Catalogue des Ouvrages du Fonds Francais 1601-1850

This work provides a catalogue of French works written between 1601 and 1850 that are in the Founders Library, University of Wales, Lampeter. In total these number approximately 1500 titles or 2000 volumes. The catalogue is preceeded by an introduction outlining the history of the library and providing an overview of the collection of French books. The collection is considered important because of its size, the broad range of fields of interest contained within it, the inaccessibility of many titles in modern editions, and the intrinsic bibliographical or cultural importance of many of the individual items.
