This book refutes the arguments for Free Trade, exposing the fallacies that nineteenth-century policymakers relied on to justify ending tariffs. The author examines data from the time, revealing that predicted benefits—such as increased exports and lower prices for consumers—failed to materialize. Moreover, the book argues that Free Trade damaged important industries like agriculture and shipping. By examining the arguments, data, and consequences of Free Trade, the author provides a valuable historical perspective on a topic of ongoing relevance.
