RAYNAL (G.T). HISTOIRE PHILOSOPHIQUE ET POLITIQUE DES ETABLISSEMENS ET DU COMMERCE DES EUROPEENS DANS LES DEUX INDES. Neuchatel et Genève, chez les Libraires Associés, 1783-84. 10 vol. in-8, marbled basane, gilt fillet on covers, smooth spine decorated, red tr. Along with Rousseau's Discourse on Inequality, this work was at the origin of a profound movement of opinion for the abolition of slavery. To commission this work, Abbé Raynal gathered around him a host of collaborators, all philosophers, d'Holbach, Naigeon and above all Diderot, who wrote at least a third of it. Decorated with a portrait of the author and 9 engraved frontispieces. Some spotting, otherwise a good copy.
