Book Synopsis From the Corn Laws to Free Trade by : Cheryl Schonhardt-Bailey
Book excerpt: The repeal of Britain's Corn Laws in 1846, one of the most important economic policy decisions of the 19th century, has long intrigued and puzzled political scientists, historians, and economists. This book examines the interacting forces that brought about the abrupt beginning of Britain's free-trade empire.
