economic policy but his fame as an economist rests largely on his treatise on agrarian reform' (Robert Sydney Smith, The Wealth of Nations in Spain and Hispanic America 1780-1830, JPE 65, no. 2, pp. 106-108). It is interesting to note that this first French translation was published in St. Petersburg, sumptuously produced and with a more political title, which pointedly indicates the convergence of private and public interest. Jovellanus, who had a rather varied political career, was in the late 1790s called to become Ambassador to Russia, but before he left Spain was made instead Minister of Justice; shortly afterward, however, he was arrested again for political reasons and spent the following 7 years in exile in Mallorca. Goldsmiths'-Kress 19186; OCLC lists copies at Yale and NEHA only; see Colmeiro 235 and Palau 125242 for first edition. Ice Cream and Sorbet 42. LANDRIANI, Gioseffantonio. La Pratica del Distillatore, e Confettiere Italiane…In cui s'insegna a far Conserve di Frutti, e di Agrumi, ed a formar Gelati, Mazapani, e Rosoglj d'ogni qualità. Pavia, [n.p.], 1785. £ 1000 12mo, pp. 76; uncut in contemporary decorated paper boards; some light damp-staining; corners worn; upper board lettered in manuscript. First edition, very rare, of this guide to the production of sorbets, ice creams and granitas. Of particular interest is the detailed description of cream ices and frozen custard, made with eggs, cream and sugar rather than flavoured water and sugar. Detailed instructions are given for the production of ices in the shape of various fruits - still today a mainstay of the elegant Italian gelateria. The second part is devoted to various recipes for marzipan, and the manufacture of marzipan fruits and vegetables. Smaller sections deal with liqueurs and flavoured drinks. Frozen custards became popular at the time, and this work was reprinted in 1816, 1820, and 1823. <strong>Rare</strong>, this first edition not in B.IN.G, Paleari, Westbury, Vicaire or Bitting; no copy of this first edition found in RLIN, OCLC or NUC; see B.IN.G 1084 and 1085 for later editions. Hamburg Maritime Law 43. LANGENBECK, Herman.

Hamburg, auf Kosten des Herrn Autoris, Johann Georg Piscator, 1727. £ 1000 4to, pp.60, 531, [37]; title page in red and black, woodcut initials and head and tail pieces and vignettes; very lightly browned throughout, due to paper quality; contemporary half vellum, sprinkled boards, gilt lettering directly to spine; corners bumped and spine darkened; still a good copy. First edition of Langenbeck's important history of Hamburg's maritime law. Langenbeck begins with the legislation of the Hanseatic League and Wisby's code of law. He states and explains usage of all aspects of the law as it affects maritime life, and gives clear reference to relevant codification. He starts with ship-building and its inherent legal problems, and discusses questions regarding the ship's crew, i.e. employment and discipline, lines of command, health and safety, and maritime jurisdiction. An extensive section deals with bottomry, i.e. the contract whereby the owner of a ship borrows money to enable the vessel to complete the voyage with the ship being pledged as security - and marine insurance. Chapters deal with shipwrecks, damaged ships, piracy, and mutiny. In further sections Langenbeck specifies marine jurisdiction and procedure as administered by the admiralty. Interestingly this also includes the wording of all oaths to be sworn by the ship's command, and makes special provisions to assist those seamen, who have been sold into slavery by pirates. Langenbeck (1668-1729), Hamburg senator and lawyer, came from a family of noted Hamburg jurists. A second edition of his work was published in 1740. Kayser, Hamburger Bücher p. 106; Schröder IV, 2155.6; OCLC lists copies at Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, Northwestern, University of Michigan Law Library and the US Naval Library.
