Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book makes a significant contribution to the canon of Irish political studies. The author, a renowned Irish patriot of the 18th century, provides a sharp critique of the British government's economic policies in Ireland. The book is set against the backdrop of the ongoing debate over British imperialism and the subjugation of Ireland. The main subject is a dispute over the introduction of a new copper coinage for Ireland, which the author argues would have been disastrous for the Irish economy. By contextualizing the debate within the broader history of Anglo-Irish relations, the author reveals how the British government used economic policy to maintain its political control over Ireland. This book not only sheds light on an important episode in Irish history but also provides valuable insights into the dynamics of colonial rule and resistance.
