(BOISGUILBERT, P. LE PESANT DE.)
Le détail de la France, sous le regne present. Augmentée en cette nouvelle Édition, de plusieurs Mémoires & Traitez, sur la même matiere.
No place (Rouen?), Année 1707. 2 volumes in 1. (2), 294 pp.; (2), 300 (misnumbered 302, 277-278 omitted in numbering) pp. 8vo. Contemporary green vellum, raised bands, red label with gilt lettering, red edges. Kress 2542; Goldsmiths 4429 & 4430; Einaudi 581; Mattioli 370; Carpenter VIII (9); INED, Pierre de Boisguilbert où la naissance de l'économie politique, i, p. 495 ff; Gerits, A., Le Détail de la France in 'Quaerendo', vol 16/3 (1986), pp. 198-207. One of at least 7 editions published in 1707. This is the edition normally found, without the rare supplement of 12 pages. The importance of this edition is that "Boisguilbert réunit dans cette édition, parue avant le 14 mars 1707, les plus importantes de ses oeuvres antérieures, manuscrites et imprimées, et y ajouta de nouveau textes" (Pierre de Boisguilbert où la naissance de l'économie politique, vol. i, p. 495 ff). These new texts are the following: "Traité du mérite et des lumières de ceux qu'on appelle Gens habiles dans la Finance, ou Grands Financiers" (pp. 164-183, vol. 1); "Sentence du Châtelet de Paris, qui fixe le prix du pain. Du sixième May 1649. De par le Roy, et Monsieur le Prévost de Paris, ou son Lieutenant Civil" (pp. 192-195, vol. 11). The "Détail de la France ..." contains minor changes, additions and corrections, the "Traité de la Nature, Culture, Commerce, .... " (pp. 184-294, vol. i) is a new text and the principal text by Boisguilbert "sur les Bleds"; the "Memoire, qui fait voir en Abrégé, que plus les Bleds sont à vil Prix, ..... (pp. 179-191, vol. ii) was published in 1704 "en deux feuilles" with a slightly different title; the "Causes de la Rareté de l'Argent, ...." (pp. 196-212, vol. ii) is published here for the first time; the "Dissertation de la Nature des Richesses, de l'Argent ....." (pp. 213-302, vol. ii) is published here for the first time. In the second half of the seventeenth century the great advance in economic theory and method had been concentrated mainly in England. The appearance of the first writings of Pierre de Boisguilbert, notably his Détail de la France (first published in 1695), can be taken as a sign that eventually, in the course of the eighteenth century, pre-eminence in political economy would pass to France - before subsequently being assumed by Scotland. As regards France, the title of the definitive edition of Boisguilbert's writings (1966) is well justified: Pierre de Boisguilbert: où la naissance de l'économie politique ...... Boisguilbert regarded the economic situation of France as one of disastrous decline and widespread poverty, and he began to study, with mounting passion, the causes and policies in the preceding decades which had brought this about. The depression seemed to have been specially severe in agriculture, which had suffered from Colbert's policy of favouring industrial development. Whether or not his alarming assessment of France's economic decline was correct, Boisguilbert, in seeking to analyse and establish the causes of what had happened, made general, theoretical and conceptual contributions of fundamental importance, including, among others, such monetary, or macro-economic, concepts, clearly though precisely formulated as: the propensity to consume or save, the velocity of circulation, the state of confidence, the expectations of businessmen, multiplying or cumulative effects, and, especially, the fundamental notion of equilibrium (Hutchison, T., Before Adam Smith. The Emergence of Political Economy 1662-1776, pp. 107-115). Boisguilbert was 'chiefly preoccupied with the problem of French fiscal policy and nearly as fact-minded as was Vauban, he differed from the latter not only in the much wider scope of his interests but also in the fact that he was theoretically articulate - perhaps more so than any other writer before Cantillon' (Schumpeter, p. 215 note). 'Boisguilbert is largely remembered as a precursor of the Physiocrats and as the economist whom Marx linked with Petty as marking the start of classical political economy. His influence was undoubtedly more extensive: much of Cantillon's circular flow analysis appears inspired by his work; while Roberts in his Boisguilbert, Economist of the Reign of Louis XIV, (1935) argues for considerable similarity between his fundamental economic ideas and some of Adam Smith's' (New Palgrave, i, p. 259).

