delighted, as I have been, with the cordial and intelligent co-operation extended by Dr. Ernest Kletsch, the director, and Mr. George A. Schwegmann, jr., the assistant director. FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES xix In the description of formats, difficulties arose which are still without solution. There is no uniform method of describing formats employed by the French publishers, the Bibliotheque Nationale, the British Museum, and the American libraries. The latter have recently adopted the practice of describing the size by giving the measurements in centimeters : a logical procedure, but one alien to European library methods. Frequently the same item will be described by the publishers as in one format, by the Bibliotheque Nationale as another, and by the British Museum as yet a third. Nor is it always possible to translate French terms into what seems to be their English equivalents. "In-12" cannot always be described as "12°." In the midst of this confusion I have usually given the format as described by the catalogue of the library whose copy T have consulted. I regret the necessity of this procedure, but the reader will gain from the various entries an approximate idea of the format of the various items. A final count of the corrected bibliography 17 reveals 1,806 title entries. This includes the various editions of an item and includes the various translations that are listed. Of this total there are 267 titles that have not yet been located in any library in the United States or Canada. These titles do not seem to be available in American or Canadian libraries, but frequently the text is available in another edition or a translation. Of this total of 1,806 title entries there are 586 not yet available in The New York Public Library, but a further check reveals that the texts of 167 of these items are available in The New York Public Library in other editions, translations, and periodical form. These statistics require revision as new additions are made to the collections of the Library. At the end of the regular list will be found a valuable Addenda. This is made up of new entries and of new information concerning items that appear in the regular list. This was made necessary by the fact that the final sheets of the earlier parts of the regular list were printed as quickly as possible. For all names and entries the Addenda should be consulted as well as the regular list. A few errors have been noted in the Corrigenda ; they consist principally of minor misspellings. In the hope of facilitating the consultation of the materials con- tained in this bibliography I have added a selected chronological list of travellers and an index of subjects and names of persons and places. Despite their limited scope I feel they will be useful. It is a pleasure to acknowledge the many friendly debts I have incurred during the course of my work. My special thanks are due to : The American Field Service Foundation, whose grant of a fellowship in 1929 enabled me to pursue my work in Paris; Mr. Worthington C. Ford; Col. Beckles Willson, curator of the Hugh C. Wallace Collection ; Mr. James Hazen Hyde, who for more than thirty years has labored to promote Franco-American relations; Professor Bernard Fay of the College de France ; MM. Chamonal, Chadenat, Blancheteau, and Clavreu'il, scholars and booksellers, of Paris ; Madame Paul Vulliaud of the Librairie fimile Nourry; Dr. Maurice Chazin, whose knowledge and friendly assistance have been of constant value ; Mr. Robert R. Finster, editor of publications, The New !7 After the final sheets of the regular list had been printed it was discovered that several items ought to have been deleted from the bibliography. See the Corrigenda. xx THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY York Public Library; Mr. Daniel C. Haskell of The New York Public Library, resourceful and tireless in locating new materials as in editing and proofreading this bibliography ; and to the staffs of the various libraries in Europe and America in which I have spent many pleasant hours, and without whose efforts the work of scholars would seldom reach successful conclusions. Since this bibliography first began publication in the Bulletin of The New York Public Library more than a year ago I have contracted a number of additional debts which I am happy to acknowledge: Professor Fernand Baldensperger, of the Sorbonne; M. Aegidius Fauteux, chief librarian of the Montreal Public Library; Mr. Lawrence C. Wroth, of the John Carter Brown Library; Dr. Randolph G. Adams and Miss Elizabeth B. Steere, of the William L. Clements Library; Dr. Edward Larocque Tinker, of New York City ; Dr. Ernest Kletsch and Mr. George A. Schwegmann, jr., of the Union Catalog of the Library of Congress; Mr. Max J. Kohler of New York City; Mr. Nathan Shiff and Miss Naomi J. Levenson for assistance in the compilation of the index. The spirit of friendly co-operation among scholars and librarians is one of the substantial pleasures of scholarly endeavor. I take this occasion to thank in advance others who may be induced to co-operate in supplying new materials for this bibliography or in pointing out errors that it may contain. I owe, as do other workers in the field, a special debt of gratitude to The New York Public Library for this opportunity of publication and for the intelligence and liberality with which it has seen fit to augment its collection of the writings of French travellers in the United States. To my wife, who has tolerated and encouraged this innocuous form of biblio- mania, I offer this bibliography as an apology for many silent hours. Frank Monaghan New York University, June 22, 1933.

Gustave Aimard was the pen name of Olivier Gloux (1818-1883), who is usually referred to as Aimard. He was a prolific author whose works attained such popu- larity in France, England, and the United States that he became more than a mere author and rose to the dimensions of an industry. He was known as the French Fenimore Cooper; certainly he deserves a high place among the imitators of Cooper. He spent long periods in North and South America, periods which are said to total more than twenty years. He visited Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, California, Texas and possibly other regions which are now part of the United States. His first visit to the United States was from 1835 to 1845; he returned again about 1850. Through his many volumes he managed to convey to the Old World a considerable knowledge of Indian customs and of life on the frontier. What modern literary research has been devoted to Aimard (and that has not been much) reveals him to have had a sur- prising knowledge of life and customs in the South- west. His novels can, with certain reservations, be taken to accurately portray certain aspects of pioneer and frontier life. Aimard's views on the United States were most interesting: he saw in America the land of liberty and theoretical philanthropy, a land where the t 1] THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY AlMARD, G., PSEUD., Continued people had one God, the God Dollar. He early accused the Americans of imperialist designs, designs that would bring the entire continent under American domination. The usual conclusion of travellers: that we were in- sufferable puritans — did not escape him. The greatest virtue of the Americans was their conquering energy that was transforming a continent. Virgil L. Jones has written in the Southwestern Reviciv (xv, 1930, p. 452-68) a study of Aimard. The list that follows is, I believe, the first attempt to compile a bibliography of Aimard's writings touching the regions now a part of the United States. The total of his various writings is large: the NYPL catalogue lists more than 70 titles; the new catalogue of the BM contains more than 175 entries; the catalogue of the BN lists 238 entries. Both the collections of the BM and the BN have important omissions; nor can a com- plete bibliography be compiled from all these collections. In the following list the original French editions are arranged chronologically; each original edition is fol- lowed by translations, chiefly drawn from the collec- tion of the NYPL. At the end of the list will be found several translations for which I have been unable to find the French originals, together with the several books in which Aimard collaborated with J. B. d'Auriac. Aimard frequently borrowed materials from one book to fill another. For a more complete view of Aimard's productions consult the catalogues of the above-men- tioned libraries. Le chercheur de pistes.

With a large number of emigrants he sailed from Le Havre in February, 1790. Early in May they arrived in Chesapeake Bay, but after a most miserable crossing. In Alexandria they found neither food nor drink — nor the agents of the Scioto enter- prise, whom they expected to meet there. Two members of the group sent to New York did not return; the others considered travelling to Scioto, but were deterred by the stories of vast deserts, of savage Indians, of "ferocious beasts, tigers, bears, and flying serpents" that infested the region. They determined to return to France; the greater part of the group were forced to remain in Virginia, the others reached Paris in July, and were cured of "la folie de Scioto."

