An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

1786rif. 378965London: A. Strahan and T. Cadell 1786. Fourth edition. viii 499 1; vi 518 6; v iv-v 1 465 1 50pp. 3 vols. 8vo. Contemporary speckled calf red morocco lettering pieces minor wear at extremities joints cracked but cords holding. Provenance: Townley Clarkson 18th century signature and inscription. Fourth edition. viii 499 1; vi 518 6; v iv-v 1 465 1 50pp. 3 vols. 8vo. "Where the political aspects of human rights had taken two centures to explore Smith's achievement was to bring the study of economic aspects to the same point in a single work. The Wealth of Nations is not a system but as a provisional analysis it is completely convincing. The certainty of its criticism and its grasp of human nature have made it the first and greatest classic of modern economic thought" PMM. The fourth edition just the second octavo edition overall is a reprint of the important third edition with only minor variations. All lifetime editions of Wealth of Nations are desirable. "The Wealth of Nations had no rival in scope or depth when published and is still one of the few works in its field to have achieved classic status meaning simply that it has sustained yet survived repeated reading critical and adulatory long after the circumstances which prompted it have become the object of historical enquiry" ODNB.

SMITH, AdamABAA

Theory of Moral Sentiments

1817rif. 69616Philadelphia: Published by Anthony Finley. J. Maxwell Printer 1817. Full Description: SMITH Adam. The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Or an Essay Towards an Analysis of the Principles by which Men naturally judge concerning the Conduct and Character first of their Neighbours and afterwards of themselves. To Which is added A Dissertation on the Origin of Languages. First American from the Twelfth Edinburgh Edition. Philadelphia: Published by Anthony Finley. J. Maxwell Printer. 1817. First American edition stated. There was a edition printed in Boston the same year. It is believed that this Philadelphia edition came before the Boston edition. Sabin only lists the Boston edition. Kress calls this the first American and Vanderblue collection lists the Philadelphia copy first and does not have a Boston copy. Both editions are very rare. We could only find 7 copies total on Rare Book Hub the last appearing in 2007. One octavo volume 8 1/2 x 5 1/8 inches; 215x 130 mm. 2 blank vii 1 blank 598 2 publisher's ads 2 blank pp. Contemporary full marbled sheep. Spine with red leather spine label lettered in gilt. Spine ruled in gilt. Spine with repairs along hinges and head and tail. Boards a bit scuffed and corners bumped. Some washed dampstaining to preliminary leaves. Leaves foxed and toned throughout as is usual from American paper of this time. Two previous owner's bookplates to front pastedown Joel Crawford and C.P. Crawford. Title-page and final leaf with the old ink signature "J. Crawford." A few instances marginalia in the same ink as well as a few pencil underlines. Overall a very good copy. Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments is drawn from his course of lectures while he was professor of moral philosophy at the University of Glasgow. "The work received wide acclaim and so impressed the stepfather of the young duke of Buccleuch that he invited Smith to become the duke's tutor with the promise of a pension for life.The greater part of the Theory of Moral Sentiments is an account of moral psychology.The mainstay of Smith's moral psychology is sympathy.Smith characterizes the mechanism of sympathy in this way: 'Whatever is the passion which arises from any object in the person principally concerned an analogous emotion springs up at the throught of this situation in the breast of every attentive spectator'.Smith argues that if the appearance of grief or joy for example arouses similar feelings in us it is because these feelings suggest to us the general idea of some good or evil that has befallen the person in whom we observe them" Encyclopedia of Philosophy. "The Theory of Moral Sentiments was published in April 1759 and at once brought Smith something more than local fame. It was hailed by David Hume in typical ironic manner: 'I proceed to tell you the melancholy news' he wrote from London 'that your book has been very unfortunate: for the public seem disposed to applaud it extremely'" Mossner Adam Smith: The Biographical Approach p. 12. Provenance: The bookplates on this copy are for Joel Crawford Milledgeville GA 1824 and C.P. Crawford. Joel Crawford June 15 1783 - April 5 1858 was an American politician soldier and lawyer. He served as a U.S. Congressman in the state of Georgia. Kress B.7052. The Vanderblue memorial collection of Smithiana Pg 40-41. Sabin 82314 for first edition HBS 69616. $15000.

Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

1778rif. 67993London: Printed for W. Strahan; and T. Cadell 1778. Full Description: SMITH Adam. An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. In two volumes. The second edition. London: Printed for W. Strahan; and T. Cadell 1778. Second edition first published in 1776 and the only other edition to be published in quarto format. One of 500 copies printed. Two quarto volumes 10 3/4 x 8 7/8 inches; 273 x 225 mm. 8 510; 8 589 1 blank pp. With half-title in Volume II no half-title called for in Volume I. Full newer speckled calf. Boards tooled in gilt. Spines with red morocco spine labels lettered in gilt. Spines stamped and numbered in gilt. Gilt board edges. Gilt dentelles. Newer endpapers. Volume one with some newly invisible repairs to the title-page at gutter along top margin and to a tiny hole not affecting text. Text of volume I with some foxing throughout. Volume II with some neat pencil marginalia and a pin-sized wormhole to outer blank margin from signature 3A through the end. Still volume II internally very clean. Overall a very good copy. The second edition is the rarest of the early editions of The Wealth of Nations. Only 500 copies were printed. The third edition consisted of 1000 copies and the fourth 1250 copies. It is unknown how many copies of the more common first edition were published. "The second edition exhibits a number of alterations large and small some providing new information some correcting matters of fact some perfecting the idiom and large number now documenting references in footnotes" William B. Todd in the 1976 Oxford edition of The Wealth of Nations. Adam Smith 1723-1790 spent ten years in the writing and perfecting of The Wealth of Nations. "The book succeeded at once and the first edition was exhausted in six months.Whether it be true or not as Buckle said that the 'Wealth of Nations' was 'in its ultimate results probably the most important that had ever been written'.it is probable that no book can be mentioned which so rapidly became an authority both with statesmen and philosophers" D.N.B. "The history of economic theory up to the end of the nineteenth century consists of two parts: the mercantilist phase which was based not so much on a doctrine as on a system of practice which grew out of social conditions; and the second phase which saw the development of the theory that the individual had the right to be unimpeded in the exercise of economic activity. While it cannot be said that Smith invented the latter theory. his work is the first major expression of it. He begins with the thought that labour is the source from which a nation derives what is necessary to it. The improvement of the division of labour is the measure of productivity and in it lies the human propensity to barter and exchange. Labour represents the three essential elements- wages profit and rent- and these three also constitute income. From the working of the economy Smith passes to its matter- 'stock'- which compasses all that man owns either for his own consumption or for the return which it brings him. The Wealth of Nations ends with a history of economic development a definitive onslaught on the mercantile system and some prophetic speculations on the limits of economic control.The Wealth of Nations is not a system but as a provisional analysis it is complete convincing. The certainty of its criticism and its grasp of human nature have made it the first and greatest classic of modern economic thought" Printing and the Mind of Man 221 describing the 1776 first edition.