(BOURDON-DESPLANCHES, L.-J.)
Lettre à l'auteur des Observations sur le commerce des grains.
A Amsterdam (Paris), 1775. 32 pp. 8vo. Modern half morocco, gilt lettering. INED 733 (Bourdon-Desplanches) & 2917 (Linguet); Kress 7134 (listed under Linguet but attributing it also to Bourdon-Desplanches); Einaudi 3413 (attribution to Linguet); not in Goldsmiths; not in Higgs; Leblanc 162 (listed under Linguet but attributing it also to Bourdon-Desplanches). First edition. The usual attribution of the Observations sur le Commerce des Grains is to Dupont de Nemours, see INED and Einaudi. However, Dupont de Nemours' work was written as early as 1770. The author of these Observations against which Bourdon-Desplanches writes, is G.J.B. Target. The complete title of Target's work is: Observations sur le commerce des grains, écrites en décembre 1769, Amsterdam, et Paris, Cellot, 1775. The text of Bourdon-Desplanches' vehement refutation starts: 'Vous venez, Monsieur, d'imprimer, en 1775, ce que vous écrivies, dites-vous, en 1769 .....' The Lettre à l'auteur .... has sometimes been attributed to Linguet, but Darline Gay Levy, who wrote an important study on Linguet, attributes this work to Bourdon-Desplanches (see page 354). Target's work was a plea in favor of freedom of trade in grain, while Bourdon-Desplanches' response is vehemently opposing the idea of absolute and unlimited freedom of trade in grain. - Small dampstain in lower inner margin, not touching any text.

(CAMPOMANES, P.D. DE.)
Discurso sobre el fomento de la industria popular.
Madrid, En la Imprenta de D. Antonio de Sancha, 1774. (8), 198 pp. (Roman numbering). 8vo. Contemporary half calf, corners, marbled boards, red label with gilt lettering (somewhat rubbed, sides somewhat shaved). Kress 6998; Goldsmiths 11127; Einaudi 821; Higgs 5957; not in Colmeiro. First edition of this important book of which Venturi wrote: 'one of the fundamental books of the Spanish Enlightenment' (F. Venturi, Italy and the Enlightenment. Studies in a Cosmopolitan Century, p. 274). 'Pedro Rodriguez de Campomanes (1723-1802), an eminent Spanish jurist, economist and statesman. As a member of the group of enlightened ministers who gave lustre to the reign of Charles III, he laboured for the reform of taxation, the promotion of agriculture and manufactures, the diffusion of education and the adaptation of Spanish institutions to the needs of the age. Eminently upright and disinterested, he was one of the foremost benefactors of his country. His theoretic views and practical efforts strikingly resemble those of his illustrious contemporary Turgot' (Palgrave, i, p. 208). 'A man of wide culture and great ability, he tried his hand, both in office and out of it, on the great economic problems of his time and country. Of his writings, the one most relevant to our purpose is his Discurso sobre el fomento de la industria popular, which was to move McCulloch to fervent eulogy.' 'They (Campomanes and Jovellanos) were practical reformers in the line of economic liberalism, and neither bothered about nor contributed to the progress of analysis. But they understood the economic process better than did many a theorist. And, in view of the date of Campomanes Discurso (1774) it is not without interest to observe how little, if anything, he stood to learn from the Wealth of Nations' (Schumpeter, p. 172-173 and note). The Discurso sobre al fomento .... and the Discurso sobre la Educacion Popular .... 'are intended to show the dignity and importance of arts and manufactures; the patronage to which they are entitled; the drawbacks under which they laboured in Spain from corporation priviliges and vicious taxes and regulations; and the many advantages that would result from the systematic and judicious training of those engaged in them' (McCulloch, p. 361). - The first 7 leaves have been bound in reversed order. A good copy of a scarce and important work.