The more important chapters treat: temperance in Maine, slavery and the Blacks, gallantry in America, flirtation, fine arts in America, social positions, cemeteries, William Penn, and Stephen Girard. In a chapter of concluding advice to his countrymen he advocates the criminal prosecution of all authors who contribute to the legend of a rich, democratic, and happy America.

He first conceived the idea of visiting America from meeting Fanny Kemble. He found in America the materials to justify and support the theories of his intimate friend, de Tocqueville, to whom he dedicated the two volumes. His observations are intelligent, some- times shrewd, and often witty. He met the most dis- tinguished American scientists, publicists, and authors, but his travels were confined to the northeastern states. He was so fascinated by the beauty of the American cemeteries that he wished to die and be buried in one, Ereferably at Mount Auburn, Mass. On second thought e states that he would prefer being at Cambridge and getting a professorship there. The lyric advertisements of the pork industry in Cincinnati reminded him of the poetry of Dante.

The identity of the author has never been discovered: nor do the records of the French publisher contribute to elucidate the mystery.

He was a liberal with republican sentiments, and, although his comments are often incisive and severe, he was sympa- thetic to the American experiment.

She was a republican before visiting America, but as a result of her ob- servations she concluded that such a form of govern- ment would never do for France. Petty annoyances colored her opinions of American social life: she states that the most conspicuous thing about a Yankee is the soles of his feet; that the Yankee expectorates once a minute — and is the champion of the world. American men seemed odious to her; American women, exactly opposite. She praised American railways, declaring that the Pacific Railroad was one of the few great achievements of the century.

This is a statement that could hardly have been made two years earlier. There are great things which France does not know about the L T nited States; these things they are now learning. In Car- lier's opinion there was an excellent argument to be advanced for the separation of the North and the South. He clearly understood that the emancipation of the slaves was not a solution of the problem of the negroes, but that it merely changed its aspect. Once they were freed there must be a method of saving them. Copies: NYPL (SEKK); LC; BN.

This history was the chief concern of Carlier for the last twenty years of his life. Carlier states that among modern nations the Ameri- cans are the people best placed and in the most favorable circumstances to exert a great influence on the future of the world. America is a vast field of study for the philosopher, the economist, the historian. He is able to give important modifications upon de Tocqueville's ideas on the family and marriage in America.

It is the fashion to blame them for something. It is the fashion to regard them as a troop of pirates who do nothing but go bankrupt, travel on steamboats, and fight with revolvers in the streets. In his opinion the more one studies the Americans the more one is impressed with their qualities, their real grandeur, and their great future. Carrey found that generosity was the base of American character. Everywhere he found literacy, knowledge and equality. And in America he witnessed a great sympathy for France.

He was attracted to the United States by the great Chicago Exposition of 1893. He arrived in the United States in May, 1893, and left in July of the same year. Although he shook the hand of President Cleveland he was not favorably impressed by the people in Amer- ica, for he found them all oppressed by the terrific struggle for life, and turned with pleasure to medi- tating how sweet and deep must be the sleep in an American cemetery.

Professor Cestre, one of the best-known French authorities on American affairs, holds the chair of American Literature and Civilization at the Sorbonne. His pamphlet on Harvard L'niversity, a lecture in printed form, written while he was an instructor at the University of Dijon, attracted wide attention and comment at the time of its publication. He had just returned from two years of graduate work at Harvard; he was the first French student to complete his graduate studies in English in an American university. Fol- lowing his return to France he lectured and wrote extensively, especially in La Revue de I'enseigncment superieur, on American universities. When the chair of American studies was established at the Sorbonne in 1918 he was the logical candidate for the post, which he has held since that time.

For the interesting and highly-complicated questions, both historical and literary, concerning Chateaubriand's visit to America see under Kate Emma Armstrong, Gilbert Chinard, and Fernand Baldensperger, the most recent and competent authorities. Victor Giraud and Joseph Bedier have also made important contributions to the study of the early career of Chateaubriand. The narrative of his travels is found in his Voyage en Amerique (1826) and in the first volume of his Mcmoires d'Outre-Tombe (1849). But the "nouvelle muse" which he found in America, instead of the North- west Passage, provided the inspiration for Atala (1801), Rene (1805), and Les Natchez (written about 1797, published in 1826). Any detailed bibliography of Chateaubriand's writ- ings would approach the size of a small volume. An adequate and convenient bibliography is supplied by the printed catalogue of the BN which contains some 713 entries. The items listed below are composed chiefly of a few interesting editions of his writings on America and other writings in which the influence of his Ameri- can experience is most marked.

Chevalier lived in the United States and Canada from 1850 until March, 1860, when he returned to France to recuperate from an illness caused by over- work. His ten years in America were filled with activ- ity. He was a novelist, journalist, translator, geog- rapher, geologist, historian, and tourist. He was one of the editors of the Courrier des Etats-Unis at New York and was a correspondent of I'Orleanis at New Orleans. In these two papers many of his novels received their first publication. While in America he is said to have published more than twenty volumes, among which were La Vie a New-York in six volumes and Les Deserts de V Amerique septentrionale in two volumes. Sabin locates no copies of these works, nor have I been able to locate copies or even definite bibliographical information concerning them.

Chevalier, Michel. Chevalier (1806-1879), celebrated French economist, was an important follower of Saint Simon, the founder of modern socialism. He became active in the movement and in 1830 became editor of Le Globe, a Parisian daily newspaper. When the school at Menilmontant was broken up by the authorities he was sentenced by a French court to six months' imprisonment. M. Thiers, under the advice of Legrand, sent him to the United States to study railroads. He arrived in America in December, 1833, and remained until October, 1835. America charmed him from the day of his arrival. "La vie en France est une perpetuelle station — ici e'est un voyage perpetuel." Here he found a new world, where the past had not yet imposed an oppressive routine and where there were no great privileges of birth. His letters addressed to the Journal des Debats were very successful and established his reputation. These letters were republished and form about a third of the text of Les Lettres sur I' Amerique du Nord. During his lengthy career as publicist and professor he was constantly occupied in promoting the relations between France and the United States. Among his contemporaries he enjoyed a reputation equal to that of his two distinguished contemporaries, de Tocqueville VOYAGE DE NEWPORT A PHILADEPHIE, ALBANY, &c. A NEWPORT, D E L'IMPRIMERIF.

The study of Franco-American relations is indebted to no one scholar more than to Gilbert Chinard, pro- fessor of French Literature at Johns Hopkins Uni- versity. His editorial labors have made available to the world of scholarship many unpublished manuscripts of Volney, Du Pont de Nemours, La Fayette, and Jeffer- son. His original contributions first opened up the field for the study of "l'exotisme americain" in French literature from the sixteenth to the nineteenth cen- turies. His recent activities include a biography of Thomas Jefferson and a forthcoming study of John Adams. Notes sur le voyage de Chateaubriand en Amerique (juillet-decembre, 1791).

