Early English Tracts on Commerce - John Ramsay McCulloch - Bog

This volume, Early English Tracts on Commerce, was edited by John Ramsay McCulloch and originally published in 1856. It contains essays on political economy written by: Thomas Mun, Lewes Roberts, Samuel Fortrey, William Petty, Dudley North, and Henry Martyn.

In her entry on McCulloch in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Phyllis Deane wrote: "It is now apparent that for most of the half-century
preceding his death [in 1864] this hard-working, largely self-educated Scot did more than any other economist of this day to introduce the new science of political economy to an interested public." The three edited McCulloch volumes now reprinted by CL Press show the enduring value of McCulloch's service to those interested in the history of economic thought and the historical arc of liberalism.