(CANTILLON, R.)
Essai sur la Nature du Commerce en général. Traduit de l'anglois.
A Londres, Chez Fletcher Gyles, dans Holborn, 1755. (4), 430, (6, Table des Chapitres) pp. 12mo. Contemporary half calf, spine gilt in compartments, gilt lettering, floral ornament in each compartment, green paper covered boards, all edges red. Kress 5423; Goldsmiths 8989; Einaudi 846; INED 933; Higgs 938; En Français dans le Texte, 159; Leblanc 57; Antoin E. Murphy, Richard Cantillon: entrepreneur and economist; T. Hutcheson, Before Adam Smith, pp. 163-178. First edition of Cantillon's great work, 'the most systematic statement of economic principles before Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations' (Roll, p. 121). 'The economic repute of Cantillon, for a time completely obscured by the glory of Adam Smith, can never have rested upon the popularity of his little book, now one of the scarcest works in economic literature .. The influence of the book is evidenced not only by the number but by the distinction of its students, including Gournay, Quesnay, Mirabeau, Turgot, and Adam Smith. It gave birth to Mirabeau's l'Ami des Hommes and apparently suggested much of the Tableau Oeconomique of Quesnay and parts of the Wealth of Nations .. Cantillon avoided, as Jevons has pointed out, the one-sidedness of the Physiocrats; and yet has been marked out as a Physiocrat .. Jevons thought Cantillon wrote 'with the scientific precision of a Cairnes or a Cournot,' and Prof. Marshall refers to his 'thoroughly scientific manner of discussion' .. In France the Essai has been pretty continuously read (see e.g. Ganilh, Des Systèmes d'Economie Politique, 2d. ed. 1821), and so stimulating and suggestive does it remain that its direct influence may be found to be not yet exhausted' (Palgrave, i, pp. 214f). Roll has called this work 'the most systematic statement of economic principles, before the Wealth of Nations' (History of Economic Thought, p. 121).Cantillon, a French banker of Irish extraction, was influenced by Petty, but his own influence was principally felt by the Physiocrat school: Higgs maintains that Quesnay took his fundamental principle of Physiocracy from the Essai. The Essai was written about 1730 and circulated in manuscript. Cantillon died in 1734 and the work was first published in 1755 in French, not in English, as stated on the title.The Essai has been quoted by Smith, Condillac, and Quesnay, plagiarised by Harris and Postlethwayt, and called by Jevons 'more emphatically than any other single work the cradle of political economy'. The work is divided into three sections: a general introduction to political economy, a treatise on currency, and a study of foreign commerce and exchange.'Since the 'discovery' of Cantillon by the English-speaking world following Jevons's enthusiastic article (1881), no less than justice has been done to the merits of the Essay .. Jevons himself noted that Cantillon had presented a treatment of currency, foreign exchanges, banking and credit which, judged against the work of its period, he felt to be 'almost beyond praise' .. It was likewise recognized as early as Jevons that Cantillon had set out the leading ideas of Adam Smith's 'important doctrine concerning wages in different employments' .. and that the Essay contained .. 'an almost complete anticipation of the Malthusian theory of population' (The New Palgrave, i, p. 318). - A very good copy.

(CAMBON, J. & D.V. RAMEL DE NOGARET.)
Rapports de la Commission des finances, et lois sur la dette publique, sur sa consolidation, sur l'imprunt volontaire et sur l'emprunt forcé, suivie de l'instruction sur l'emploi forcé.
A Paris, De l'Imprimerie nationale, 1793. With folding tables. (2), 2-130, (8), (139)-189, (190-192), 193-230 (last misnumbered 130) pp. 8vo. Contemporary half calf (a bit worn). Kress B.2517; Goldsmiths 15699 (4to edition); Stourm 222. First edition. Official publication including Cambon's report and the law of 24 August, as well as Nogaret's report. 'Célèbre rapport sur le grand Livre de la dette publique. Le Grand Livre de la dette publique sera le titre unique et fondamental de tous les créanciers de l'état.' (Stourm). The whole idea behind the 'Grand Livre' was to do something about the two main causes of the confusion which prevailed concerning the finances of the state. These two causes were: the excessive amount of assignats in circulation and their consequent depreciation, and the ignorance prevailing as to the actual debt of the country. Cambon proposed to draw up the 'Grand Livre' of the national debt. It was this great measure upon which his fame as financier rests. (See: Palgrave 206-7; see also at length: Historical Dictionary of the French Revolution).Dominique-Vincent Ramel de Nogaret, representative of the Third Estate, was mainly interested in financial questions, voted in favor of the assignats. 'Mais le nom de Ramel-Nogaret demeure surtout attaché au ministère des Finances du Directoire qu'il exerça de janvier 1796 à juillet 1799. C'était une tâche difficile, c'est le moins qu'on puisse dire. L'opinion rentière lui reprocha la débâcle des assignats et la banqueroute des 2/3, alors qu'il fut un excellent ministre: allègement de la dette, refus des expédients, refonte du système fiscal (après lui il demeura en l'état pendant tout le XIXe siècle), début de la construction de l'administration des Finances qu'achèvera Gaudin.' (Soboul, A. Dictionnaire historique de la Révolution française, p. 882).Cambon, once occupied with the finances of France, wrote three important reports which are all necessary reading for anyone who wants to appreciate the financial condition of France when foreign war added to the complications of the revolution. His work was of high quality and great importance. 'Cambon was without doubt the greatest financier of the French revolution; he shared Mirabeau's abhorrence of national bankruptcy; he strove to draw his country from the financial embarrasment caused by the depreciation of the assignats; he managed the treasury skilfully and with absolute honesty, and he possessed Montesquieu's power of making financial statements lucid and even interesting.' (Palgrave, pp. 206-207; see also: Stourm, Les finances de l'Ancien Régime et de la Révolution, and Historical Dictionary of the French Revolution, 1789-1799).

