This book explores the complexities of the external corn trade, examining its impact on a nation's wealth, prosperity, and the well-being of its people. The author delves into the principles of internal and external corn trade, discussing the influence of trade on the subsistence, wealth, and prosperity of both exporting and importing countries. The book also considers the exceptions and limitations to these principles, such as forced agricultural expansion and the effects of taxation on the corn trade. The author challenges the belief that the value of subsistence diminishes domestic industry by encouraging foreign imports, arguing instead that commodities may be imported even when their production costs are higher abroad if the domestic producer has a comparative advantage in exporting other goods. The book concludes by applying these principles to the actual circumstances of the time, examining fluctuations in supply and price, as well as the impact of government policies on the corn trade. Ultimately, the book provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between corn trade and national welfare, emphasizing the need for a balanced approach that considers the interests of both producers and consumers.

The Essay on theE xternal Corn Trade having been, for a considerable time, ont of print, and a new edition being called for, the A nthor has availed himself of the opportunity thus afforded for revising the work, and for explaining the manner in which the Corn Laws have contributed to create the revulsion and embarrassment which have recently occurred. Since the publication of the first edition of this work, the Author has had the satisfaction of seeing the doctrines therein unfolded, sanctioned and confirmed by the authority of the principal writers who have, subsequently, directed their attention to the important subject of the Corn Laws.
