An Essay On The State Of England; In Relation To Its Trade, Its Poor, And Its Taxes, For Carrying On The Present War Against France

By John Cary

A sharp, compassionate gaze at a nation at war and a people pressed to pay the price. An Essay On The State Of England invites you to rethink how a country labours, taxes, and trades when conflict governs everyday life. This historical economic treatise offers a clear, accessible critique of public policy and wartime finance, tracing british trade policy, taxation of the poor, and economic relief during wartime with a scholar's rigor and a citizen's concern. Read as both late eighteenth-century analysis and a living tool for today, it blends economic history comparison with the textures of early modern britain, placing Adam Smith contemporaries in conversation with enduring questions about state power, markets, and welfare. It is more than a historical document; it's a policy makers toolkit, presented with precision and human insight. Alpha Editions is honoured to restore this important work. Out of print for decades and now republished, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure that speaks to casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike. Keywords weave through the narrative with natural fluency: historical economic treatise, public policy critique, war time analysis, british trade policy, taxation of the poor, economic relief during wartime, policy makers toolkit, academic reference work, late eighteenth century, early modern britain, economic history comparison, adam smith contemporaries.
