Two of the most influential Tarot books in French are as follows:
Joseph Maxwell: "Le tarot : le symbole, les arcanes, la divination", Félix Alcan, 1933.
Gérard van Rijnberk: "Le tarot: histoire, iconographie, ésotérisme", Derain, 1947.
Both include highly detailed, annotated bibliographies, and along with Paul Marteau's "Tarot de Marseille", were reprinted in the last 30 years or so.
Thanks for the recommendation of Maxwell. I see it has been discussed here over the years. First editions and the reprint are available at reasonable prices.
I have van Rijnberk; I agree it is a very important source in French Tarotism.
