FIRST EDITION. 220 x 130 mm. (8 5/8 x 5 1/8"). 2 p.l., ii, v-xix [1], 411, [1] pp. Agreeable contemporary black morocco, covers with an elaborate border in gilt and blind of numerous straight and decorative rules and scrolling foliate cornerpieces, raised bands, gilt in compartments with a central ornament in blind, turn-ins tooled in gilt, all edges gilt. Carefully rebacked, retaining original spine (hinges neatly reinforced with buckram). WITH A FORE-EDGE PAINTING DEPICTING A LANDSCAPE WITH A VERY LARGE CASTLE AND LAKE. With 13 pages of charts.

This is a pleasing copy, with an attractive fore-edge painting, of the final work of Scottish mathematician and economist Robert Hamilton (1743-1829).

The artist has rendered the details with subtlety (for example, the castle is faintly reflected in the lake), and the scene as a whole is brigher and richer in color than might be expected.…
