Smith, Adam. AN INQUIRY INTO THE NATURE AND CAUSES OF THE WEALTH OF NATIONS…. IN THREE VOLUMES… THE TENTH EDITION. London: printed by Strahan for T. Cadell Jun. and W. Davies, 1802. 8vo, 3 vols. Xii, 499, [1]; [2], vi, 518, [6]; vii, [1], 465, [51] pp. Includes half-titles to each volume, ad at rear of third volume, one of the contents leaves at the front of third volume is bound just out of place. Bound in full period marbled calf, rebacked with sheep, gilt. A nice early edition of Smith's foundational work on free-market economics. Framer's of the United States Constitution drew from Smith's ideas, and Thomas Jefferson believed this book to be the greatest work on political economy in existence at the time.
