O książce

This is an eighteenth-century account of Britain's finances and credit (which were not in a good state at the time) and suggests ways in which the public debt might be repaid. The author begins by saying, «but a little consider, and you will soon find, Pride and Luxury, Corruption and Bribery, are the greatest Causes of our present Calamities; and if you do not discourage the Two first, and punish the Two last Evils, we shall speedily come to Destruction, and God will blast all our Endeavours.» it is, in effect a very early economic theory book.
