Philadelphia: P. H. Nicklin & T. Johnson, Law Booksellers. Very Good. 1838. First Edition. Hardcover. Scarce first edition in later clean brown cloth with gilt lettering on spine. Hinges & text tight and intact. (xvi, pp13-415). Foxing mainly first & last few pages. Small ding in front cover near hinge. From the BIOGRAPHICAL DICTIONARY OF AMERICAN ECONOMISTS: "His thinking is largely orthodox and classical; he is a proponent of laissez-faire and opposes government intervention in the economy. He criticizes current economic thinking for its limitations, but believes Adam Smith and his successors are broadly following the right lines. In Principles of Political Economy, Vethake shows awareness of the need to broaden the classical concept of value, and shows it can be applied to technology and to knowledge". Usiana, Business, Economics, Finance, Banking. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 415 pages .

Whitaker was an outspoken Whig, zealously supporting the cause of the colonists and during the Revolution he published several pamphlets on his political opinions. He also accompanied Reverend Samson Occom, an educated member of the Mohegan tribe to Scotland and England to raise funds for the establishment of an institution for the education and Christianization of the North American Indians. This document attests that Hannah, Wife of Vera? Johnson is a member in good standing of the Third Church of Christ in Salem and therefore recommended as a member of any church "which hold and teach the doctrine of Grace as exhibited in the well-known confession of faith…".-
