Leipzig, Friedrich Leopold Supprian, 1796. 8vo, pp. xx, 144, with 3 folding engraved plates; a finecopy in contemporary half calf and marbled boards, gilt spine with red label. Contemporary oval collector's stamp on verso of title page, cancelled. Rare first edition of a detailed work on the design and construction of low cost farm buildings, including a detailed chapter on building brewing houses for beer production and distilleries. Attention is paid to improved roof coverings and fire-safety. He particularly recommends clay roof tiles as a well-insulated, economical and safe alternative to burnt tiles or thatched roofs. Touchy (d. 1808), an economist and general official, published this work under the pseudonym 'C.F. Bär'. He gives advice on building materials and general rules and regulations. In the final part, he gives detailed cost calculations for the buildings of some of his designs, illustrated on the engraved plates.Weller, Pseudonymen, p. 57; not in NUC, OCLC or RLIN.
