Excerpt from Free Trade Versus Fair Trade
For the following pages I am alone responsible. They contain an attempt 'to illustrate established truths, and to expose exploded -though not obsolete fallacies; but they-trench so closely on the politics of the day that I should have scarcely felt justified in writing them for publication Without the encourage ment of the President of the Board of Trade.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the contrasting approaches to trade taken by free traders and fair traders in the late 19th century, beginning with a comparison of the two schools of thought and their assumptions about the state of British trade. The author examines in depth the arguments of the Fair Trade League, who advocated protecting and stimulating Colonial trade with tariffs and retaliation against foreign powers. Each argument is analyzed and supported or refuted with evidence drawn from trade figures, historical examples, and economic principles. The author demonstrates that Free Trade has brought prosperity and growth, while Fair Trade policies would harm both Britain and its colonies. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of trade policy. It offers a balanced and evidence-based analysis of a complex and often misunderstood topic, demonstrating the importance of free trade principles and the dangers of protectionist policies.
