"Improvement of British commerce formed the inspiration for Postlethwayt's final major works, Britain's Commercial Interests Explained and Improv'd and Great Britain's True System, both published in 1757. The former, though not a very innovative work, was especially strong on advocating expansion of the Union by including Ireland and encouraging agricultural improvement to cheapen the necessities of life, permitting lower wages and increased competitiveness in foreign markets. They were also designed to secure his own self-improvement through patronage, a strategy which was apparently unsuccessful. Together with the dictionary, these books contained the economic contributions for which Postlethwayt has been largely noted in the literature on the history of economic ideas." - Oxford DNB. Sabin, 64565.

First edition of the last published work by Malachy Postlethwayt (1707-1767), writer and government publicist under Robert Walpole's administration, from 1743-46 a member of the Royal Africa Company, and compiler of the Universal Dictionary of Trade and Commerce. Postlethwayt proposes a method of financing the ongoing Seven Years War which would not entail further taxes and public debt, and seeks a reorientation of British policy towards the continent. Always a realist, Postlethwayt's "vision was undiluted by vestiges of humanitarism" (The New Palgrave). Postlethwayt is a name with which, according to Schumpeter, every student of economics should be familiar. Writing of the work offered here, Schumpeter comments that 'he was intelligent enough to see the importance of Cantillon's book' (p. 372), the, then unpublished, Essay on the Nature of Trade in General; in the nineteenth century the lengthy, unacknowledged quotations from Cantillon in this work were used to dismiss Postlethwayt as a mere plagiarist (Oxford DNB). Schumpeter reads Postlethwayt's interpretation of 'interest as a payment to hoarders by those who stand in need of it, i.e. as a payment necessary in order to overcome people's reluctance to part with cash' as an early form of 'Lord Keynes' own-rate theory of interest' (p. 372).

In all of his works Postlethwayt showed himself to be deeply committed to the expansion and strengthening of English trade.

He favors a program of payment for war supplies on a yearly basis so as to avoid a large national debt with heavy interest payments which would be injurious to trade." (Bell) Bell P454.
