An Essay on the Principle of Population

Thomas Robert Malthus · J. Johnson, London · 1798

No book-club issue exists for a 1798 imprint. The documented reprint tells are the Royal Economic Society facsimile (London: Macmillan, 1926), which reprints the 1798 text with notes by James Bonar and reproduces the original title page — the Bonar notes and the 1926 imprint give it away — and modern reprint-house editions, such as The Lawbook Exchange's 2007 hardcover reprint of the first edition, which carries an ISBN. Any copy with an ISBN, machine-made paper, a photographically reproduced title page, or modern publisher's casing is a reprint.
