Though originally published in French in 1761 Gibbon wrote most of this essay in 1758 while only 21. The translator has never been identified but was probably a professional hired by Becket. Gibbon was not happy with it though it was advertised as being prepared 'under the inspection of the author'. He states "had my feelings been more exquisite I might have wept over its blunders and baldness." Also from his journal January 11th 1763. " From thence I went to Becket paid him his bill fifty-four pounds and gave him back his translation. It must be printed tho' very indifferent. My comfort is that my misfortune is not an uncommon one." One of the 'best' mistakes quoted by Norton is the rendering of "si la physique a ses Buffons" by "if Physics hath its buffoons." unknown