Contemporary marbled calf, spines richly gilt, contrasting labels on spine with gilt lettering. Not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi; not in Higgs; INED 1141 (first work only); Weulersse, i, p. xxv. Third and best edition. The attribution is uncertain. See: Vroil, J. de.

The added text "Réformateur réformé" is a reply to the first of which the author is unknown. Simon Clicquot de Blervache (1723-1796), French economist. Both before and after his appointment as director general of manufactures and commerce in 1766 he wrote a number of tracts dealing with matters of economic policy. He was fundamentally an economic liberal, although caution occasionally impelled him to favor moderate internal regulation or more drastic regulation of foreign trade. - With library ticket on front paste-down of both volumes: Bibliothèque du Chateau de Salles - H. du Closel.

Lewis, Utopian Literature in the Pennsylvania State University Libraries, A Selected Bibliography: p. 47-8; Goldsmiths 10389 (other issue); Einaudi 1382; Higgs 4327; INED 1225; Weulersse, i, p. xxvi; not in Kress; not in Mattioli.

In the end a good king abolishes feudal laws and restores industry, agriculture, and culture in general to their former higher levels" (Lewis.) The most important criticism on the Corps des Arts et Métiers before the reforms of Turgot. Cochinchina stands for France, Chinki for the French peasant, whose work is the most favourable to the nation, but who is crushed by the taxes and who suffers from the economic policy of the government. The author also recommends the emancipation of the Jews. With this subject is dealt with at length in chapter 21, where the Jews are called 'Banians'. At the time the work was also attributed to Voltaire and Clicquot de Blervache.

(CONTI Pietro Paolo)
Vir Desideriorum. Desideri di uno zelante suddito da umiliarsi al Sommo Pontefice raccomandati al sacro collegio radunato in conclave per la sede vacante di Benedetto XIV
In 8, pp. XVI. Scritta a penna al frontespizio. Cartonat. moderna. Pubblicazione anonima, ma opera di Pietro Paolo Conti, cardinale italiano, nativo di Camerino, che partecipo' al Concilio nel 1769 nel quale venne eletto papa Clemente XIV. La pubblicazione di questo libello si inserisce proprio nell'occasione di questa elezione. L'autore, che molte cose aveva approfondito in tema di amministrazione dello stato, auspica l'eliminazione delle molte ingiustizie ed estorsioni fatte dai governatori a danno dei poveri, il miglioramento dell'economia 'la' dove un tempo vi era bella coltura delle campagne e fertilita' ora vi e' desolazione e orrore'. I tesorieri, obbligati a mandare a Roma moneta d'oro e d'argento, rifiutano la moneta in rame a pagamento delle gabelle ma solo questa circola in realta' tra il popolo. L'Autore si scaglia poi contro i nobili dello stato pontificio che definisce 'poveri e superbi' (e se si applicassero a commerci e mercatura non m arcirebbero tra le miserie) ma anche contro i finti poveri cioe' coloro che 'si appigliano all'arte del birboneggiare'. Raro e interessante saggio di economia politica.

(DUBUAT-NANCAY, L. G.)
Eléments de la politique, ou recherche des vrais principes de l'économie sociale.
A Londres, 1773. 6 volumes in 4. xliv, 336 pp.; xii, 429, (1) pp.; xii, 418 pp.; xi, (1), 265, (1) pp.; vii, (1), 334 pp.; x, 273, (1) pp. 8vo. Contemporary marbled calf, spines gilt with raised bands and labels with gilt lettering (gilt volume numbering faded), joints of volume 4 expertly repaired, tiny hole at foot of spine. Kress C.4731; Einaudi 1627; Higgs 5647; INED 1483; not in Goldsmiths; not in Mattioli. First edition, rare. Dubuat-Nançay (1732-1787), diplomat and historian is seen as one of Cantillon's disciples because of his emphasis upon the standard of living and his treatment of luxury. He differed from Cantillon, however, both in his general philosophy and in his analysis of social problems. Thus he believed that the ruin of France could be averted only through the restoration of a feudal regime. In his emphasis upon agriculture he resembled Sully and the agrarians; in his notion of a providential natural order and of the net productivity of agriculture, the physiocrats. Unlike Cantillon, Dubuat-Nançay was a populationist in that he explicitly favored, with some qualification, as large a population as could be supported in life and health on a given territory. See for an elaborate analysis of the work and ideas of Dubuat-Nançay: J.J. Spengler, French Predecessors of Malthus, pp. 144-150.

