1809rif. 180832Edinburgh: for Mundell Doig and Stevenson; Lackington Allen and Co. Cradock and Joy and T. Hamilton London; and Wilson and Son York 1809. One of the few works in its field to have achieved classic status Second Edinburgh edition of the "first and greatest classic of modern economic thought" PMM. This edition includes a 66-page Life of Smith and two essays by Germain Garnier 1754-1821 comparing Smithian economics with the contemporary approach of the French school. The British copyright for the Wealth of Nations expired in 1804. The following year William Playfair 1759-1823 brought out in London an edition universally derided for its editorial liberties and for exorcising any suggestion of Smithian radicalism in the aftermath of the French Revolution. The first Edinburgh edition criticized Playfair extensively but by 1809 the debate had moved on and these criticisms have been themselves been exorcised here. Following the first publication of the Wealth of Nations in 1776 Smith moved to Edinburgh to take up a post as commissioner of customs. He remained in the city until his death in 1790. Scotland informed much of his analysis in the Wealth of Nations which was written in Kirkcaldy 11 miles north of the capital. For Donald Winch Smith was "a North Briton who regarded Scotland not merely as his home but as the best place from which to observe the affairs of the capital with the minimum of involvement in party politics" ODNB. 3 vols octavo 207 x 128 mm.

1801rif. 177821Dublin: Printed by N. Kelly and William Porter for P. Wogan Gilbert and Hodges W. Porter J. Moore and B. Dornin 1801. Political economy and the Anglo-Irish union Fourth Irish edition of the "first and greatest classic of modern economic thought" PMM in a handsome contemporary Irish binding. Towards the end of the Wealth of Nations Smith outlines an expansive and audacious plan for the political-economic consolidation of the British Empire. In this plan Ireland was to be united with Great Britain in a move largely modelled on the Anglo-Scottish union of 1707. Smith stresses the political and economic benefits to the Irish anticipating that the move would end British trade restrictions and even neutralize the fractious nature of Irish politics. Ironically Smith's wider theories of political economy in the Wealth of Nations were often co-opted by Irishmen diametrically opposed to his political proposals most notably the United Irishman Arthur O'Connor 1763-1852 whose approach to democratic land reform was "a radicalised version of Smith's political economy" Andersen. The United Irishmen mounted a rebellion in 1798 the failure of which led to precisely the Anglo-Irish union advocated by Smith. This fourth Irish edition was the first to be published in the newly formed United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. 2 vols octavo 204 x 131 mm pp. xiii 1 498; viii 489. 61; lacking blank A1 in vol.

1796rif. 180931Philadelphia: Printed by Thomas Dobson 1796. In an unrestored binding from the early years of the republic Second American edition of the "greatest classic of modern economic thought" PMM a key influence on the founding fathers and the development of the young republic. First published in 1776 the Wealth of Nations includes several sections focusing on specifically American concerns. The work analyses the deteriorating British-American relationship at length and reflects approvingly on several aspects of American life most particularly the colonial separation between church and state. The work consequently won praise and attention from the founding fathers: Madison included it in his list of core items for the proposed congressional library while Jefferson judged it "the best book extant" on political economy quoted in Fleischacker p. 903. For Fleischacker the influence was still more fundamental: "America has a Constitution that in the functions it gives to government the structure its sic provides for the military and the strict separation it proclaims between religious and secular powers fits Smith's conception of politics better than any government of his day" p. 924. 3 vols duodecimo 172 x 103 mm.

Light wear front joint of Vol. I cracked slight loss to spine ends minor browning foxing and offsetting to contents: a very good copy.
