Item description from seller

Octavo. Pp. viii, 299, (1) publisher's ad of "The History of British India". HARDCOVER, contemporary full smooth calf, rebacked with handsome mottled calf, new endpapers, all edges sprinkled; original leather slightly rubbed at extremities. The 3 points in the Errata have been corrected in minute, very handsome contemporary hand in the appropriate places, of which two are on the same page. In fine condition, surprisingly bright interior. ~ Second, revised and corrected edition, by the "Author of The History of British India", an attribution which was removed in later editions. James Mill (1773-1836), British historian, philosopher, and economist. The FIRST EDITION of "Elements of Political Economy", "Mill's masterpiece", appeared in 1821. According to his son, John Stuart Mill, it originated in 1819 in instructions given to him by his father during their daily walks. The abstracts of these lessons, prepared by the son, served the father as notes from which to write his book. The work is considered as a summary representation of contemporary theories, in particular those of Malthus and Ricardo. It is said that Mill's principal services to political economy were indirect, among them to have been the father and the teacher of J. S. Mill. Several of the major alterations in Mill's work were founded on criticisms made by his son. (Palgrave. 1894-1901). Kress C.1295. Goldsmith 24051. Einaudi 3893. OCLC 6783509. A-1.…
