= "Say's best-known work, his Traité d'économique politique (...) was intended as a shorter and more systematic presentation of economics than Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations. The success of this book made Say the best-known expositor of Smith in Europe and America, and he became in 1815 France's first professor of political economy. (...) The Traité d'économie politique also went beyond Smith in developing what Say called 'one of the most important truths of political economy' - that supply creates its own demand, the doctrine ultimately named Say's Law (...)".

"In 1832, while quarantined on his voyage to Alexandria to take up the post of vice-consul, de Lesseps passed the time by reading a copy of Lepère's report to Napoleon on the practicability of a canal connecting the Mediterranean with the Red Sea. Having befriended Mohammed Said, the viceroy's son and later himself viceroy, during his time in Egypt, on his resignation from the consular service in 1854 de Lesseps obtained the concession for the construction of a canal across the Isthmus of Suez. Undeterred by the practical and political objections he set about seeking capital to finance the project; "In this treatise of nearly three hundred pages, with maps... he set out the whole case for the canal and his proposed method of building it. He secured the support of Napoleon III and raised a capital of two hundred million francs. Construction was begun in 1859 and completed ten years later" (PMM).
