A Paris, Chez H. Agasse, an X, 1802. With engraved portrait by Prevost. 5 volumes. (4), cxxvii, (1), 368 pp.; (4), 493, (1) pp.; (4), 564 pp.; (4), 556 pp.; (4), 588 pp. 8vo. Contemporary half calf, marbled boards, vellum corners, spines gilt in compartments with labels with gilt lettering. Vanderblue, p. 25; K.E. Carpenter, The Dissemination of the Wealth of Nations in French and in France, p. 175 and pages lvii-lviii; Kress B.4604; Goldsmiths 18412; Einaudi 5340. Apparently a rare edition. 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. Our copy is identical with the one described by Einaudi. Compared with copies usually appearing on the market it is clear that this edition was entirely newly printed. It is the improved version of the first edition of this classic translation, which became the standard French text, with the valuable notes by Garnier. His notes and observations were frequently reprinted after they had been translated for the Glasgow edition of 1805. - Front blank in first volume loosening.
