Catalogue Note
Belle lettre, très respectueuse, de l'éditeur Hetzel à propos de l'impression de la Légende des Siècles, dans laquelle l'éditeur annonce un tirage de 6 000 exemplaires. "Vous êtes plus gâté que vous ne croyez sur les soins qu'on prend de vos livres et arriverez à la minutie du mieux, qui est presque l'ennemi du bien".
