Edition Notes
Translation of Holbach's Le bon sens; ou Ide es naturelles oppose es aux ide es surnaturelles. Incorrectly attributed to Constantin Volney by Evans.
Apparently a false imprint. On the title page of another issue (Evans 29820), the place of publication is given as New York. Probably both are deceptive. Page [204] contains a copyright notice by "Isaiah Thomas the third" of the "District of Massachusetts."This is also a fabrication. The printers Isaiah Thomas (1749-1831) and his son Isaiah (1773-1819), both of Worcester, Mass., had no progeny of the same name. The ornamental headband on p. [11] is not found in works printed by Thomas ca. 1790-1799, though he did use others reminiscent of it in design and execution. It is however, a slightly differing copy of one frequently employed during this period by Leornard Worcester, who printed at Thomas' press both for Thomas and under his own name.
Signatures: A-Mı́ Nœ́.
Error in paging: p. 76 misnumbered 67.
Of the issue with the New York imprint Shipton & Mooney note that "All located copies have the derogatory statement about priests cut out of p. 137." The same is true of the American Antiquarian Society copy of the present issue.
"Errata."--p. [204]
