Engraved armorial bookplate of Tory politician John Pollexfen Bastard 1756-1816 in two of the three volumes. First Edition of the First English Census. Rickman a British government official and statistician drafted the bill that became the 1800 Census Act which established for the first time a national decennial census of Britain's general population. Rickman had been arguing for a national census since at least 1798 claiming that it would provide essential information to Britain's political military and industrial leaders-as well as giving a stimulus to the life insurance business! His arguments were given an additional boost with the publication of Malthus's Essay on the Principle of Population 1798 which spurred concerns about Britain's population and helped to break down resistance to the idea of compiling national population statistics. After the Census Bill passed Rickman helped to carry out the first four British censuses which included not only a population count but also the collection and analysis of parish register returns. .

A significant volume of the Tenth Census which greatly expanded the previously used methodologies. The Tenth Census was an important census as the methodology was greatly changed from previous years to improve accuracy: census districts were reduced in size many more census marshals were appointed in-person home visits of each household first required and many more fields of inquiry were established. Following a two-volume compendium the printed reports of the census of 1880 cover a wide range of subjects and occupy 22 large quarto volumes with the present volume being the one devoted to agriculture. In this census they greatly expanded inquiries regarding various crops including acreage for principal crops and included questions on farm tenure weeks of hired labor annual cost for fence building and repair fertilizer purchases and the number of livestock.
