What Our Customers Say...
Description
Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce
In the publisher's wraps.
A very scarce pamphlet containing a transcribed conversation, "nearly verbatim", between a Gentleman and a Farmer on a steam boat.
They discuss the pros and cons of the Corn Laws, which were tariffs and other trade restrictions on imported food and corn enforced in the United Kingdom between 1815 and 1846.
The rear notes that the work was issued by the Anti-Corn-Law League, a successful political movement that aimed to abolish these unpopular laws.
