Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This captivating book unveils the story of a defiant and scandalous campaign led by renowned author Jonathan Swift against the imposition of debased copper coins in 18th century Ireland. Swift, revered for his wit and incisive social commentary, emerges as a champion of the oppressed, rallying his countrymen against an unjust and oppressive government scheme. Through a series of powerful letters, Swift exposes the fraudulent nature of the coinage, its potential to ruin the Irish economy, and the corrupt motives behind its introduction. The book immerses readers in the political and social climate of 18th century Ireland, highlighting the plight of the common people and the arrogance of those in power. It delves into the legal intricacies surrounding the government's prerogative to issue currency, revealing the ways in which authority can be abused. Swift's writings sparked a national movement, forcing the government to abandon the flawed coinage. This book not only sheds light on a pivotal moment in Irish history but also underscores the enduring power of resistance against tyranny, making it a valuable read for those interested in history, politics, and the enduring legacy of free speech. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
