Alexis Eymery (1774 in Saintes - 1854 in Neuilly-sur-Seine) was a French writer and bookseller-publisher, one of the main publishers of educational books of the 19th century. Initially employed at the Ministry of War, he started his education bookselling business after losing his job. May 2, 1809, he formed, in association with the bookseller Pierre Blanchard, the company P. Blanchard et compagnie, which then became P. Blanchard and A. Eymery in 1811. The association was officially dissolved on May 4, 1812 and the two partners share the premises, A. Eymery keeping the address of 30, rue Mazarine. Patented bookseller the October 1, 1812, Eymery was declared bankrupt in February 1819. On July 24, 1815, he published the Dictionnaire des girouettes de Charrin , Tastu et Proisy d'Eppe , which listed all the betrayals of his contemporaries. The great success of this work led to it being republished in the first year. He then created, around 1824, a new publishing house in Brussels which he had managed from 1825 by Pierre-Denis-Charles Fruger and André-Georges Brunet, to whom he transferred his business in 1827. After leaving his bookshop in 1830, he began to write books for young people. Scarce matching two volume set of First Editions.
