Le Livre Rouge: Ou Liste Des Pensions Secrettes, Sur Le Tresor Public (1790)

Le Livre Rouge, also known as the Red Book, is a historical document that was published in France in 1790. The book contains a list of secret pensions that were paid out of the public treasury. These pensions were granted to individuals who had rendered services to the government or to the king, or who were related to influential people in the court. The book caused a scandal when it was published, as it revealed the extent of corruption and favoritism in the French government. The Red Book is an important historical document that sheds light on the political and social conditions of France in the late 18th century. It is a valuable resource for historians and scholars studying the French Revolution and the Ancien R�����gime.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
