Hard cover. Condizione: Like New. Condizione sovraccoperta: No Dustjacket as Issued. First edition. DUBOIS DE SALIGNY (1809â??1888). Jean Pierre Isidore Alphonse Dubois, French diplomat in the Republic of Texas, son of Jean Baptiste Isidore and Marie Louise Rose (Bertrand) Dubois, was born on April 8, 1809, in Caen, Normandy, France. He entered on a diplomatic career in 1831 and became, successively, secretary of the French legations in Hanover, Greece, and the United States. While at this last post he was instructed by the French government to go to Texas to investigate the conditions and prospects of the new republic. During this mission in the spring of 1839 he visited Galveston, Houston, and the coastal area as far west as Matagorda. His reports to the French foreign minister influenced the French government to recognize Texas in a treaty of friendship, navigation, and commerce.
