Publisher's Synopsis
""Copy of Evidence as to the Incidence of Local Taxation"" is a book written by George Sclater-Booth and published in 1881. The book presents evidence on the issue of local taxation in England during the 19th century. It explores the impact of local taxes on different social classes and their ability to pay. The book includes an introduction by Sclater-Booth, followed by a collection of testimonies from various witnesses who were called to give evidence on the subject. The testimonies cover a range of topics, including the effects of local taxes on agriculture, industry, and trade, as well as the burden of taxation on the poor and working classes.