(GOUDAR, A.)
Les intérêts de la France mal entendus, dans les branches de l'agriculture, de la population, des finances, du commerce, de la marine et de l'industrie. Par un citoyen.
A Amsterdam, Chez Jacques Coeur, à la corne d'Abondance (Paris), 1756. 3 volumes. xii, 372 pp.; 406 pp.; 350 pp. 8vo. Contemporary marbled calf, spines richly gilt in compartments, labels with gilt lettering and numbering. Mars 27; Weulersse, i, p. xxvii; Kress 5526; Goldsmiths 9082; Einaudi 2659; Mattioli 1481; INED 2079; Higgs 1145. First edition, second issue. Einaudi's copy is identical with ours, about the Kress and Goldsmiths copies not much can be said, both collections contain more than one copy and they both indicate that there is one copy with a third volume with the indication 'Nouvelle édition', as does our third volume. According to Mars, Ange Goudar, cet inconnu, essai bio-bibliographique, the third volume came from the same press as the first two volumes but with a different ornamental typography. Between the first issue and this issue, there appeared, according to Mars, a parisian contrefaçon, all published in 1756. This is the main work of Goudar. It was used by the demographer Süssmilch in his Die goetliche ordnung. Voltaire had a copy in his library and Diderot wrote about the book in a letter to Sophie Volland. Preceding Mirabeau's l'Ami des Hommes by a few months, it marks an important date in the history of political economy, and made Goudar one of the leading figures of the school of 'des agrariens et populationnistes', not to be mixed with the Physiocrats, which they preceded and with whom they disagreed on various points. 'Of the pre-physiocratic French writers who approached the population problem in terms of agricultural values and reforms, Ange Goudar (1720-1791) was the most important' (Spengler, French predecessors of Malthus, pp. 56-67.) Spengler's analysis is elaborate and shows the crucial importance of this work. - Some corners somewhat damaged.

Essai analytique sur la richesse et sur l'impôt, où l'on réfute la nouvelle doctrine économique qui a fourni à la Société Royale d'Agriculture de Limoges les principes d'un programme qu'elle a publié sur l'effet des impôts directs.
Londres (Paris), 1767. (12), xii, 408 pp. 8vo. Modern marbled boards, red morocco label with gilt lettering. Kress 4142; Goldsmiths 10266; Einaudi 2683; INED 2126; Higgs 4142; Weulersse, i, p. xxvii; Conlon 67:916; Leblanc 139. The very scarce first edition of one of the most important works written against the physiocrats. 'Graslin's reputation never was what it should have been because he put so much emphasis upon criticism of the Physiocrats -which is in fact the best ever proferred- that his readers were apt to overlook his positive contribution. Actually, his Essai analytique presents the outlines of a comprehensive theory of wealth as a theory of total income rather than of income net of all producers expenses including wages -a not inconsiderable improvement considering the role the latter was to play later on. Also he was above his contemporaries insight into the problem of incidence of taxation' (Schumpeter, p. 175). 'In his principal work (the present work) he criticized the physiocratic conceptions of wealth, production and taxation, advocating as preferable to the physiocratic impôt unique what amounted to a kind of progressive tax on income' (Spengler, French Predecessors of Malthus, p. 315.) 'Graslin was a steady and consistent opponent of the tenets of the Physiocrats on the subject of the produit net and the consequences they deducted from this principle and applied to taxtation' (Palgrave, ii, p. 255). - Lightly browned throughout.

A Londres, 1768. With folding table. 2 volumes in 1. (2), 231, (1) pp.; (2), 229, (1) pp. 12mo. Contemporary marbled calf, spine gilt with raised bands, label with gilt lettering, marbled edges. Kress 6563; Higgs 4439; Goldsmiths 10466; Conlon 68:986 (attribution to William Knox); INED 2150 (a new edition published in 1769, in one small volume); Stourm, p. 111. First French edition, there was also an edition published in 4to (Kress) in the same year. The attribution is uncertain, some bibliographies list it under Grenville, others under Knox. Important financial study dealing with the difficulties of England after the Seven Year's War which had added some £ 60,000,000 to the national debt, and the possible repercussions this may have on the population, and further the difficulties to recruit new soldiers, the shortage of funds to pay the soldiers, the weight of taxes on the working classes. The author believes that they may consider emigration, and he wonders whether England will have sufficient numbers of men to be sent to the colonies, "sinon, les indigènes seront de beaucoup les plus nombreux, et il leur faudrait leurs propres représentants au Parlement" (INED). The present work, a translation of the Present State of the Nation; Particularly with respect to Its Trade Finances, etc., drew a retort from Burke and a brief comment from Adam Smith.The folding table is entitled: Etat de la Dette Nationale au 5 Janvier 1767, avec les Intérêts & les Taux.

