This book presents a historical examination of protective tariffs in the US, arguing that they have been implemented in an inconsistent, ignorant manner, driven by sectional interests with little regard for the public good. The author, a professor, traces the history of protectionism from its origins and shows how it has been used as a tool to benefit specific industries at the expense of the overall economy. Along the way, the author explores the broader context of trade policy and the arguments for and against free trade. The book concludes that protectionist policies have hindered the nation's productive power and diminished the general welfare of the people.