General Collot was a French officer who had served with Rochambeau during the American revolutionary war. In 1796 he undertook, at the request of Adet, the French ambassador to the United States, to furnish a detailed memoir on the western regions of the United States, the Ohio and Mississippi vaileys. His voyage from Pittsburgh to New Orleans required from March to December, 1796. He died in 1805 and his manu- script remained unpublished until 1826. From the un- usual copy in the NYPL it will be seen that the Voyage was printed, but not published, in 1804. Voyage dans l'Amerique septentrionale . . .

CONSIDERANT, VlCTOR PROSPER. Considerant (1808-1893) at the age of twenty-one adopted the very unpopular communistic doctrines of Fourier, at whose death in 1837, he became the chief of the movement. He was the real founder of the cooperative movement in France. Accused of treason, he fled to Belgium in 1849 and came to New York in 1852. There he received the support of Albert Bris- bane and made a journey to Texas. His highly en- thusiastic account of that territory, An Texas, pub- lished in many editions, received wide attention. He formed a company and in 1855 settled at Reunion, several miles from Dallas. After several years it failed, and Considerant settled in San Antonio, re- turning to Paris in 1869, and dying obscurely in 1893. Au Texas.

Copy: NYPL (KBG). Crevecceur, Michel Guillaume St. Jean de. Crevecceur first came to New York in 1759, where six years later he became a naturalized American citizen. His Letters from an American Farmer, one of the popular and influential books of the eighteenth century, was probably written between 1769 and 1780, when he returned to France. In 1783 he returned to the United States, when he became the French consul at New York. He remained there until 1790, when he returned to France for the last time. For a brief and convenient bibliography see the Dictionary of American Biography, iv, 544. The Hugh C. Wallace Library contains a lengthy unpublished manuscript of Creve- cceur which merits publication.

He states without reserve his failures and his disillusionments. Instead of the America that he expected: pure, charitable, friendly and in a state of nature, he found merely a country corrupt, unworthy of its great reputation for morality, selfish and hostile to foreigners. As M. Fay concludes: "He lost his time, his hopes, his ideals, his money, his health, and his respect for humanity." Copy: NYPL (* DM). Dessaulles, Louis A.

Barnum, became his manager: the curious means by which Ulmann undertook to promote the concerts of Herz fill many amusing pages. Herz visited Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Charleston, New Orleans, and Mobile. Herz has many reflections on music and musicians in the United States, but his observations were not confined to this subject. The American press, religion, and slavery greatly in- terested him. He travelled to California, to Mexico, Chile and Peru; these latter experiences were to have been related in a second volume, which was evidently never completed. Copies: NYPL (ILD); LC; BN.

The "discovery" of this tra% - eller is due to the efforts of Dr. Maurice Chazin who found, in a private library in Belgium, a voluminous file of his letters from America. Dr. Chazin is now preparing a study on Houzeau with selections from his correspondence. He was a Belgian savant and "libre-penseur" who came to the United States in 1857 and remained until 1876, when he returned to Brussels to become director of the Observatory there. During his residence here he con- tributed to the Belgian press many literary and scientific articles. He was a forceful advocate of the Unionist cause during the Civil War. At the close of the war he founded and directed in New Orleans, La Tribune, one of the first and most successful of negro jour- nals. His unpublished correspondence contains many comments upon American politics and social life — and reveal Houzeau as an interesting and often original observer. La terreur blanche au Texas.

From many of his French friends, who were liberals and sympathetic to the United States, he had secured such excellent reports that when he actually visited the country he was shocked. He could explain Chateaubriand's admiration only by the fact that when Chateaubriand visited America there were still living 52 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY Jacquemoxt, Victor, continued many of the great figures of the American Revolution, but these men were aristocrats who had received an English education. These men are now dead, sighed Jacquemont. He found that bankruptcy was the quick- est way to wealth and called it the great national vice. He found in America a uniform and monotonous life, a servile copying of European customs, and an absolute lack of art and poetry, even when offered in their simplest forms.

Jay, who later became a distinguished litterateur and a member of the French Academy, was in the United States from 1795 to 1802. To escape the Terror he sought refuge in Boston, where, with the Cardinal de Cheverus and the Due d'Orleans, he is said to have started a French newspaper. Jay returned to France in 1802 and joined the ministry of Napoleon, for whom he translated English newspapers. His American ex- periences are the subject of articles contributed to Le Nouveau Journal des Voyages (see Bionraphie nouvellc des contemporains, 1823, ix, 386-389) and to the Bibliothcque americaine (see entry under Jay in the Addenda of this bibliography). Jay was known in France as an admirer of American institutions (see Bibliographie Catholique, 1866, xxxi, 177-182). Dr. Chazin is at present engaged in a study of Jay's career.

An adequate summary of Kalb's career will be found in the Dictionary of American Biography. It should simply be noted here that although Kalb was born in what is now Bavaria he early in life went to France and identified himself with things French. Kapp has demonstrated that his title of baron was a title bestowed by himself to aid in his military advancement. In January, 1768, he arrived in Philadelphia on a secret mission of observation for the French government; he travelled in America until the following April when he sailed from Xew York for France. His views were those of a calm and intelligent observer; he predicted that the colonies would gain their independence, but that they were little inclined to accept the aid of foreign powers. He was later instrumental in bringing Lafay- ette to America; he served with distinction until he was killed at the battle of Camden, August 19, 1780.

Kowalski, Henri. A travers l'Amerique. Impressions d'un musicien. Paris: Lachaud, 1872. xi, 268 p. in-8. 883 This book is of more than ordinary interest because the author was a musician as well as an intelligent observer of American life. He first arrived in New York in October, 1869. He estimated that a customs inspector ought to be able to earn one hundred thousand dollars in five years. He approved enthusiastically of American barber shops and American drinks. He found that no American pianist could raise himself above an honest mediocrity; in America there were no composers, but there were many good players. He found the public admiring Ole Bull, the Swedish vio- linist, and admiring his false notes as well as his true ones. His heroism during a fire on a boat has gained him more credit in America than all of his double chords. He found that the country was being exploited by German and Italian artists. He praised the Stein- way pianos and American minstrels. In his opinion the Nezv York Times was the best newspaper in exist- ence. Kowalski gave concerts in Boston, New York, Albany, Buffalo. Washington, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Chicago, and Milwaukee. Copies: NYPL (IAG p.v.186, no.3); LC; BN. L * * *, George de. See Bellemare, Eugene Louis Gabriel de. Impressions de voy- ages. . .

Gottschalk in the Journal of modern history, v. 2, 1930, p. 281-287; Professor Gottschalk has in preparation a volume of unpublished Lafayette letters. The biographies of Lafayette by Charlemagne Tower, Brand Whitlock, and Etienne Charavay contain many letters by Lafayette; Chara- vay contains many letters not available elsewhere. The following list is intended to indicate the most important items which contain Lafayette's writings from or con- cerning the United States.

La Forest was a member of the French legation under Gerard and later under La Luzerne. He was made vice-consul of France at Savannah on August 20, 1783, and after June 22, 1785, was in charge of the affairs of the office of consul general. He formally re- placed Barbe-Marbois in this position, March 2, 1792. He was recalled by the order of November 17, 1792. He was again appointed consul general and made one of the commission with Fauchet, November 15, 1793.

