1707Best.-Nr. 152921Rouen: no printer but for the author 1707. A CLASSIC OF PUBLIC FINANCE Very rare first edition first issue with B4 in uncancelled state: on p. 16 a setier is given as weighing 170 rather than 240 pounds of "an erudite economic work much in advance of its time and distinguished both by accuracy of method and breadth of view" Palgrave "creditable alike to the heart and the head of its illustrious author" McCulloch. Carpenter lists six other printings dated 1707 all in smaller format and eight subsequent editions before 1710 including the English translation A Project for a Royal Tythe 1708; reissued in 1710 as An Essay for a General Tax. "Though the book was published anonymously and only a few copies issued for circulation among friends Vauban had to submit to the mortification of seeing it 'pilloried' by the parliament while he himself incurred the displeasure of the king Louis XIV. A few weeks later he died" Palgrave. Although the renowned soldier-engineer Vauban 1633-1707 wrote on a very wide variety of subjects apart from economics - fortifications war naval matters religion agriculture population and colonization - the Projet d'une Dixme royale is an outstanding work in the field of public finance. Its two most notable features are its understanding of the central role of fiscal policy in economic reform - the result of an exceptionally comprehensive grasp of the economic process - and its use of detailed numerical data to substantiate conclusions. Schumpeter pronounced the work "unsurpassed before or after in the neatness and cogency of the argument. Purposeful marshalling of all the available data was the essence of his analysis. Nobody ever understood better the true relation between facts and argument. It is this that makes him an economic classic in the eulogistic sense of the word and a forerunner of modern tendencies" Schumpeter History of Economic Analysis p. 204. According to Boislisle the first edition was printed in Rouen in 1706 at the initiative of the Abbé de Beaumont who is credited with the authorship of the work by Boisguilbert. Vauban had the sheets bound by the widow of a certain Fétil and took great pains that the book had no public circulation. It was prohibited on 14 February 1707 but apparently the police could only seize two copies. To the police the binder declared she had had 264 copies in total 12 bound in morocco the rest in calf. The two copies seized at the Abbé de Beaumont's were described as in "veau fauve" and marbled parchment. See Arthur Michel de Boislisle "La Proscription du projet de Dime Royale et la mort de Vauban" Mémoire lu à l'Académie des sciences morales et politiques Paris 1875. In the Society of Jesus a professed house was a residence where - in a spirit of radical poverty - no member had a stable income. The Jesuit priests who lived there all of whom have made the profession of the four vows undertake their spiritual and pastoral ministry completely for free.

Contenant un traité pratique des mines. et une autre de la guerre en general.The Hague Pieter de Hondt 1742. First edition of Vauban's treatises on siegecraft and military mining. Of all the 17th- and 18th-century books "on military technology no works had greater influence or enjoyed greater prestige than those of Sebastien Le Prestre de Vauban the great military engineer of the reign of Louis XIV" Guerlac. Although a highly practical man and not a theoretician Vauban had written down the secrets of his success in the building and capturing of fortresses between 1669 and 1704. Vauban's strategic superiority could only remain if this information was kept secret so his texts circulated only within a very select circle. After Vauban's death they were leaked. "By the time the treatises became available Vauban's early readers must have been ready to believe that the text finally being made public did in fact contain incredible military secrets and have the power to make nations invincible. No other treatise of siegecraft had been surrounded by such secrecy" DeJean. The first volume contained Vauban's treatise on the attack of fortified places but the added part on defence was actually written by a colleague seigneur Deshoulières 1621-1693. A second volume published in 1742 contained Vauban's treatise on military mining and a general treatise on war.With library stamps. Binding slightly worn.

Contenant un Trait Pratique des Mines. Le Have The Hague: Pierre de Hondt 1737 1742. Two volumes in one. Quarto early 19th-century half green cloth blue marbled boards. $2800.First editions of VaubanÕs massive posthumous two-volume De lÕAttaque et de la la Dfense des Places the Òstandard work for students of fortifications and siegecraft until the second half of the 19th centuryÓ with 45 splendid engraved plates including 25 folding by this powerfully influential military strategist whose legacy was so esteemed by Napoleon that he ordered VaubanÕs heart be placed under the dome of the Invalides in Paris.Legendary 17th-century military strategist Sbastien le Prestre de Vauban is considered central in Òdetermining the course of siege warfare for the next century or more. Not only did he provide a systematic discussion of the siege attack the basis for tactical doctrine but his legacyÉ completely altered the face of early modern siegecraft reversing the dominance of the century-old trace italienne design and overturning as well the pattern of long bloody uncertain sieges of the 16th and 17th centuries. His swift conquests of Spanish and Dutch towns in the War of Devolution the Dutch War the War of Reunions and the Nine YearsÕ War won him fame throughout Europe; a contemporary adage boasted that a town besieged by Vauban was one taken while a town defended by him was one savedÉ The Vauban legacy thus eliminated the eternal sieges of a previous age.Ó Vauban who was made Marshal of France in 1703 directed 47 sieges during the many campaigns that shaped the countryÕs emerging frontiers under Louis XIV. In times of both war and peace he worked tirelessly at designing and building new fortresses and strengthening existing ones. Vauban almost single-handedly reversed the tendency of arduous expensive sieges and although he died in 1707 Òhis legacy lasted far beyond his death. His stone and brick fortresses shaped campaigns long after he had been buried and outline FranceÕs hexagon today; some of them still stand having survived even WWII bombardments e.g. Cherbourg and BrestÉ Much has been made of VaubanÕs strategic vision particularly his creation of a rationalized fortified frontiere de fer shielding France the famous pre carre translated alternately as a dueling round or a squared circleÉ. The territorial boundaries Louis XIV conquered and defended with the aid of VaubanÕs abilities last to this dayÓ Ostwald Vauban Under Siege 9-13. Vauban is also seen as the first since the classic age of Rome to systematically build proper permanent barracks to accommodate soldiersÑa vital step in promoting their health well-being and discipline. The sieges conducted by NapoleonÕs armies in the Iberian Peninsular in the second decade of the 19th century were clearly recognizable as Vauban-style assaults. So great was NapoleonÕs esteem for Vauban that in May 1808 he honored Vauban by arranging to have his heart placed within the grand monument erected under the dome of the Invalides in Paris. ÒVaubanÕs highly-renowned De lÕAttaque et de la Defense des PlacesÉ. was the standard work for students of fortifications and siegecraft until the second half of the 19th centuryÓ Gat Origins 35.

One of the at least seven different issues of the 12mo edition published same year as the first edition in 4to in which Vauban proposed a comprehensive tax reform plan for France.

Schumpeter called the work 'unsurpassed before or after in the neatness and cogency of the argument. Purposeful marshalling of all the available data was the essence of his analysis.
