Second Greatly Enlarged Edition marking the first appearance of Volume II. The first volume was originally published as The Conquest of Syria Persia and Egypt by the Saracens in 1708. The work was based upon a manuscript in the Bodleian Library which was initially ascribed to the Arabic historian El-Wákidi with additions from other sources. However the manuscript was later proved to be a work of dubious historical accuracy. "But although many of its details require correction the importance of Ockleys work in relation to the progress of oriental studies cannot be overestimated. Following in the steps of Pococks famous Specimen Historiae Arabum but adopting a popular method and recommending it by an admirable English style Ockley for the first time made the history of the early Saracen conquests attractive to the general reader and stimulated the student to further research. With all its inaccuracies Ockleys History of the Saracens became a secondary classic and formed for generations the main source of the average notions of early Mohammedan history. Gibbon did not disdain to use it freely." DNB The work earned for Ockley the chair of Arabic at Cambridge in 1711. Graesse V 7-8. London: Printed for R.Knaplock, J.Sprint, R.Smith , 1718. unknown

1820ref. 140851London: no publisher 1820. First edition extracted from The Pamphleteer volume XVII no XXXIV. In 1815 Simon Gray had published his treatise on population The Happiness of States as an open rejection of many of Malthus's principles. Previously Malthus's theories has been broadly accepted without major opposition but Gray's attack was rapidly followed by other critiques most notably John Weyland and Kenneth Grahame's. The present essay was a lengthy refutation of the principles Malthus had outlined in his chapter "Observations on Productive and Unproductive Labor" in The Principles of Political Economy; Gray countered that all classes of society were economically productive.

ref. 7646London: 1763-85. No binding. Very Good. 420 x 500 mm. etching on fine thick paper with large margins in good condition. A magnificent series of extremely high quality etchings of great rarity. The first Earl Harcourt was governor to the royal princes and in the early 1750s his children George Simon the Viscount Nuneham and Lady Elizabeth Harcourt took lessons in drawing from Richard Dalton and landscape from George Knapton Joshua Kirby and Alexander Cozens. It is known that they on occasion were taught in the company of the royal princes. The Harcourt family had owned Stanton Harcourt in Oxfordshire since the Norman Conquest but in 1712 had acquired Newnham Courtenay. The first Earl moved the family there and renamed it Nuneham. Also associated with the family at this time was the great artist Paul Sandby 1725-1809. In 1760 a painting of his of Nuneham was exhibited at the Society of Artists. The Viscount 1736-1809 was a Francophile at heart and loved the old family home which connected himself to the Normans. Like his father he was a patron of the arts although at the more extreme for the period. He befriended Rousseau who actually stayed with him during his exile from France. In 1760 Nuneham drew two images plates I & IV of the old Stanton-Harcourt family home. In the same year Paul Sandby provided a third critically acclaimed the best. In 1763 Nuneham etched the three and produced a fourth drawing which he etched the following year. His contemporary Horace Walpole wrote on 16 March 1763 that the first two prints were ""the richest etchings I ever saw and masterly executed"". He noted also that Nuneham was planning two more. Despite the statements on the prints to the contrary there is some evidence from the pencil notes of Sandby that it was he who drew the original views. In 1785 Viscount Nuneham the then second Earl Harcourt presented the original copperplates for the series of four views to the Society of Antiquaries. A second edition offered here dedicated to the Society was printed in the same year.
