Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique perspective from the late 18th century on the state of global trade and commerce, focusing on the British national debt, the banking system of the era, and ways to maintain the country's economy after years of war. The author presents plans to remediate the huge national debt without overly burdening the citizenry, which in turn would allow taxes to be reduced so businesses could thrive. The book outlines ways to reduce the value of currency to stimulate manufacturing and trade, including some of the author's own inventions and ideas for improving industries like shipbuilding and transportation. These plans even consider the potential loss of skilled workers to other countries because of the country's economic and political climate and offers some ideas for retaining and attracting the skilled labor force. For those interested in economic history, industrialization, and the development of international commerce, this book provides an insightful look at a pivotal period.
