    This six-volume facsimile collection reprints seven publications from the 17th to early 19th century, which conceptually influenced Robert Malthus and his Population - one of the most significant works in the history of thought. All are rare and difficult-to-find texts which have never been reprinted before.

    Volume I: The Primitive Origination of Mankind.  Volume II: A Six Month’s Tour through the North of England.  The Farmer’s Tour through the East of England.  The Question of scarcity plainly stated and remedies considered (1800), c.100 pp. Volumes III–V: A Journey through Spain in the years 1786 and 1787.  Volume VI: A Philosophical Survey of the Animal Creation.  A Letter to the Rev. T.R. Malthus.
