  Henry Charles Carey Summary
Henry Charles Carey was born on Dec. 15, 1793, in Philadelphia, where his father was a leading bookseller and publisher.
Carey associated himself with the Republican party when it was established in the 1850s; the highly protectionist plank in the party platform of 1860 reflected his influence.
Carey's first large work on political economy was preceded and followed by many smaller volumes on wages, the credit system, interest, slavery, copyright, etc.; and in 1858-1859 he gathered the fruits of his lifelong labours into The Principles of Social Science, in three volumes.

 Henry C. Carey
Among Mathew Carey's many writings had been a collection (1822) of Essays on Political Economy, one of the earliest of American treatises favoring protection, and Henry C. Carey's life work was devoted to the propagation of the same theory.
Carey's first large work on political economy was preceded and followed by many smaller volumes on wages, the credit system, interest, slavery, copyright, etc.; and in 1858-59 he gathered the fruits of his lifelong labors into The Principles of Social Science, in three volumes.
Carey, who had set out as an earnest advocate of free trade, accordingly arrived at the doctrine of protection: the "coordinating power" in society must intervene to prevent private advantage from working public mischief.

Carey and Lea sold the major series of English and American law reports through their agent and bookseller P.H. Nicklin.
Due to a recent merger in the courts of appeals, he had become responsible for the equity reports as well as the law reports, and he explained to Carey and Lea that he would like to arrange a barter agreement to exchange his unsold books for editions of their reports that he wanted to acquire.
Carey and Lea must have responded by offering a publication contract rather than an exchange, for the title page of the two-volume edition of McCord's Equity Reports that went to press in late 1827 and 1829 lists Carey, Lea & Carey of Philadelphia as publisher.

 Maps from Carey and Lea's American Atlas
Instead of preaching overpopulation and degeneration of the human species, Carey illustrated the nations of the western hemisphere through maps that showed an expanding region with ample promise of developing into lands of great new opportunity and growth.
The sheets from this atlas, which cover North America, Central America, South America and the West Indies, are comprised of an engraved map surrounded by text documenting the history, climate, population and so forth of the area depicted.
No credit for this source appears on the map, but Carey and Lea were presently publishing Edwin James' official Report of that expedition, so they used the information in their own atlas published one year earlier.
