PROCÉDURE CRIMINELLE, instruite au Châtelet de Paris, sur la dénonciation des faits arrivés à Versailles dans la journée du 6 octobre 1789. Paris, Baudoin, 1790. 2 volumes in-8, shagreened basane, ornate smooth spine, red and green titles, marbled edges (period binding). First edition, printed by order of the Assemblée nationale. Account of one of the last criminal proceedings of the Ancien Régime, relating to the revolutionary days of October 5 and 6, 1789: the sumptuous banquet organized at the Opéra Royal on October 1 by the king's bodyguards, to celebrate the arrival of the Flanders regiment, aroused the anger of the starving people, who marched on Versailles to demand bread. Following these events, the royal family left Versailles for Paris. A pleasant, well-bound copy. Covers restored.
