First edition.
Book attributed to the politician Antoine-Joseph Thorillon (1742-?) Who, under the pseudonym of Tho. Mineau de La Mistringue self-proclaimed perpetual secretary of drinkers of Passy waters, leaves us with a singular book recounting real or fantasized episodes taking place around the fountains of mineral waters.
It is classified by Edmond de Goncourt in "The House of an artist" among the writers with the wild imagination: "Macedonia bizarre, where it is in turn question of the fairy Bellie, of the development of the memory thanks to the internal sense of the ashy substance, the game of crow, the advantages of celibacy, a passage of a convoy of galley slaves singing litanies of the Virgin, the distribution of the territorial tax ".
Book which we would have liked to prove that it inspired the Buveurs d'eau and Hydropathes of literary Boheme.
