"L'A. mostra di essere ben informato delle principali questioni né manca di critica [...] Ma, accanto a spunti interessanti e moderni, risaltano pregiudizi di antica data che l'A. aveva in parte assimilato dalla lettura di Agostino Gallo e Casimiro Affaitati. L'opera dell'A. vuole tuttavia avere un intento più vasto, fornendo, accanto ai precetti di agricoltura, un vero e proprio insegnamento morale, che, nell'ambito della dottrina cristiana, riprende dai classici georgici greci e latini i motivi idillici dell'amore della natura e della quiete della vita campestre e familiare. Chiude il trattato un compendio di storia sacra dal Bossuet. L'interesse che l'opera suscitò è attestato dalle numerose edizioni curate ancora nel corso del sec. XIX" (DBI, s.v.).One work in 5 volumes. 8° (195x120 mm). I. [8], 321, [3] (of 19, lacking quire chi8) pages; pages 1-6 are bound between quire p2 (half-title and title-page) and quire *2 (Index); II.
