Through new and previously unpublished photos, this beautiful volume re-creates the atmosphere the owners and their guests must have felt as they walked through the gardens, and captures the fleeting, ephemeral moment that is a garden." - from dust jacket. English translation of the French first edition, "De folie en folies". Clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear. Slight lean to spine. Dust jacket now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart cover. Lovely copy of this beautiful work. Book

In-8, broché, couverture papier bleu fort (rel. moderne), (4), iv, 91 p. Première et unique traduction française de 'Saggio sopra il commercio generale delle nazioni d'Europa'. Historien et économiste, Saverio Scròfani (Modica 1756 - Palerme 1835) était un adepte convaincu des Physiocrates dont on retrouve les doctrines dans cet essai, particulièrement en matière de liberté du commerce des grains. Alors professeur d'agriculture à Venise et surintendant de l'agriculture et le commerce avec le Levant., l’auteur passa à Paris, puis à Naples où il devint directeur de la statistique (1814-22), poste dont il fut démis pour ses opinions libérales. Tableaux statistiques. (Coquelin & Guillaumin, II, 601. Goldsmiths-Kress, n°18239.17). Larges auréoles et traces de mouillures. Accrocs et manques de papier aux 3 premiers feuillets sans perte de texte.
In-12, plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos à nerfs orné de compartiments fleuronnés et cloisonnés, tranches rouges, xviij, iv, 435, (1) p. L'édition la plus complète, remise en vente de l'édition de 1755, en grande partie originale, considérablement augmentée par rapport à la première publiée en 1753 à l'insu de l'auteur. Elle contient pour la première fois 'l'Essai sur les prix' (avec des Tableaux statistiques, p. 243 à 255) et 'l'Essai sur l'agriculture', soit la moitié de l'ouvrage. Ce livre, "accueilli par d'Argenson avec enthousiasme, exerça une action immédiate sur l'administration et sera cité pendant quinze ans comme faisant autorité" (Weulersse). Néo-mercantiliste et agrarien, Herbert fut l'un des premiers à plaider en faveur de la liberté du commerce des grains. Il avait été directeur des carosses publics de Bordeaux. (Higgs, 1474. Kress, 5617. Cette édition manque à Einaudi et à Goldsmiths). Reliure épidermée, coiffes et coins usés. Intérieur frais.
