Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Return to Protection
A second edition being called for at a time when I have little right to be thinking of anything but my work as one of the Royal Commissioners on the Poor Laws, I have contented myself with adding a few notes, for the most part bringing the more important statistics up to date. I have not made any material alteration on the former edition.
Nor do I think it necessary. The case for Free Trade has only been strengthened by the events of the past two years, and, although I might change the form, I do not think I should make any change in the substance.