Elémens d'économie politique, suivis de quelques vues sur l'application des principes de cette science aux règles administratives.
A Paris, Chez Fantin, 1817. (8), xxi, (3), 384 pp. 8vo. Modern marbled boards, leather label, gilt lettering, original orange blind wrappers preserved, uncut. Kress B.6941; Goldsmiths 21694; Einaudi 2860; INED 2231; not in Mattioli. First edition. ' ..... expose avec beaucoup de lucidité les graves inconvéniants d'une mauvaise répartition de l'impôt ..... Nous ne connaissons pas d'adversaires plus énergique des lois prohibitives, et son opposition est d'autant plus courageuse que l'auteur appartient à l'administration' (Blanqui).Alexandre-Maurice Blanc de Lanautte, Comte d'Hauterive, was diplomat and economist, born in Aspres (Hautes-Alpes) on 14 April 1754. He went with Choiseul-Gouffier to Constantinopel, spent some years in New York, and returned to France in 1798 and started working for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

(HERRENSCHWAND, J.F. DE.)
De l'économie politique et morale de l'espèce humaine.
A Londres, de l'Imprimerie de Cooper & Graham, 1796. 2 volumes. (24), 408 pp.; (4), 454 pp. 8vo. Modern half red morocco, spines with gilt lettering, marbled boards. Kress B.3197; Goldsmiths 16541; Einaudi 2888 (4to edition); INED 2264bis (4to edition). First edition, both a 4to and a 8vo edition were published. 'The dynamic aspects of population growth were treated more fully by Herrenschwand, a Swiss-born sometime French official, than by any other French author. Throughout his work runs the view that although man's procreative power is without inherent limit, population 'can multiply only in proportion to its support', and does increase as man's cultural progress enables him to increase the available food supply. He seems to have believed, moreover, despite his great faith in man's capacity for intellectual and cultural progress, that unless appropriate economics policies were persued by statesman, population pressure and misery would be the lot of the lower classes, who comprised about three quarters of the population' (Spengler, French Predecessors of Malthus). Herrenschwand borrowed his conception of nature from Shaftesbury, was influenced by Adam Smith and Arthur Young, and apparently knew the works of Franklin, Steuart, Decker, Price, Davenant, and Temple, and was a critic of Necker's views and policies. Arthur Young praised Herrenschwand's works highly, and Blanqui mentions him as a connecting link between Quesnay and Smith. - Very fine and nice copy, with large margins.

(HERBERT, C.J.)
Essai sur la police générale des grains, sur leurs prix & sur les effets de l'agriculture.
A Berlin, 1757. iv, xviii, 435, (1) pp. 12mo. Contemporary marbled calf, spine richly gilt with raised bands, gilt lettering, red edges. Higgs 1474; Kress 5617 (incomplete copy); Weulersse, i, xx; this edition not in Goldsmiths, Einaudi & INED. The best edition. Including the 'Arrêt du Conseil d'Etat du Roi, qui, entr'autres dispositions, ordonne que le commerce de toute espèce de grains sera libre entièrement par terre et par les rivières, de province à province, dans l'intérieur du Royaume. Du 17 Septembre 1754', to which referrence is made in the Avertissement. The basic importance of agriculture in the life of the French nation was equally emphasized by C.J. Herbert, who held labor and land to be the primary resources of a nation, and agriculture its basic industry. Upon agriculture depended a nation's power and wealth, its ability to colonize, the fruitfulness of its commerce, and the capacity of its territory to support population. Having demonstrated the basic importance of agriculture to the political and economic strength of France, Herbert indicated that French agriculture was languishing, and its revivification was essential to the aggrandizement of the nation and to the felicity of its inhabitants; ..... Herbert advocated the improvement of grain markets and prices through inauguration of the right to export grain, modifications in the tax system, and the establishment of a research bureau to discover how agriculture could be improved, and why some provinces were more favorable to agriculture, manufacturing, and population growth than others. (Spengler, French predecessors of Malthus, pp. 67-72). Valuable work, cited with praise by Adam Smith.

