    Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. With skilled historical and literary analysis, this book explores the deepening economic crisis in Great Britain in the early 19th century, examining the failures, cover-ups, and obfuscations of Prime Minister Henry Addington's administration. The author, with meticulous precision, reveals the extent to which the government propagated a false narrative of financial optimism, painting a rosy picture while the country's economy deteriorated sharply. The book masterfully presents a clear and accurate picture of this pivotal period, shedding light on the complexity of the financial crisis and setting the stage for the economic and political turmoil that would follow. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. …

    Hardcover. Zustand: Acceptable. Fourth Edition. 119,397pp. This book has a few issues. The front cover is loose and the rear hinge is cracked. There is a bookplate inside the front cover. "L. Hays", I think it says, but the calligraphy is hard to read, and the "L" might be an "F". The boards are worn, as expected for a 221-year-old book. There may be an advertising page missing at the end. The biggest issue, though, is visible in the pictures: the top right corner has been torn from four leaves at the beginning, affecting the second blank leaf, the title page, and the first two pages of the Preface. This affects the text on those pages. I have laid in re-printings of those pages taken from a reprinting of the 1802 edition. The only textual difference appears to be the word "INTRODUCTION" instead of "PREFACE". (63021).…

    Four red ruled 8vo account books, vellum wrap-around bindings, lettered in ink. v.g. A printed label at the beginning of each volume requests that 'Customers will have the goodness to send them a List of such Bills as are accepted payable at their House, from time to time, previously to their becoming due.' There are further requests to leave the book for the bank to agree with the ledgers monthly and annually, just before Christmas. With a starting balance of £802.1.7d and a closing balance in 1840 of £2,910.12.4d, the books for John Charles give a full account of financial transactions over some 18 years. Sir Robert's book is for five years, £10,162.4.6d to a concluding balance of £8,458.10.3d.
