Soft cover. 1st Edition. 8vo., (8 4/8 x 5 2/8 inches). Half-title. Folding engraved view-plan of Le Champ d'Asile (title-page creased, some light spotting, edges a bit frayed). Original blue vinegar marbled paper wrappers covered by contemporary brown paper, title in manuscript on the front cover and spine (chipped at edges with… minor loss); preserved in a moderd cloth clamshell box. First edition of an "indispensable source and by far the best" of the four earliest accounts (one fictional) of the short-lived Bonapartist colony of Champ d'Asile, established and dispersed within six months in 1819. Conceived by the exiled Napoleonic general Charles F.A. Lallemand, ostensibly as a place for defeated Napoleonic veterans to begin new lives (but in fact with a hazy military agenda, cf. Streeter, Bibliography of Texas, I, pp. 58-59), the illegal settlement was established on land in the disputed border area between Louisiana and Texas which the United States and Spain, desperate to avoid an armed confrontation, had finally declared a "Neutral Ground" in 1806. Spanish troops were soon dispatched to evict the settlers, while US pressure forced another French colony, under the pirate Jean Lafitte, to leave Galveston. By 1819 the Adams-Onis Treaty finally abolished the neutral zone, establishing the Sabine River as the border between New Spain and the United States. Meanwhile the starving Champ d'Asile settlers had been forced to retreat to New Orléans. Thus the Champ d'Asile colony precipitated a diplomatic resolution of a potentially inflammatory border dispute. Its mark on popular literature and art in France were equally far-reaching. During its brief existence, and although it at no point included more than 100 settlers and in all may have numbered 160 (including 4 women and 4 children, according to the list of "Cohorts" on pp. 51-57), the Champ d'Asile inflamed the imaginations of the French and encouraged nostalgia for the empire. Soon after their return, ex-colonists began publishing accounts of their travails (in part to elicit charitable support), and songs, engravings and lithographs mushroomed; images of the Champ d'Asile soon appeared on wallpaper and on labels to liqueur bottles. The theme remained persistent in French literature throughout the 19th century and even resurfaced in a novel of the 1980s. Of the four full-length books, including the fictionalized 'L'Héroïne du Texas', published in 1819-1820, the present account "is the only one. to give a brief but more or less consecutive account of the founding of the colony, the life there, the retreat to Galveston, and the dispersal of the colonists to the four winds" (Streeter). Dedicated to the subscribers to a charitable fund for the refugee colonists, it consists of the separate diaries of Hartmann and Millard, a list of the colonists, and Lallemand's deceptively peaceful manifesto (pp. 44-48), with a folding plate showing the buildings and layout of Champ d'Asile. The anonymous authors of both 'L'Héroïne' and the 1820 'Le Champ d'Asile au Texas' freely plagiarized Hartmann and Millard's narrative. Rare, especially in original wrappers. Streeter Texas, 1069; Sabin 30706; Howes H-270; Graff 2487; Jenkins Basic Texas Books, 85.