He renounced his title and was known in the American army simply as Col. Armand. He generously spent the greater part of his fortune in equipping an independent cavalry corps. Despite his difficulties and his many wrangles with Congress his zeal for the Americans remained unabated. He left for France in February, 1781, and returned the fol- lowing August. He was finally given the rank of brigadier-general in 1783, although he had not ceased to demand an honorable rank from the time of his arrival. He returned to France in 1785 and for the following six years continued to correspond with Wash- ington, whom he greatly venerated. His published correspondence contains letters to Gen. Scott, Major- General Heath, and Hamilton, although the great bulk of the letters are addressed to Washington. To my knowledge, his letters represent the most curious and wonderful English ever written by a French traveller. Copy: NYPL (IAA). Lasteyrie du Saillant, Ferdinand de. Esquisses americaines.

Le Blanc was one of the commissioners appointed by the French government November 15, 1793; he became secretary of the legation. The first despatch signed by him is dated March 14, 1794. The last despatch from Philadelphia which was signed by Le Blanc was dated June 8, 1794; this was also signed by Fauchet. It expressed suspicions of La Forest. Le Blanc was sent back to Paris by Fauchet; he had arrived there by September, 1794, and stated the pur- pose of his journey in a letter to the Commissioner of Foreign Relations, Buchot.

The NYPL copy of this rare and interesting pam- phlet was given to John Bigelow by the author; Big- elow then sent it on to Bancroft, with the following holographic note, written on the inside of the cover, and dated at Paris, March 16, 1863: "The author of this brochure is the grandson of a friend of Franklin, of John Adams, of Mr Jefferson etc the first who shipped arms and munitions of war from France to America in our first revolution. He — the grandfather — was afterwards rewarded with a large tract of land in the North Western part of the State of Xew York which is still held by his grandson who presented me with this. It contains some anecdotes of Franklin which have I believe at least the merit of novelty and I send it to you in the hope at least of its reminding you of Yours very truly, John Bigelow." FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES 61 Le Ray de Chaumont, Vincent, continued The author of the pamphlet states that he spent the best twenty-five years of his life in New York State, which he left in 1833. For the interesting career of his father, James Donatien Le Ray de Chaumont, who was naturalized as an American citizen, see the article by the Rev. J. L. Tierney in Historical records and studies of the United States Catholic Historical Society, v. 15, 1921, p. 59-69, NYPL (IAA). The BN catalogue lists Souvenirs des £tats-Unis as the work of Leon Guillemin. This is, I believe, an error. I am unable to check back to the source of this con- fusion of identities, since the BN does not give the authority for its classification. Copy: NYPL (| IAG p.v.263, no. 4).

In 1815 Lesueur, then a scientist and artist of distinction, was employed by William Maclure, the American geologist, to spend two years in America in his service. Lesueur first arrived in the United States in May, 1816; he remained here until 1837. He first travelled widely in the East, especially in New York and Pennsylvania, and later in the West, along the Ohio, Wabash and Mississippi rivers. His large collection of some 1,600 drawings made while in the United States is now preserved in the Museum of Natural History at Havre. There have been several published studies of Lesueur; that of Hamy is good; that of Madame Loir is the best. The article by Waldo G. Leland, "The Lesueur collection of American sketches in the Museum of Natural History at Havre, Seine-Inferieure," in the Mississippi Valley historical rcvieiv, v. 10, 1923, p. 53-78, contains a biographical introduction and a description of many of the items of this vast collection.

It is a trenchant criticism of the writ- ings of the Abbe Robin on America; his criticism still possesses validity. He heaps ridicule upon the poor Abbe, who was indeed curiously gullible. He states that the Americans are so tolerant that they would have laughed at him had he told them his observations. 62 THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY Lettre ecrite a M. Garat. . ., continued He speaks of the duty of rendering justice to this new country which, in Europe, is more talked about than it is understood. He refutes some of the more curious statements of Robin, such as the statement that all the houses in Boston are built of wood and that they can be moved from place to place with the greatest ease. He concludes by asking: Is the first serious work about America to be written by a man who does not under- stand the language, who was there not longer than four months and who never stopped eight days in a single city ?

Longchamp has recently been revealed as the author of Asmodce d New-York (items 105 and 106 of this bibliography). After the first sheets containing these items had been printed I discovered in the Americana catalogue no. 55 of G. A. Baker and Co., of New York City (item 1188) a "presentation copy from the author" of the English translation. The book itself I did not see, for it had been sold, but I have implicit faith in the accuracy of the description by Mr. M. Harzof. Neither Lorenz nor the BN catalogue lists any items by Longchamp, but the discovery of this copy would seem to settle the question of the authorship. Hence items 105 and 106 of this bibliography should be cata- logued under this name. Since this discovery was made the Library of Con- gress has published a revised card for this item. There it is stated that Longchamp was "Ferdinand Long- champ." This is probable, since the English translation was published by Longchamp and Co., in New York. The city directory for 1864 reveals that this publisher was Ferdinand Longchamp. While this identification seems probable I have no information which would clearly confirm it. The signed copy sold by G. A. Baker and Co. carried the name of "J. D. Long- champ." Might this not have been a brother of the publisher? To further complicate the question, the NYPL copy of the English translation contains a pencil notation that the author was "Frederick Longchamp." Longchamp, J. D.

He prepared and presented a formal report of his in- vestigations for the French government; the above item contains his more personal notes and reflections. His travels in the United States were extensive; he journeyed from coast to coast, visiting the following principal cities: Xew York, Philadelphia, Xorfolk, Washington, Saratoga, Niagara, Chicago, Omaha, Og- den. Salt Lake City, San Francisco, and St. Louis. While in Xew York he was the guest of Hugh Max- well, who had known and entertained Jacquemont, La- fayette, and de Tocqueville.

Annual report. Washington, 1898. 8°. 1897, p. 569-679.) 1027 Mangourit had been a criminal judge in Rennes, the city of his birth. Having lost or having given up this post, he came to Paris and embarked upon a career as a publicist and journalist. He was at first subsidized by the Court and later was known as one of the Con- querors of the Bastille. As a reward for his revolu- tionary services he was made, March 2, 1792, consul at Charleston. He became embroiled in the Genet affair and when Genet was dismissed he was recalled to France. He reached Paris August 23, 1794, and has- tened to have printed his Memoire de Mangourit con- taining the addresses which he pretended had been made to him by the citizens of Charleston before he left. He was later charged with a study of the relations of France with Spain and the Two Sicilies. For a brief summary of his career see Turner, Correspondence of French Ministers, p. 930-932.

Important letter in La Decade Philosophique, Paris, of 30 Floreal, An V [May 19, 1797]. 1041 Marsillac may have had the collaboration of Volney in this criticism of American life. He had been a student of medicine at Montpellier and an officer in the French army. When he was converted to Quakerism he gave up his commission and acted as the spokesman and missionary of the Quakers in France. He later went to England and then visited the United States where he remained until 1798. I have seen unpublished mss. in the library of the Society of Friends in Lon- don, but this is his only published opinion of American life of which I find any record.

