175042149London 1750. 8vo. 6 7/8 x 4 1/4 inches. 15 pp. An abridgement of the Interest of Great Britain in supplying herself with Iron circa 1747. Half red morocco and marble paper boards. Marginal notes trimmed<br/> <br/> A conflicted call for economic protectionism on the eve of industrial transformation and a snapshot of British iron trade policy in 1750 caught between timber tariffs and transatlantic competition.<br/> <br/> An important and revealing mid-eighteenth-century pamphlet addressing the British iron industry at a moment of significant economic and technological transition. This work is considered an abridged version of The Interest of Great Britain in Supplying Herself with Iron published circa 1747 and offers a pointed critique of foreign and colonial competition in iron production. The anonymous author provides a rare quantitative estimate of domestic iron output 18000 tons annually and laments the numerous challenges facing British ironmasters including the rising cost and increasing scarcity of timber then still the primary fuel used in smelting. In a notably conflicted argument the tract decries the influx of Swedish iron while expressing even greater alarm over the growth of ironworks in Britain's North American colonies viewing both as threats to the domestic market. Strikingly the pamphlet makes no mention of the use of pit coal i.e. mineral coal in iron manufacturing a technological development that would prove pivotal. This omission is particularly curious given that Lord Dudley had patented the process in 1619 and that Abraham Darby's pioneering use of coke at Coalbrookdale had been underway for over a decade by the time of this publication. The absence of such a reference suggests either a conservative industrial perspective or a lack of awareness of emergent metallurgical practices that would soon transform the industry and pave the way for Britain's dominance during the Industrial Revolution. Referenced by J.R. McCulloch in his A Select Collection of Scarce and Valuable Tracts on Commerce 1859 who found it "curious" for its data and omissions alike this tract provides not only valuable insight into 18th-century economic policy and protectionist sentiment but also a fascinating snapshot of the iron trade on the cusp of technological upheaval.<br/> <br/> ESTC T76989; Sabin 90635.

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.
