1750152922London: 1750. First edition thus an abridgement of the 1736 pamphlet The Interest of Great Britain in Supplying Herself with Iron. "This tract is curious from the information which it affords respecting the production of iron at the time which the author estimates at 18000 tons. He states the difficulties with which the manufacture had to contend from the scarcity and high price of timber; and yet not very consistently complains of the importation of Swedish iron and still more bitterly of the establishment of iron works in our North American colonies. It is curious that not a word is said in this tract about the employment of pit-coal in the manufacture of iron; though Lord Dudley had taken out a patent for its application in 1619; and the practice of making iron by its means had been carried on to some extent at the works in Colebrook Dale since about 1740 or for ten years previously to the publication of this tract" McCulloch p. 238. Octavo 16pp. Sewn as issued uncut. Neat ink notation at head of title page. Minor creases and soiling a very good copy. ESTC T76989; Sabin 90635.

1715019811Paris. Very Good. 1715. Map. Lovely engraved map depicting Mexico City in the early 18th century. Map is on a 10 ¾" x 15 ¾" sheet that was taken from Nicolas de Fer's "L'Atlas Curieux" of 1715; no content on verso. Date of map was printed in upper margin along with the sheet number "125" and title; content in French. Hand-coloring is still bright. Map has very light toning to edges but is otherwise clean. This detailed map depicts Mexico City when it was surrounded by water and was linked to the mainland by the famous causeways originally designed by the Aztecs. Also pictured are aqueducts and farms and about 50 locations have been numbered on the map but the key is not present likely printed on another page in the Atlas. A beautiful map. . unknown books