A Paris: De l'lmprimerie de Giguet et Michaud, An xi— (1802). 2 p.l., 331(1) p. 12°. 1073 In his preface the author states that he is aware that he is not writing a chapter or even a paragraph of world history, but he also feels that he is not writing a novel. He claims that the book was written in great haste: in less than three weeks, from memory, without notes. The truth is that Milfort was a hopeless liar; and as a result his book is one of the most interesting and curious books of French travel in America in the eighteenth century. He had lived among the Indians for more than twenty years as an agent of the Spanish government; and he later joined the service of the French government. His book is often hostile to the colonists. Certain descriptions of life among the In- dians and frontiersmen are interesting. But what con- fidence can be placed in a man who was capable of describing how he, in command of six thousand In- dians, had defeated George Rogers Clark and an army of ten thousand regulars!

In New York he found that the streets and pavements were like those of a third-class city in Russia. He is one of the few Frenchmen who have praised American food. He declared that in five minutes he ate a lunch that would have satisfied the most exacting gourmet. He was struck with the real politeness of the Americans and found that the cult of the dollar had been greatly exaggerated. He was amazed that the public servants in America should be so willing to serve the public. He regretted that the American people should so long have been at the mercy of poli- ticians, "a group of foxes organized to live at the ex- pense of the democratic ravens."

Par l'Auteur des Souvenirs des An- tilles. Paris: Gide fils, 1818. 2 v. 372; 408 p. in-8. 1083 This is one of the rarest and most valuable of the accounts of nineteenth-century French travellers in America. The first entry is dated Aug. 27, 1816, at Norfolk; volume one is entirely devoted to his American experiences; there is considerable material in volume two on Charleston and South Carolina. Montlezun visited Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe; he travelled through and describes the following places: Norfolk, Baltimore, Washington, Fredericksburg, Montpelier, Monticello, Philadelphia, Trenton, New York, New Orleans, and Charleston. Montlezun was a Parisian and an ultra-royalist, and the Americans and their manners are bitterly satirized; he viewed with ani- mosity the absence of Parisian comforts and luxuries in the United States and he could not tolerate the blunt and ready speech which he found everywhere. His book was attacked in France as an unwarranted misrepresentation of the Americans and the French refugees. For a contemporary review see The Monthly Revierv, London, 1819, v. 88, p. 504-509.

Mims has given a very adequate bio- graphical sketch of Moreau de Saint-Mery in his intro- duction to item 1113. It deserves a brief resume. Moreau de Saint-Mery (1750-1819) was born at Port Royal, Martinique, and educated in Paris. He returned and worked on his monumental collection of the laws and constitutions of the French West Indies until he was called to Paris to assist in colonial administration. He was prominent in scientific, historical and, later, political groups. Having incurred the hostility of the more lawless elements in Paris he was savagely attacked and almost killed by a mob in July, 1792. He escaped Robespierre and the guillotine and sailed with his fam- ily from Havre in November, 1793; they did not arrive in Norfolk until March 8, 1794. He came to Xew York and secured employment as a shipping clerk until he met de la Roche: with the latter he opened a bookstore and printing press in Philadelphia. From October, 1794 to August, 1798 he remained in Philadelphia; after which he returned to France. He was, during his residence in Philadelphia, an important printer and was actively associated with various mem- bers of the American Philosophical Society. His book- shop was a center for many of the distinguished French emigres: Yolney, Talleyrand, La Rochefoucauld-Lian- court, de Xoailles, Demeunier and the due d'Orleans (the future Louis Philippe). Moreau's last days in the United States were embittered by the general hostility shown against foreigners. The writings of Moreau on the United States deserve the close attention of the student. He was a close observer, a historian, a politician, and a savant. He was more frank, profound and interesting than the better-known La Rochefoucauld-Liancourt, who used Moreau's manuscript with great profit.

Orbigny, Alcide Dessalines d\ I am not convinced that d'Orbigny ever actually travelled in any part of what is now the L T nited States. A letter of d'Orbigny recently communicated to me by Dr. Maurice Chazin makes his visit seem improbable. A close reading of his revised book (item 1146) does not yield conclusive evidence. It is clear, however, that he does borrow very frequently from French trav- ellers in the L'nited States, whose accounts are not conveniently available at the present time, such as Derbec, whose letters from California were printed in Le Journal des Dcbats during 1850 and 1851. The materials that are appropriated from other authors are well selected and give a value to his book.

It is to be regretted that Otto did not publish an extended study of American life as he had observed it from 1779 to 1792 while acting in various diplomatic capacities for the French government. He was spoken of as a man notable for his diplomatic ability, his remarkable learning and sterling integrity. Professor James Alton James has already demonstrated how im- portant was Otto's judgment in helping to prevent war between the United States and France from 1795 to 1800. Professor James makes mention of Otto and publishes excerpts from his diplomatic reports, which reveal him to have been a man of great sympathy and perspicacity. For some accounts of his missions here see the references to Doniol, Turner, and James. It is to be hoped that some scholar will make a more detailed study of Otto, especially since copies of his reports are now available in the Library of Congress.

Pavie was born in 1811 at Angers, probably the son of a printer and bookseller. He travelled widely in the United States, South America, and the Orient. He published several volumes of travels and short stories, including translations from Oriental languages. From 1852 to 1857 he taught Sanscrit language and literature at the College de France. At the age of eighteen he travelled in the United States. An interesting study might be made of the influence of Chateaubriand upon Pavie. As a youth he was enchanted by all that was distant; he loved the sea and was wont to sit upon a rock by the water and weep as he contemplated the horizon. He was weighed down by a profound melan- choly. In his preface he states: "J'offre au public ces pages incoherentes, ce desordre d'un cerveau melan- cholique et souffrant" and speaks wistfully of the wild and savage land where "j'ai passe les plus beaux jours de ma jeunesse, au milieu de tout ce que demande en soupirant une jeune tete malade de desirs." The author vouches for the authenticity of most of that which he describes, although he admits that some incidents were not actually witnessed, but are "prob- able." His travels in the United States were extensive, as a list of the more important localities which he treats indicates: New York, Albany, Schenectady, Syra- cuse, Oswego, Rochester. Buffalo, Niagara, Saratoga, New Haven, Newport, Providence, Boston, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Baltimore. Washington, Annapolis, Har- risburg, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Louisville, Illinois, Louisiana, Red River, Texas, New Orleans. The Nouvelle biographic generate speaks of Pavie's Voyage aux Etats-i'nis et an Canada as published in 6 vol. in-8 in 1827 while Yapereau in his Dictionnaire nniyersel des contemporains lists 2 vol. in-8, 1828-1833. It is probable that both are in error, for Pavie himself states that he was eighteen [\829] when he first began his travels in the United States. The only editions which I have found are the one-volume edition of 1832 and the two-volume edition of 1833. Souvenirs atlantiques. Voyage aux fitats- Unis et au Canada. Angers: Impr. de L.

At the beginning of November, 1796, he left Monterey and sailed westward across the Pacific, eventually going to China. From China he rounded the Cape of Good Hope. About December 21, 1797 he found himself off the coast of Cape Cod. Vol. ii, p. 256-285 describe his stay in New England. From his own narrative it appears that he remained in America almost two years, for it was not until the 9th of November, 1799, that he sailed for South America. During his residence here he visited and describes the following places: Saco, Me., Portsmouth, N. H., Boston, Cambridge, Charles- town and Hingham (which the author calls "Ing- ham"), Mass.

