STEVENSON, ROBERT LOUIS. Autograph manuscript notes on the Reformation and John Calvin, n.p., n.d., 7 pages, 12mo & 8vo (some oblong), written in ink on rectos only, with an autograph manuscript cover sheet on monogrammed stationery headed "Calvin. Geneva.", all abound with calligraphic title-page and engraved portrait in small quarto-size emerald green morocco, gilt-lettered, t.e.g., green cloth case. Most of the notes, in French, derive from a single source cited simply by Stevenson as "Bunguier, 'Calvin,'" and include quotations from letters of Calvin, passages on his conception of Geneva as a Christian Commonwealth, and historical anecdotes.
