Synopsis
Excerpt from England's Debt to India: A Historical Narrative of Britain's Fiscal Policy in India
In the ordinary course of nature, the man whom the shoe pinches is the best person to know about it but in politics the laws of nature are reversed. In judg ing of governments and rulers, it is they whose word is to be accepted and not that of the governed and the ruled.
Consequently to avoid that charge I have chosen to speak from the mouths of the English themselves.

England's Debt to India (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book by the author, originally published in 1917, is a historical accounting of the economic practices that the British government implemented in India during the mid-18th through the 19th centuries. The book's primary focus is an examination of the data that alleges that the British systematically extracted India's wealth through their economic policies, which crippled India's textile industry, drained her of her gold and silver reserves, and impoverished her people through methods such as the imposition of the salt tax. Through research and analysis of the practices, the author endeavors to illustrate how the British Empire's policies initiated the decline of Indian manufacturing, led to frequent famines, and impoverished the people. The book examines the many ways in which India's riches were drained away from the country. The author argues that under the British Raj, the average income of the Indian people fell dramatically while their tax burden increased. The book also analyzes how British rule led to the decline of traditional Indian industries, such as textiles and shipbuilding. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330477199_0