Louis Ange Pitou (1767-1846) was deported from France to Cayenne in 1797. In his first volume he gives a lengthy autobiographical sketch and an explana- tion of the causes of his exile. After several years in exile he was permitted to return to France. He re- turned by way of the United States in 1801 with six or seven companions. Twenty-five pages of his second volume tell the story of their travels in the United States. They first landed at Newport and there met a William Eins, a Quaker, who entertained them and supplied them with much of their information. Of Newport and the Quakers Pitou gives many interesting details. He came to understand that the government of the country was "republicain representatif et oligarchique" and that the elections were always tumultuous, because there were as many political groups as there were religious sects. Congressmen often had but one eye, the other having been gouged out in some contest. While Pitou was in Newport he was told that Jefferson, "l'ami du peuple et sur-tout des Frangais," was elected to succeed Adams, a man who had never forgiven the French people for having neglected him and feted Frank- lin years before when they were both in Paris. Pitou and his companions soon went on to New York, "cette nouvelle Tyr," where the churches were as numerous as the shops. There they found that the dead were more troublesome than the living, since the dead occupied many of the choicest spots in the city. In New York they made the friendship of M. Reyphyns, pastor of the Irish church. In general their impressions of the Americans were most favorable. If the Americans have some faults they have many virtues, they concluded. He defends the Americans against the charge of all-too-many bank- ruptcies and states that many thousands of French refugees can bear witness to American hospitality. Pitou ends his consideration of the Americans with a significant statement that: "the only thing necessary for the happiness of Americans is to know how to curb their desires."

Robin, with whom this author has been (and is) confused. See note under Claude C. Robin. Robin was, upon Franklin's recommendation, at- tached to the army of Rochambeau as chaplain where, in the regiment of the Vicomte de Noailles, he estab- lished a kind of welfare center. Bernard Fay describes his book as "rather ridiculous and very dull." This was substantially the opinion of his contemporaries. When the book was first published Garat gave it a trenchant review in Le Mercure de France. He said that Robin was too seasick to note the crossing. Boston to him seemed less a modern city than an ancient one; the customs in Boston reminded him of the ancient and austere simplicity of the first ages. For a time he thought that he was in Jerusalem, then at Athens. He says that in Boston the houses are all made of wood and can be moved about with great ease. He illustrated the hospitality of the Americans by remarking that the wife of the host frequently shared her bed with gentle- men guests. Vital statistics he gathered by studying tombstones. In the Mercure of March 29, 1783, the author was again attacked by an officer recently returned from America. He refutes the principal conclusions of Robin and states that the Americans are so tolerant that they would have laughed at the abbe had he told them his reflections. He concludes his letter thus: "Is the first serious work about America to be written by a man who does not understand the language, who was there no longer than four months, and who never stopped eight days in a single city?"

In Sabin and in the NYPL, LC and BM catalogues the abbe Robin is described as Claude C. Robin. These names, however, represent two different people. The error began, as I have been able to trace it, in a confusion of identity by J. M. Querard in his La France litteraire (1836), viii, 83. It has been constantly re- peated, with one very obscure exception. It is not possible, after reading the Nouveau voyage dans I'Amerique septentrionale (1782) and the Voyages dans I'interieur de la Louisiane (1807), to believe that they could have been written by the same author. Be- yond the difference in style, which is marked, is the approach to the materials. Claude C. Robin was a scholar, scientist and a well-known naturalist. The abbe Robin was a credulous traveller whose most sober conclusions were termed "ridiculous" by his contem- poraries. In the three volumes by Claude C. Robin there is no mention of any previous travels by him in the United States. Were he actually the abbe Robin of the earlier period it seems likely that he would have drawn contrasts between his earlier and his later travels or that he would have contrasted conditions in the northern states with those in Louisiana. On the basis of internal evidence I had reached the conclusion that the abbe Robin was not Claude C. Robin when I found a remark of A. L. Boimare sup- porting this view. Boimare settled in New Orleans in 1825 and probably had the opportunity of learning something about Claude C. Robin from people who had known him while he was there. Boimare published in the 1850's a brief bibliography of materials on Louisi- ana history, but this was virtually unknown until its republication in 1917. He states that there has been a confusion of identity. For his statement see Louisiana historical quarterly, v. 1, no. 2 (Sept., 1917), p. 59-60.

St. Maixent: Chez Laine, imprimeur- libraire, l'an u de la Republique franchise [1794?]. 2 p.l., 192 p., 1 1., plate. 12°. 1253 This is sufficiently rare to make it difficult to find even imperfect copies. The W. L. Clements Library' owns what seems to be a complete copy; I am indebted to Dr. Randolph G. Adams for this detailed description. The first leaf is a general title-page covering both anecdotes; it contains neither author nor imprint. This is followed by a plate: the engraving of a touching scene with the legend "ah Mamma Mamma! je ne le reverrai plus." The title-page for the first anecdote then follows with the name of the author, publisher, and the date. "A mes lecteurs," p. [l]-2; "Aux Americains," p. 3-4; "A Miss Nancy," p. 5-7; "Adraste et Nancy...," p. [9]-143. Page [145] con- tains the title of the second anecdote. It is followed by: "Preface," p. [147]-149; "Tonga et Peggy Nyre- don...," p. 151-192; "Errata," 1 p. at end. The author is said to have been an officer in the marine who fought in the War of the Revolution during 1779 and 1780.

Paris: Au depot central de librairie [etc.], 1835. 2 v. xiv, 355; 359 p. in-8. 1291 The author was a royalist, an aristocrat, and an ardent Catholic, as was the comte O'Mahony, to whom the letters were addressed and who contributed the important preface to the two volumes. The letters are seventeen in number and are dated from January IS, 1832, to August 15, 1833. Some of them were first published in the Invariable at Fribourg, Switzerland. According to the author and to the comte O'Mahony France stupidly contributed to the establishment of a democratic and republican United States, an illusion that had already endured some fifty years. But during that time there have been "only superficial tales and falsehoods, published by travellers who were blind or by publicists who were hypocrites." The author at- tempts to give a complete picture of American life, institutions, and government and in order to document his attacks he skillfully draws many of his materials from American newspapers; in the words of the preface: "...alors il suffit d'enregistrer les aveux naifs qui leur echappent et dont leurs innombrables journaux se font les depositaires, pour presenter, de leur caractere national, de leurs moeurs, de leur gou- vernement, une satire plus sanglante que personne n'au- rait ose le faire d'apres ses propres impressions..." and from this novel method the conclusion is: "II en est resulte pour cet ouvrage purement historique. . .le plus haut degre d'authenticite qu'aucune histoire ait jamais presente..." Much the same method was adopted by H. L. Mencken almost a century later when he created an Americana section of the American Mercury. I think the limitations of such sources are obvious to the modern reader, yet these two volumes are among the really valuable accounts of America in the early years of the nineteenth century. Saint-Victor came to the United States shortly before de Tocqueville sailed back to France and was here during the same period as was Michel Chevalier; it is interesting to compare the ob- servations and conclusions of these three observers.

