Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Facsimile Reprint of the original two-volume 1833 edition of the 'McLane Report' -- 'the only show in town.' (Executive Document No. 308, 1st Session, 22nd Congress), printed in Washington, D.C. by Duff Green. 2 leaves + Facsimile Reprint [xxvi, 1,050 pp; 889 pp]. Original cloth. A Near Fine set, without dust jackets (as issued). Reprints of Economic Classics. 'Although historians will doubtless go on disputing the impact of the tariff upon American economic development as long as they continue to draw breath, one of its benefits has been incontestable: it has been a major producer of information to the historian, whatever its costs or benefits to the domestic economy. . . . The McLane Report is one of the most substantial products of federal preoccupation with the tariff issue. . . . The Report plays an especially important role because no census of manufactures was undertaken in 1830, owing to the great dissatisfaction with the results of the 1820 census of manufactures. With all its limitations, therefore, it has long been treated by historians with the deference due to 'the only show in town.' The reprinting of the Report is a most welcome event' (Nathan Rosenberg, review for The Business History Review, Vol. 47, No. 1, Spring, 1973, pp. 106-8).
