Synopsis

""The History of the English Corn Laws"" is a book written by Joseph Shield Nicholson and published in 1904. The book provides a comprehensive account of the Corn Laws, a series of tariffs and restrictions on the import and export of grain in England from the late 18th century until their repeal in 1846. Nicholson examines the origins of the Corn Laws, their impact on agriculture and trade, and the political and economic debates surrounding them. He also explores the social and cultural implications of the Corn Laws, including their role in exacerbating poverty and famine in Ireland.The book draws on a wide range of primary sources, including parliamentary reports, contemporary newspapers, and economic treatises. Nicholson's analysis is meticulous and detailed, making it a valuable resource for scholars and students of economic history.Overall, ""The History of the English Corn Laws"" is a seminal work on a critical period in British economic history. It sheds light on the complex and often contentious relationship between agriculture, trade, and politics in the early modern period, and offers insights into the broader social and economic changes that were transforming Britain during this time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
