Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Great Britain for the Last Forty Years: Being an Historical and Analytical Account of Its Finances, Economy,& General Condition, During That Period The histories of nations are ordinarily made up of accounts of party struggles, intrigues, negociations, armaments and battles; and the condition of the great mass of the people is seldom inquired into, or treated of, except when reference is made to the means which that people are able to furnish to the ruling power. In the following pages it is proposed to pursue a different course; - to inquire into the workings of the principal causes which have affected the well-being of the people of Great Britain, during the eventful period of the last forty years; - to shew what were the peculiar circumstances which arose in that time; - to point out the nature of the measures adopted by the government; - to explain the general principles which were in active operation; - and to trace the whole of these causes to their final effects on the condition of the people.
