What Protection Does For The Farmer And Laborer: A Chapter Of Agricultural History

By Isaac Saunders Leadam

Book Overview

""What Protection Does For The Farmer And Laborer: A Chapter Of Agricultural History"" is a book written by Isaac Saunders Leadam and published in 1893. The book discusses the impact of protectionism on the agricultural industry in the United States during the late 19th century. Leadam argues that protective tariffs, which were designed to protect American farmers and laborers from foreign competition, actually had negative effects on the industry by raising prices for consumers and limiting access to foreign markets. The book provides a historical perspective on the debate over protectionism and its impact on the agricultural sector, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American agriculture and economic policy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
