WITH EXTENSIVE AND HIGHLY CRITICAL MARGINALIA SISMONDI, Jean-Charles-Léonard Simonde de.
De la richesse commerciale, ou principes d’économie politique, appliqués à la legislation du commerce ... Tome premier [– second].
First edition of Sismondi’s original and important work, this copy filled with highly critical marginalia by a contemporary reader, who concludes his annotations with the cutting comment: ‘Voila bien le plus mauvais livre qui existe en France sur l’administration commerciale. Fasse le ciel qu'il soit le dernier.’ Occupying the margins of over 280 pages, these annotations represent an extraordinary engagement with Sismondi’s text, and certainly merit further research.
