‎First edition of Necker's seminal work which constitutes the very first public presentation of the French government's income and expenditures.The report stated that ordinary revenues in France were exceeding expenditure by over 10 million livres. The health of the accounts as reported in the Compte rendu boosted confidence among lenders and ordinary people, who saw Necker as a strong financial manager due to his prior work as a banker" the report strengthen his reputation further. As a consequence, the French government was able to raise new loans to pay for the costs of continued involvement in the American War of Independence. Thereby he used his economic skills not only to help the domestic economy but also as a mean of foreign political pressure. ""In 1781 Necker's famous Compte Rendu au Roi appeared, addressed rather to the public than to the head of the state. His popularity increased"" the success of his report, the first of its class, though incomplete, was great."" (The New palgrave)The French bankier Jacques Necker, who was appointed French Minister of Finance during three periods (1777-1781, 1788-1789, 1789-1790), was famous for his opposition to the physiocrats. He replaced Turgot in as Minister of Finance in 1776, and attacked Turgot's plan for free trade in grains. He initiated economic reforms which were designed to help the poor French economy. Instead of using the more traditional method of raising taxes he, on the contrary, raised the interest rates and kept the comparatively low income-tax. His will and ambitions to inform and educate the people together with the fact that he was a commoner made him popular with the people. Partly due to his public popularity, on July 11th 1789 he was dismissed, an act which caused public rioting. These riots, combined with the economic crisis and high inflated corn-prices, led to the storming of the Bastille on July 14th 1789.Einaudi 4094Mattioli 2549‎

Contemporary half calf, spine with raised bands, marbled boards. First work: Not in Kress (cf.: B.360 & B.361); not in INED; not in Einaudi; Goldsmiths 12183 & 12184. At least three issues appeared in 1781: two from the Imprimerie Royale and 1 from the Imprimerie du Cabinet du Roi. The latter was intended for royal use only and was not put in the trade. The Compte rendu was published in Monday, February 19 and fell on such fertile soil that even Necker must have been astonished at the eagerness with which the public seized upon the treatise, noting minutely every figure in the account, toting up the sums of revenue and expenditure, seeing how much the king spent on favors and pensions, adn what the royal household cost, and exactly what tribute was levied upon the people. .... But there was much more than figures in the treatise. Necker surveyed for the king (and the public) everything he had accomplished during his ministry. He expressed his ideas on reform and summarized what had been accomplished, and what he hoped to accomplish when the war (the American War of Independence) ended. The principles of moderate reform generated strong public support.Second work: Goldsmiths 13421; Einaudi 798; cf. Kress B.1173; not in INED.Third work: Discourses by Louis XVI, De Lamoignon, Loménie de Brienne, Dillon, d'Aligre, a.o.5th text: Not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.9th-16th text: Each text is the separate convocation of each individual province of France and it is interesting to note the differences of textual wording for each part of France.19th-20th texts: These are the formal texts with open spaces in the text where the names and dates were to be filled in.21st text: Not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.22nd text: Not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.23rd text: Kress B.1618; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.24th text: Kress B.1617; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.25th text: Kress B.1612; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.26th text: Not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.27th text: Kress B.1615; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.28th text: Not in Kress; not in Goldsmiths; not in Einaudi.- At end one leaf loose.
