Pourquoi, apres sa mort en 1829, a-t-il fallu attendre jusqu'en 1881 pour poser la premiere pierre de cet etablissement ? Ce livre, fruit de trois ans de recherches dans les archives, apporte des reponses tres documentees, car la vie de Janson de Sailly, et celle de son epouse, sont bien differentes de ce qui se dit generalement a leur sujet.Demory1747491BOOK9910148669503321Alexandre Janson.
