Bag om The Radical Cause Of The Present Distresses Of The West-India Planters Pointed Out (1807)

The Radical Cause Of The Present Distresses Of The West-India Planters Pointed Out is a book written by William Spence in 1807. The book is a critique of the British government's policies towards the West Indies, which Spence argues are causing economic distress for the planters in the region. Spence argues that the government's abolition of the slave trade, which had been a major source of labor for the planters, has led to a shortage of labor and an increase in the cost of production. He also criticizes the government's policies towards the sugar industry, which he argues are favoring other industries over the West Indies. Spence's book is a passionate defense of the West India planters and a call to action for the British government to change its policies towards the region. The book was controversial at the time of its publication and remains a valuable historical document for understanding the economic and political issues of the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