Saugrain de Vigni, Antoine Francois. Saugrain (1763-1820), born of a long line of printers and booksellers, received a thorough scientific education before coming to America where he entered the service of the King of Spain in mineralogical investigations. He returned to France but was never able to escape the lure of the wilderness. Brissot de Warville says FRENCH TRAVELLERS IN THE UNITED STATES 85 that Saugrain returned to the United States in 1787 with a M. Piquet, a botanist and philosopher. Together they explored Kentucky and parts of the Ohio Valley, studying botany and seeking sites for French colonies. Saugrain was interested in mining and found much iron, lead, copper, and silver. Wherever he was he seemed to establish a small furnace and made ther- mometers and barometers, which he sold. Saugrain was appointed a doctor in the army by Jefferson; he later settled in St. Louis, where he was the first doctor to employ vaccination. His unpublished manuscripts have been partly printed in several recent articles and pamphlets. See under Byars, William Vincent; Dan- dridge, N. P. Sauniere, Paul.

This book is a detailed history of the movement in France which resulted in the formation of the Societe de colonisation europeo-ameri- caine au Texas and of Victor Considerant's colony at Reunion. Savardan was the doctor of the colony. He sailed from Le Havre February 28, 1855 and came back to France at the end of October, 1857. Having once determined to return to France, he travelled overland to New York to take passage. Leaving Re- union he travelled by the following route: Fort Smith, Napoleon, Cairo, Niagara Falls, New York. Savardan attempts to give a complete picture of the colony in Texas, for which it is of the greatest value. I It- makes interesting observations on other parts of Texas and on the Indians.

Mercein, printers, 1815. 2 v. xiii, 377; 360 p. 8°. 1315 Simond was born in France and came to the United States about 1789 and engaged in the shipping busi- ness. He states that during the war, beginning in 1793, he owned twenty-four American vessels: together more than 5,000 tons. He and his wife, an Englishwoman, went to England in December, 1809. A few friends persuaded him to publish the journal of his English tour and residence; before this time he had published nothing. I have discovered no single book or pamphlet entirely devoted to the United States by this interesting author. His book on England and Scotland contains scattered references to the United States, for he often compares English and American conditions. In his discussion of Liverpool there is a discussion of Ameri- can commerce (i, 243-253). The above journal was first written in English, was published in New York and London in 1815, republished with additional ma- terial in Edinburgh in 1817; a French edition was pub- lished in Paris in the same year. These various editions are available in the NYPL and the LC. It is to be regretted that Simond never wrote a volume on the United States; it is probable that it would have been of considerable interest. Copies: NYPL (CBD); LC. Simonin, Louis Laurent.

The author prints as an appendix to this volume four letters written by Raousset-Boulbon from San Francisco from April 16, 1853 to January 25, 1854. Raousset-Boulbon was a romantic figure. He was in distress in Paris when news of the California gold rush first came to the French public. He responded at once and sailed for California with borrowed money. He arrived in San Francisco in 1850, but when in the course of several years even San Francisco began to take on aspects of civilization Raousset-Boulbon moved to Sonora. There he sought to exercise his newly- discovered political genius by attempting to establish a French colony. His melancholy failure had even a touch of grandeur about it. He was executed by the Mexican authorities, Aug. 12, 1854. Copies: NYPL (AN); LC; BN. Souvenirs d'Amerique et de France, par une creole [Mme. Frederic Allainj.

Certainly we have no evidence of a more curious traveller than this French-Belgian journalist who might have just stepped out of a comic opera to enter the United States, where he arrived in 1853 at New York City. According to his autobiographical account he was born at Roanne, France, in 1810. He worked in a bank, then taught school, later went into industry, and finally into the insurance business. Possibly it was an insur- ance scandal that sent him into journalism. He went to Brussels in the early 1850's and there he gained the reputation of an eccentric and the title of "le respectable maniaque." Coming to New York in 1853, he sought to visit his mother and brother and to warn the United States against the Pope and the plots of the Jesuits. In New York City on Jan. 28, 1854 he published the first number of L'Anti-Pape, a newspaper in folio, written, published, and sold by himself. This French newspaper struggled through seven issues, the last appearing May 14 of the same year. This was followed by seven num- bers of Le Petit Figaro (gr. in-4), the first appearing June 25, 1854. Everywhere he thought that he was followed by "the bloodhounds of the Jesuits." He was surrounded by spies and even shopkeepers tried to starve him by refusing to sell him food. In 1855 he left "la terre classique du puff, du hombugg et du chantage" and returned to Brussels where he was followed by the implacable hatred of his enemies. During the six years that followed he said that he wrote ten thousand lines of verse and between 25 to 30 acts of his "re- forming dramas." He could not sell his plays; and his enemies prevented his selling a single copy of his books. He had all his literary productions carefully registered at the Hotel de Ville, where Dr. Maurice Chazin first found them, and to this precaution he owes his tem- porary success in his great struggle against oblivion. From 1857 to 1861 he published at Brussels, Crispin, revue critique et litteraire, a weekly for which he wrote all the articles, signing them with different names. Crispin in 1861 became La Nouvelle Menipee, journal satire en vers, which survived from January 15 to May 10, 1861. His writings were heavy and incredibly dull and we can sympathize with the newspaper editor who said that if he printed the stuff that Tapon-Foujas turned out he would lose five thousand subscribers in a month. His writings are chiefly based on his experi- ences in New York, especially in journalistic circles there. Poor Tapon-Foujas could never understand why pensions, decorations and membership in the Academy were denied him. Les lettres americaines, correspondance uni- verselle.

It is not clear why he came to America in 1797 nor can the exact date of his arrival be established. He was intimate with the vicomte de Noailles, through whom he was introduced to the wealthy Bingham family of Philadelphia. He succeeded in marrying the daughter, Maria Mathilda Bingham in April, 1799. The family became enraged; the couple separated in June and in July a cash settlement of £5,000 sterling and an annual "rente" of £500 persuaded the comte de Tilly to leave America in July, when he sailed for England.

It contains valuable manuscript notes made by Ch. van Hulthem, to whom this copy was presented at The Hague, March 1, 1822. From these notes we learn that the voyage was made during 1802-1805, that the pamphlet was privately printed and never offered for sale, and that Madame ***** was, at the time of the voyage, Mile, van Uitenhage de Mist, who later married General De Howen and that it was while he was in garrison at Namur that this little item was printed.

The original manuscript carries the title: "Voyage au continent americain par un fran^ois en 1777 et reflexions philosophiques sur ces nouveaux republicans." Only selections from the early part of the manuscript have been published; this was intended to be the first article of a series, but the review itself ceased publication before the second installment was printed. This anonymous trav- eller arrived in Charlestown in June, 1777 and later went to Philadelphia. He gives interesting and valu- able observations on the negroes, the Quakers, re- ligion, commerce, and social customs. It is to be hoped that this manuscript will find publication in full.

Fauteux who supplied me with the name of the author. The author, it would appear, used several forms of her name. She was Madame Frederick Allain, who wrote Souvenirs a" ' Amcrique et de France (item 1353). Tinker was not able to locate a copy of New-York et Paris; the autographed copy belonging to M. Fauteux is the only copy I have been able to find. A brief biographical sketch of Madame Allain will be found in Tinker's Les Merits. . . , p. 13-14. Copy: AF (autographed copy). Adams, Henry.