(ISELIN, I.)
Träume eines Menschenfreundes. Erster [-Zweyter] Theil.
Carlsruhe, bei Christian Gottlieb Schmieder, 1784. With one folding table. Two volumes bound in one. (iii)-xvi, 288 pp.; (iv), 369, (1) pp. 8vo. 19th-century half cloth, spine gilt in compartments, gilt lettering, marbled boards, corners, sprinkled edges. Not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi; not in Menger; for other editions see Goldsmiths 11382 and Humpert 12691; Mattioli 1690; NUC locates only two copies (NNC, CU). Second edition of the author's principal work on physiocracy, and very rare. In 1755 Iselin published his Patriotische und Philosophische Träume eines Menschenfreundes. 'Afterwards, by good fortune, the Ephémérides du Citoyen came into his hands after reading which Quesnay became in his eyes 'what Newton is in the eyes of a mathematician.' The new standpoint comes to light, fully matured in the work which appeared in 1776: Träume eines Menschenfreundes. This book is by no means a second edition of the work published in 1755, as is generally supposed, and as might have been conjectured from the kindred title, but quite a new work' (Palgrave, vol. ii, p. 459) in which he embraces the authors who had adopted Quesnay's teaching, as the marquis de Mirabeau, Baudeau, Comte d'Albon and others. The present edition is a reprint of the 1776 edition, the first volume contains the representation of Quesnay's Tableau Economique.According to Iselin human institutions have corrupted the natural order and in this book he concludes with a new constitution aiming at the reconciliation of the republicanism of his Swiss homeland with the enlightened despotism of Quesnay. Iselin was the editor of the German economic journal Ephemeriden der Menschheit which soon gained a great reputation and counted among its contributors many of the most eminent German economists of the time.- The half-titles, carrying the serial-title "Sammlung der bestend deutschen prosaischen Schriftsteller und Dichter. Hundert und vierzigster (Ein und vierzigster) Theil", are absent, tear in page v-vi repaired, title-pages with contemporary ownership's entry in blank portion.

(LA SALLE DE L'ETANG, S.P. DE.)
Prairies artificielles, ou Moyens de perfectionner l'agriculture dans toutes les provinces de France, surtout en Champagne, par l'entretien & le renouvellement de l'engrais. Troisième édition, augmentée 1. d'un traité sur la culture de la luzerne, du trèfle et du sainfoin; 2. d'une dissertation sur l'exportation du bled.
A Bruxelles, et se trouve à Paris, Chez Desaint & Saillant, 1762. 330 pp. 12mo. Contemporary marbled calf, spine gilt with raised bands, red edges, rear joint with some loss, lightly rubbed. INED 2659; Higgs 2666; not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; Einaudi 3219 (Italian translation); Weulersse i, xxvii. Third, expanded and best edition. A treatise on 'artificial pastures' and other means to improve agriculture, originally published in 1756 as a volume of 124 pages only. In the present third edition the original essay is followed by two other treatises, of which the first deals with the culture of clover, and the second with the exportation of corn. Simon-Philibert la Salle de l'Etang (1700? -1765) here provides one of the earliest systematic plans for rotating food crops with "artificial" pastures, allowing tilled lands to rebuild nutrient reserves. In addition, the author advocates raising livestock for manure to fertilize dry and sterile lands. In order to facilitate his plan, he calls for the establishment of a national bureau of agriculture that would be responsible for record- keeping, distributing produce throughout the country in times of famine and regional crises, regulating foreign trade in agricultural products, and maintaining fair prices. La Salle de l'Etang was an official of the city of Reims and deputy at Paris and author of a popular 'Manuel d'agriculture'. His formula for a balanced partition of the soil between arable land and 'artifical pastures' was adopted by Quesnay in his famous article 'Grains' for the 'Encyclopedie'. - Old handwritten ownership's entry in blank lower margin of the title-page.

Contemporary marbled calf, spine gilt in compartments, label with gilt lettering, joints starting to split but holding firm, a bit rubbed and worn.

The rare 4to edition by 'the ablest expositor of this (the physiocratic) system' (McCulloch). It was written following Le Mercier's retirement from Parliament in 1759. Praised by Adam Smith and Diderot amongst others, L'Ordre naturel was, according to Palgrave, considered more highly than l'Esprit des Loix by some contemporaries. The author argues that there is a natural law of property which is based on the physical order of nature, and which underlies all other laws.

