Description: Paris, Frères Levrault, 1802. Two volumes in two. 8vo. 674 [375; 299] pp. Original blind wrappers with paper label on the spines. = A very early contribution to the sciences of ecology and climatology, and the influence of man, for instance due to deforestration, written by François-Antoine Rauch (1762-1837). Rauch made several suggestions to stop ecological detoriation and climate change. Rare. We found only one auction record. Uncut. Wrappers worn, front wrappers detached.
