Excerpt from An Inquiry: Concerning the Rise and Progress, the Redemption and Present State and the Management of the National Debt of Great Britain and Ireland
In the middle ages, when the ferocious spirit which had formerly animated the northern nations, had in some degree subsided while commerce was still in its infancy, and little national wealth accumulated; wars were carried on languidly, and were generally of short duration. Their operations were frequently interrupt ed by truces, and sometimes discontinued through mere feebleness. A victorious army, conducted by a war like leader, was obliged to stop short in a successful career, from want of resources.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history and principles of Britain's growing national debt from the 1600s to early 1800s. The author ponders how the national debt came into being and grew over time and then examines the various plans that were created to manage and reduce it. Their analysis leads to a discussion of the ways public debt is calculated as part of a nation's budget and how such debt is often mistakenly understood. By analyzing past financial policies, this book seeks to shed light on the benefits and risks of various debt reduction schemes and considers their relevance to prudent financial policy in the present day.
