(Gille de Rom[m]e) Le mirouer du regime et gouvernement des princes. Small in-folio full cream calf, spine with 5 nerves, title in brown ink in a box "de Romme / Régime des Princes", leather laces closing the binding. A restoration to the second plate. Impr. Paris Guillaume Eustace libraire du Roy July 31, 1517. Printed in gothic type, one column of 39 lines, comments in the margin. Fresh interior. Letters. 3 woodcuts, the first one full page representing a king, a prince and a bishop, and the symbol of the bookseller; the second one a prince surrounded by his advisors illustrates the beginning of the first chapter, the third one on the verso of the last leaf takes up the first illustration with the mention "Pour Guille Eustace / Libraire du Roy ". Work wrongly attributed to Gille de Rome (indicated in the colophon) by confusion with his De regimine principum. It is a translation by the Carmelite Jean Golein of the anonymous Liber de informatione principum, probably written by a Dominican.
