Turgot His Life, Times, And Opinions; Two Lectures (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt From Turgot His Life, Times, And Opinions; Two Lectures These Lectures Were Delivered, During February, 1868, At Bradford, Edinburgh, And Glasgow, And More Recently At Birmingham And In London. After They Had Been Delivered At The Edinburgh Philosophical Institution, For Which They Were Written, - I Would Have Published Them, As I Was Requested To Do, Had I Not Intended To Make Them The Groundwork Of A. More Elaborate History Of TurgotS Times, And A Much More Complete Analysis Of His Writings. Having, However, Been Lately Informed By My Friend Mr. John Morley That He Has Been For Some Time Engaged In Preparing A Life Of Turgot, Which Is To Appear, By Instal Ments, In The Fortnightly Review, I Have Abandoned This Intention For The Present, And It May Be Altogether, In The Belief That The Work Is In Very Able Hands, And That, When Finished, It Will Leave Little To Be Added Or Desired.
