In-12, broché, couverture de papier gris ancien de livraison, 23 p. Edition originale et unique. Le maréchal de Belle-Isle (1684-1761) était le petit-fils de Nicolas Fouquet, homme politique, maréchal de France et membre de l'Académie française. L'auteur recherche les moyens de résoudre la grave crise qui frappait le recrutement de la milice, conscription obligatoire dont la levée servait à compléter les armées royales. S'élevant contre les méthodes impliquant la violence ou la ruse, il soumet un vaste projet permettant de rendre le recrutement plus juste et plus utile à la société, en particulier en préservant les paysans nécessaires au pays et, par compensation, en supprimant les exemptions; particulièrement celles concernant les domestiques, peu utiles à la société, ainsi que celles des "enfants des petits bourgeois des villes" dont les parents seraient peu ou non imposables. WorldCat ne recense qu'un unique exemplaire de cette brochure dans le monde (National Libr. of Scotland). Elle manque au à la BnF et à l'ensemble des bibliothèques françaises. Bon exemplaire.

In-12, broché, couverture papier marbré, 51 p., vignette de titre. Baudeau Nicolas. Avviso al popolo sul bisogno suo primario o sia Trattato sulla macinatura de' grani e sul commercio delle farine. Firenze, Giovanni Battista Stecchi e Antonio Giuseppe Pagani, 1768. In-12° (mm 167x104). Pagine 51, [1]. Giglio inciso al frontespizio. Prima traduzione italiana de L'Avis au Peuple, apparso per la prima volta in lingua originale nel medesimo anno ad Amsterdam e Parigi, nella versione di Giacomo Paolo Lelorgne. L'opera divenne strumento per diffondere e sostenere la politica libertista avviata da Pietro Leopoldo, e venne spesso citata nelle proposte di legge e nei trattati economici che fioccarono in occasione della grave carestia agraria del 1772. "L'Avis au Peuple est un livre pratique, semi-technique, puisqu'il s'agit de mouture et de boulangerie; une oeuvre d'expédient, pourrait-on-dire, écrite en vue de remédier d'urgence à la cherté, enfin d'aider aux vues saines et généreuses de l'Administration, qui en de telles circonstances porte seule le poids de la misère du peuple et de l'ignorance des subministrations" (Weulersse). Esemplare privo di legatura, in buono stato di conservazione, un piccolo strappo al frontespizio. Timbro al frontespizio della Bibliotèque économique Lasteyrie.

8vo., Trade Edition, with coloured frontispiece (original captioned tissue guard present), title-vignette, 23 fine coloured plates (all original captioned tissue guards present) and endpaper maps on green stock, fore-edge very lightly dust-soiled; original green buckram, upper board blocked in gilt and pink, gilt back, expertly rebacked with original backstrip laid down, a very good, bright, firm copy. This copy is something of a curiosity, for it seems to match no recorded edition. Following Riall as closely as possible It is clearly a variant of the second issue of the Trade Edition: (a) gilt backstrip; (b) 24 plates; (c) no gilt top. BUT (a) upper board blocked in gilt and pink; (b) front and rear endpaper maps; (c) list of contents; (d) list of illustrations; (e) 'Little White Bird' on title verso. A VERY SCARCE UNRECORDED VARIANT. Latimore & Haskell makes no mention of this all; see Riall, pp.105-6