(American his- torical review. New York, 1895. 8°. v. 1, p. 51- 69.) 1498 This is the story of one of the most curious and amusing episodes in American history of the early nineteenth century. Crillon was really one Soubiran who was later described by the French police as "an intriguer of the first order, who, being son of a gold- smith of Lectoure, has successively played the roles of Colonel, Consul, Ambassador, and Chevalier of all the Orders." He became associated with John Henry, a political blackmailer, and together they went to Wash- ington in 1812. They deceived officials there, including the French ambassador, and left with a large sum of money. Adams publishes several documents by Sou- biran on his "mission" as well as a letter from Serurier and other documents. Copy: NYPL (IAA). Adet, Pierre Auguste. A copy of his Rapport. . .

After the first sheets of this bibliography had been Srinted I learned from Mr. Edward L. Tinker that Ime. Allain was the Creole who wrote Souvenirs d'Amerique et de France. Hence item 1353 should be catalogued under Allain. The author employed several forms of her name. See also Acquin-Allain, Helene d'. Alliot, Paul.

Feutray, 1803.) 8 p. 4°. 1501 There is a seemingly unique copy of this interesting pamphlet in LC, by whose kindness I am enabled to give these details concerning it. This memorial de- scribes the cruel and illegal imprisonment of Alliot by the Spanish authorities for no other cause than the jealousy of rival doctors. The author relates his pro- fessional career and his knowledge of medicine. The author evidently completed it in prison for it is signed: Aux prisons de Pontaniou. a Lorient, ce 26 Messidor an onze [15 July 1803]. It has no title-page, but the first page carries the heading as above described. The author sent it to Jefferson together with another manu- script, his historical and political reflections on Louisi- ana. Alliot's letter to Jefferson is dated April 14, 1804, from New York. The pamphlet is now to be found in the Thomas Tefferson Papers, Feb. 28 - March 17, 1801, folios 18861-18864. Copy: LC. Historical and political reflections on Louisi- ana. By Paul Alliot.

Alliot was a physician in New Orleans when he was de- ported to France, where he was imprisoned at Lorient until finally released by the French government. He then returned to New York where he presented these reflections to President Jefferson. The notes contain Alliot's interesting letter to Tefferson dated April 14, 1804 (p. 145-149).

While I have not attempted to include unpublished manuscripts in this bibliography I cannot refrain from mentioning two unpublished documents which do much to explain Cazeau's curious pamphlet (item 375). Both are letters written by Cazeau to the president of the Continental Congress: one written May 31, 1783, and the other January 12, 1785. They are in the Library of Congress in the Papers of the Continental Congress, 78, vi, 183 and 239-250.

Chasles was, like Laboulaye, one of the gifted Frenchmen who, by their lectures and writings, did much to interpret nineteenth-century America to France. But he was never, I regret to state, in the United States. Like Laboulaye he talked of coming to America, but never came. This point was not established until after the early pages of this bibliography which con- tained items 398 to 401 had been printed. While those items would occupy a conspicuous place in any com- pilation of works relating to Franco-American relations they have no place in a bibliography confined to French travellers. It is a matter for interesting specu- lation that the two French writers, Laboulaye and Chasles, who admittedly possessed a wide and pro- found appreciation of the United States (greater than that of many of their travelled contemporaries), were never in America.

There he has shown that Palisot de Beauvois is probably the author. He came to Philadelphia from Santo Domingo in 1791 and re- mained there until 1793. He again returned to the United States in 1793 and remained until 1798. While in the United States during this second visit he travelled widely gathering information on the fur trade, agri- culture, and natural history. Despite the publication of M. Hazard's article con- fusion has persisted concerning this book. The NYPL card bears the notation: "The first edition of Chateau- briand's Atala, which evidently suggested this imitation, appeared in Paris in 1801." But the facts are otherwise. If either is an imitation, it is Chateaubriand who has copied Oderahi. M. Hazard has carefully examined the chronology. The date of the first appearance of Oderahi is not known, but it was included -as a part of a collection, Veillees americaines, of which the second edition was published in Paris in 1796. Due to the success which greeted Atala it was published separately in 1801. M. Hazard states that the BN copy of Oderahi bears the manuscript notation: 25 thermidor an ix [August 13, 1801].

Pichon was the French charge d'affaires in Wash- ington before the arrival of Turreau as minister in 1804. His attitude was frequently sympathetic toward the American government and mildly hostile toward that of France. For this reason he was removed and retired to private life. Henry Adams quotes several excerpts from his unpublished reports to the French govern- ment and from 1801 to 1803 makes frequent use of materials supplied by Pichon. See tinder Adams, Henry.

In 1811 Serurier succeeded Turreau as French minister to the United States. Henry Adams has made extensive use of his unpublished diplomatic corre- spondence in the archives of the French government. He sometimes quotes considerable excerpts from them. D. C. Haskell has brought to my attention the fact that Adams has made a serious mistake in calling the French minister "Jean Matthieu Philibert Serurier." The individual of this name was a marechal in the French army and was never in the United States. It was his nephew, Louis Barbe Charles Serurier, who was the minister. Other writers, following Adams, have repeated this mistake. See under Adams, Henry. Soubiran. See under Adams, Henry. Soulie, Maurice.

French Travellers in the United States 1765-1932 Being : A Supplement to a Bibliography by Frank Monaghan By Samuel J. Marino Head Librarian McNeese State College, La. French Travellers in the United States 1765-1932 Being: A Supplement to a Bibliography by Frank Monaghan* By Samuel J. Marino The compiler initiated this project with the thought in mind of revising the original Monaghan list. Two things changed the plan: one, the omissions in Monaghan were almost nil and the additions were not many; two, the reprint edition** planned for publication after May 1, 1959 (as Penny Book 20, G. K. Hall & Company, Boston, Massachusetts). Therefore, the solu- tion is this list of the work to date. It should be noted that the list does not claim completeness. Researchers are advised to check the University of Virginia where a number of theses and dissertations have been written on the French in America, "including," writes Reference Libra- rian Harvey Deal, "French travelers to this country during the period 1775-80 and 1860-1955," [and] "the Library has a good collection of travel narratives written by French visitors to this country since the end of the Second World War."

Because of its exhaustiveness and its descriptive comments, the Monaghan list has been an indispensable aid to scholars in the field of French- Americana. ** By special arrangement with the G. K.

"Actually this translation is a combination of both editions because the few passages deleted by Bayard in the prepara- tion of his second edition have been indicated and included at the bottom of the page." Beaumont, Gustave de la Bonniniere de. Marie, or Slavery in the United States. Translated by Barbara Chapman. Introduction by Alvis L. Tinnin. Stanford University Press, 1958. 5 Translation of Monaghan 159. Gustave de Beaumont accompanied Tocque- ville on his travels in this country to study American penal system for the government of Louis Philippe. As a novel, this story of the tragic love of a French traveler in the United States for a "woman of color" belongs to the romantic tradition of Cha- teaubriand and Mme. de Stael.
