Stonehouse Catalogue:

Presentation copy from the Editor; inscribed, 'Monsieur Charles Dickens, Esq., in London. Hommage respectueux, Gustave Revilliod.' This work, first published in 1536, was suppressed by the Council of Geneva with such rigour, that, according to the new editor, not a single copy had escaped destruction. It is from the autograph manuscript of the author that the present reprint has been made, preceded by an Introduction.
