HISTOIRE d'un peuple nouveau, ou découverte d'une isle à 43 degrés 14 minutes de latitude méridionale par David Tompson, capitaine du vaisseau Le Boston, à son retour de la Chine en 1756. Ouvrage traduit de l'Anglais.

A Londres, Aux dépens d'une Société de Libraires, 1757 (Paris, EDHIS, 1976). 2 volumes in 1. vi, (2), 158, (4) pp.; 138 pp. 8vo. Bound. Hartig 55 (1756 as date); not in Negley; not in Trousson. Reprint of this very rare work, limited to an edition of 150 numbered copies and 30 copies not destined for the trade. The only utopian work of the time based on religious sentiments and the bible. No difference between the races; all men are brothers. This text, a supposed translation, remained practically unnoticed: only van Wijngaarden in his 'Les Odyssées philosophiques' devoted a longer study to this important text.
