8vo, 49 pp., pleasantly rebound in cloth-backed boards. First edition. The writer describes himself as "an individual engaged in manufactures and the occupation of ground, and has peculiar opportunities for becoming acquainted with the state of the labourer." His stated object was to illustrate "that the improvements in machinery, within a late period, have a tendency to reduce the demand for human labour, so that there neither is, or can be, sufficient employment for the entire of the labouring population." Uncommon; five copies located on Library Hub and WorldCat. Not in Kress.
