BALZAC, H. de. Code des gens honnêtes. Paris: Librairie Nouvelle, 1855, 92 x 150 mm; 128 pp.; half-leather binding, spine missing. A preface note indicates that “This work by Mr. H. de Balzac was done in collaboration with Mr. Horace Raisson.” This book, one of Balzac's early works, was first published by Barba in 1825. It reveals the author's disdain for a society corrupted by money: various chapters discuss petty thefts – handkerchiefs, watches, bags, purses, pins; thefts in shops, cafes, restaurants…; various scams; and more or less forced contributions such as calls to the purse in the house of the Lord… Vicaire I,178
