Broussonet, Pierre Marie Auguste (1761-1807)

Instruction sur la culture des navets, sur la
manière de les conserver et sur les moyens, de les
rendre propres à la nourriture des bestiaux. Paris,
Impr. royale, 1785. 23 p. (Brit. Mus.; Bib. Nat.
Paris)

Published anonymously. Brit. Mus. Cat.
enters under title, but Cat. Bib. Nat. Paris,
20:168, credits it to Broussonet. No attribution 
for the 2d ed., 1803, has been found,
but it has an introductory paragraph stating
that it is a new edition of the work of similar 
title that was published by royal order
in 1786, the latter being undoubtedly Broussonet's 
"Instruction". As it has not been
possible to see a copy of the 1785 pamphlet,
one cannot toll whether the later ed. is
greatly revised, or merely a reissue of
the earlier one. (MFW)
