Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an exhaustive analysis of the dire state of Britain's public finances and war debts amidst the American Revolution. The author, drawing from extensive economic data from sources including government budgets and financial statements, calculates that by 1775, Britain's national debt had reached an astronomical £140 million, fueled by excessive military spending and unsustainable borrowing. The book highlights the government's wasteful expenditure, mismanagement of funds, and the heavy burden placed on British taxpayers. It argues that the pursuit of the American war was both unjust and financially reckless, and warns that without drastic changes, Britain faces economic ruin. This meticulously researched and powerfully argued book provides valuable insights into the intersection of war, politics, and economics, and its lessons remain highly relevant to contemporary discussions about public debt and fiscal responsibility.
