Excerpt from The Revolt of Protectionists in the United States Against Their Tariff

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the causes of the public revolt against the Aldrich Tariff of 1909 in the United States. The author argues that the tariff was a product of corruption and greed, and that it resulted in higher prices for consumers and lower wages for workers. The book also discusses the methods used to pass the tariff, and the impact it had on the American economy. Ultimately, the book argues that the revolt against the Aldrich Tariff was a sign of the growing discontent with the status quo, and that it helped to pave the way for the Progressive Era.
