Brasted - RJ has received a very positive letter from Lord Lansdowne concerning RJ's book ['An Essay on the Distribution of Wealth and the Sources of Taxation', 1832]: 'he had read it with the attention it so eminently deserves'. Having thus read the book he concluded that they [Ricardians] had fallen 'into error by reasoning too much from narrow grounds and that he values proportionably better views - sound inductions etc.'. Lansdowne wants RJ to call on him when in London. 'I am pleased - it is a good and leading opinion gained and apparently strongly gained and apparently strongly pronounced and you whose reputation is more than half committed to the book will not I am sure be above being pleased too'.
