AN INQUIRY INTO THE NATURE AND CAUSES OF THE WEALTH OF NATIONS
by SMITH, Adam
- Used
- Hardcover
London: W. Strahan & T. Cadell, 1778. Second Edition. Hardcover. Some foxing and browning, heavier in the first volume which has the front free endpaper and the title strengthened at the inner and outer margins. Occasional slight offsetting to the text in the second volume which has the final gathering strengthened in the gutter. Very Good set in a contemporary binding. Two large quarto volumes (8-1/2" x 10-3/4"); [8], 510; [8], 589, [1] pages. Complete with half-title in Volume II (no half-title called for in Volume I). Contemporary calf leather, rebacked, with original gilt spines and morocco labels laid down; corners renewed. First published in 1776, this Second Edition is scarcer than the first with only 500 copies printed and is the only other edition published in quarto format. "The second edition exhibits a number of alterations large and small, some providing new information, some correcting matters of fact, some perfecting the idiom, and a large number now documenting references in footnotes" (William B. Todd, in the 1976 Oxford edition of THE WEALTH OF NATIONS). Adam Smith (1723-1790) spent ten years in the writing and perfecting of THE WEALTH OF NATIONS. The book succeeded at once, and the first edition was exhausted in six months. Goldsmith 11663; Grolier, 100 English, 57; Kress B.154; PRINTING AND THE MIND OF MAN 221: "The certainty of its criticism and its grasp of human nature have made it the first and greatest classic of modern economic thought." Armorial bookplate of Gorham Parsons on the front pastedown of each volume.
