E.O. - First Edition – Due volumi in 8vo di XX-389-(3) pagine, e (4)-474-(2) pagine. Legatura coeva in pien a pelle, piccole mancanza agli angoli e al dorso del primo volume. Firma di possesso al titolo (D'Ales Latour). - Prima edizione di questa opera vicina alle idee dei fisiocratici, considerata come una delle più interessanti proposte di riforma globale della società del tempo. Tra l'altro l'autore propone, come garanzia di pace, una Confederazione Europea. Il benessere pubblico viene garantito da “une agriculture florissante, une popolation nombreuse et aisée, la liberté et l'habitude de l'instruction, et enfin une paix durable ou rarement interrompue” (Ined 4116).
Cinque volumi in 8° di (4)-CXXVII-368pp; (4)-493pp; (4)-564pp; (4)-556pp; (4)-588pp. Ritratto di Smith inciso da Prevost al primo volume. Legatura coeva in mezza pelle, dorsi lisci dorati. Tagli gialli. Bella copia. Prima edizione di questa traduzione e del classico commento del Garnier. La stessa edizione esiste anche con fogli di errata a ogni volume. Ma questa sembra essere più rara: “All editions usually having at the end of each volume an errata-leaf. Here; however, all the errors have been corrected and the errata-leaf is not present... Is the improved version of the first edition of this classic translation” scrive il Catalogo 53 di Gerits, che lo valuta appunto più degli esemplari con errata. Vanderblue, p. 25; K.E. Carpenter, The Dissemination of the Wealth of Nations in French and in France, p. 175; Kress B.4604; Goldsmiths 18412; Einaudi 5340.

Legatura coeva uniforme in piena pelle, dorso a nervi ornato e dorato con doppio tassello (ne manca uno al tomo 2); minime usure ai margini; risguardie con carta marmorizzata; tagli rossi. Condizioni molto buone per questo set raro da trovarsi completo delle 37 tabelle. Nello stesso anno furono pubblicate l'edizione in 4° (considerata l'e.o.) e questa in formato piccolo. "Ouvrage capital qui devait, un siècle durant et meme au-dela, demeurer la meilleure synthese sur les opérations de Law replacées dans leur développement historique. L'exceptionelle compétence de l'auteur, son objectivité, son souci de documentation complète, l'intelligence de ses interpretations, concourent à en faire le meilleur historien du Système de Law jusqu'au milieu du XIX" (Bibliographie in Edgar Faure, La Banqueroute de Law, p. 705). Per Mc Culloch "the best work on history of French Finances".

Prima edizione in 12°, dello stesso anno di quella in 4° delle prime quattro parti dell’opera fondamentale del movimento fisiocratico. Una 5° e 6° parte vennero poi pubblicate nel 1760. Eccezionale la presenza al termine della quarta parte (Questions interessantes...) delle pagine di modifica del testo, pagg. 145-150, che ad opera del legatore o nelle tirature successive sono quasi sempre integrate, sopprimendo le ultime sei pagine dello stampato originale.
xvi, 448, x, 449-1095 pages. Index. Graphs. Issued without dust jackets. VIII upon copyright page presumably indicates this set to be from the eighth printing. Former library copy with most associated markings removed. Bindings intact. A sound vintage copy of this classic work in which Schumpeter "recommends no policy, limiting his study to scientific analysis of the economic process. Schumpeter's theory of business cycles is consistent with his theory of economic development and presents some alternatives to Mitchell's approach, which was different in many ways." - Hutchinson 734.

A rare surviving copy of this important reference made all the more engaging by today's environment of competing fiat currency devaluations. "Hitherto Numismatists when stydying the Origines of Coinage had confined themselves to the materials presented to them in the earliest money of Lydia Greece and Italy and on the other hand the Metrologists had almost completely limited their range of observation to the systems of Babylon Egypt Greece and Rome. As the Comparative Method has yielded such excellent results in the study of other human institutions I have endeavoured by its aid to get some new principles which may throw some fresh light on the first beginnings of monetary and weight systems." - from Preface.

[4], 284pp., running title at head of final two leaves slightly shaved, 9013 items. 2 works bound in one, 8vo (205 x 125 mm), cont. half calf, rebacked, corners rubbed, spine gilt. Thomas Jennet (1769-1846) bookseller and printer, a native of Kirkdale, Yorkshire, was apprenticed to, and later partnership with, Robert Christopher, trading as 'Chrisopher & Jennet'. After Christopher's death in 1819 Jennet traded alone. He was the most important printer in Stockton, a magistrate and three times Mayor. After his death the business was continued as 'Jennet & Co'. A search of both Copac and OCLC fails to find any catalogues issued by Jennet. Emerson Charnley I (1782-1845) bookseller and politician, son of William and Elizabeth, 'the veteran emperor of Northumbrian booksellers' according to Dibdin who stayed with him in 1834. He published many important catalogues of antiquarian books until he gave up that side of his business to concentrate on new books in 1843. He supplied 'Literary societies, mechanics societies, book clubs, village libraries, schools... on the most liberal terms' according to an advertisement of 1839. He was active in Newcastle politics, his shop being the headquarters of the Whigs on the town council. Succeeded by his son, Emerson II.
