The State Of The Public Debts And Finances At Signing The Preliminary Articles Of Peace In January 1783

"The State Of The Public Debts And Finances At Signing The Preliminary Articles Of Peace In January 1783" by Richard Price offers a crucial snapshot of Great Britain's economic condition following the American Revolutionary War.

Price doesn't merely diagnose the problem; he also proposes a detailed plan for raising money through public loans, aiming to stabilize and rejuvenate the British economy. His insights into public finance and economic policy provide valuable context for understanding the challenges faced by governments in times of peace after periods of extensive conflict. This work remains relevant for economists, historians, and anyone interested in the intersection of politics and economics during a pivotal era in British history.
