First English edition; 7 x 4 3/4; pp. [2], 5-160, [8]; yellow, pictorial wraps; spotting to front wrap and a thin, discolored band to bottom margin of first few leaves; a bit of wear to edges and a small cut to fore-edge of front wrap; very faint gift inscription to top margin of front wrap; in about very good condition.Number 236 in publisher William Bryce's "Home Series," the book was the first English edition of Russian peasant philosopher Timofei Bondarev's "The Triumph of the Farmer or Industry and Parasitism," which was published only because of Tolstoy's involvement and the latter's going to great lengths to have the work released. His first two attempts were censored, but in 1888 the Russkoe Delo journal serialized it with an afterword by Tolstoy. In 1890, thanks to Tolstoy, it was translated and published in book form in French and right after - in English (the current edition) - by American novelist Mary Cruger (1834 - 1908). The text would be reverse-translated into Russian and published in condensed form by Posrednik in 1906.…
