Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fiscal Reform: Speeches Delivered by the Right Hon. Arthur James Balfour, M. P., From June 1880 to December 1905 Any volume consisting mainly of speeches, of speeches all upon one subject, and of speeches for the most part uncorrected, requires an apology from its compiler. The apology which I have to offer is that by collecting in a shape convenient for reference my various utterances on fiscal policy I earn the gratitude of two numerous and deserving classes in the community - those who wish to have easy access to one side, at least, of the controversy, and those in search of materials wherewith to attack the author. Both will be saved, by this otherwise inexcusable proceeding, from the annoyance and trouble of grubbing among old newspapers or dust-begrimed Hansards; and in consideration for so great a relief they will perhaps forgive me for making no effort to turn the volume into anything even distantly resembling literature. The attempt must have been laborious, since it is much harder work correcting speeches than making them. It would also have been vain, since no amount of linguistic pruning will convert a mediocre speech into a tolerable essay.