L'Ami des Hommes, ou Traité de la Population. Nouvelle édition, Augmentée d'une quatrième Partie & de Sommaires.
No place, 1758-1760. With engraved frontispiece. 6 parts in 3 volumes. viii, 192 pp.; (2), 266, (4) pp.; (6), 263, (1) pp.; (8), 278, 81, (1) pp.; viii, 167, (1) pp.; (2), 118, (2), 119-279, (5) pp. 4to. Contemporary marbled calf, spines gilt with raised bands, red labels with gilt lettering. Kress 5736; Goldsmiths 9317; Einaudi 3941; INED 3194, 3203, 3206; Higgs 1631 & 2160. Second edition of the first three parts, first edition of the parts IV-VI, constituting the best and most complete edition of the work, and a fundamental physiocratic text. The Ami des Hommes is the fundamental Physiocratic text. 'This remarkable treatise created the greatest sensation throughout the whole of Europe. It is said to have gone through forty editions, and was translated into several languages. Its anonymous author, soon discovered, became the idol of the day, and was generally referred to by the sobriquet which he had chosen for the title of his book ..... After reading the Ami des Hommes (the first three parts, 1756), Quesnay, who agreed with many of the author's opinions, desired to make his acquaintance' (Palgrave, ii, p. 775). Mirabeau now became the fervent admirer of Quesnay, and between them they founded the school of the Physiocrats. In 1758 a fourth part was published in which Quesnay's influence is clearly visible. The final two parts were published in 1760. It is this final part which is of particular importance as it contains the first public appearance of Quesnay's Tableau Economique. There are less than ten copies in the world of either the earlier editions of 1758 or 1759. This work is thus the first obtainable edition of the Tableau Economique. - Very good copy of the rare 4to edition.

Théorie de l'impôt. (Paris), 1760. - (Bound with:) (PESSELIER, C.E.) Doutes proposés à l'auteur de la Théorie de l'impôt.
(Paris), 1761. Two works bound in one volume. viii, 336 pp.; viii, 148 pp. 4to. Contemporary polished calf, spine gilt with raised bands, red label with gilt lettering, gilt triple fillet on sides, all edges gilt, a bit rubbed, small damage to head of spine. First work: Kress 5883; Goldsmiths 9602; INED 3209; Higgs 2297; McCulloch 346, Carpenter, Economic Bestsellers, XXI, (2); Einaudi 3946. First edition, the very rare 4to edition. 'Ce fut la première oeuvre vraiment personelle de Mirabeau depuis sa conversion (to Physiocratic doctrines). Le succès en fut très vif. Mirabeau développe les principes de la nouvelle école, avec un franc-parler qui lui attira de nombreux suffrages ..... et le fit emprissoner. Il s'élève nottamment contre les fermiers-généraux, fait une critique sévère du régime fiscal alors en vigueur, et énonce trois conditions nécaissaires à une judicieuse imposition' (INED). The collaboration between Mirabeau and Quesnay seems evident as the Archives Nationales have the manuscript of the text to which lengthy notes by Quesnay have been added. It is one of the principal works of the Physiocratic school and established it in the public eye, which was also due to the ensuing emprisonment of Mirabeau following his very frank manner of expression used in the book. 'Always in strict collaboration with the master, Mirabeau wrote a treatise on one of the major economic problems of the time: the reform of the fiscal system. The Théorie de l'Impot appeared in 1760 and presented one of the Physiocrats' most famous proposals: the single tax on rent' (New Palgrave, iii, p. 870).This is a spirited and able attack on the financial administration of France and especially the Fermiers-généraux, whom Mirabeau regarded as parasites preying upon the vitals of the nation. The work proposes a reorganisation of financial administrative machinery, the abolition of the 'Fermes', a reduction in the taxation upon salt, with the object of increasing the total yield, and a special tax upon tobacco farms. The domaine, the post and the mint were to be further sources of revenue. The author ranks as one of the earliest important writers on taxation. Higgs notes that the book is 'of real importance in the history of financial theory' (Higgs, The Physiocrats, p. 57).Second work: Kress 5963; Goldsmiths 9695; Einaudi 4409; Higgs 3524; INED 3524; Weulersse, i, p. xxvii, all citing the 12mo edition only; Mattioli 2790 (the 4to edition).First edition, the very rare 4to edition.Pesselier was one of the most forceful critics of the physiocrats and here attacks Mirabeau and his Théorie de l'Impôt of the previous year. The work is notable, however, for its affirmation of the characteristically physiocratic doctrine that agriculture holds a priviliged place in the economic system.
