Book Description
Excerpt from The Currency Question Freed From Mystery, in a Letter to Mr. Peel: Showing How the Distress May Be Relieved Without Altering the Standard It is now admitted 'on 'all hands, indeed it is felt by too many to be disputed, that the cause of the prevailing distress is the impossibility of obtaining remunerating prices for any of the products of industry; prices, that is, which will cover the costs of. Production, in which are included many heavy fixed money payments for rent, rates, taxes, debts, mortgages, annuities, &c. As these payments remain stationary, while the returns, out of which they are to come, have diminished daily for the last four years, and as this is general to every branch of production, it is evident, not only that the cause must be equally general, but also that the inevi table result of such a trade, namely bankruptcy, must soon be equally universal.

Book Description
Sir Robert Peel (1788-1850) was one of the most significant political figures in nineteenth-century Britain. He was also one of the most controversial. In this new, three-volume edition, Dr Richard Gaunt, an authority on Peel’s life and work, brings together a range of contemporary perspectives considering Peel’s life and achievements. From the first observation of Peel’s precocious talent as an Oxford undergraduate to his burgeoning reputation as a cabinet minister, the volumes draw together sources on Peel’s forty-year political career. The edition pays particular attention to the most controversial aspects of his political life – the granting of Catholic Emancipation in 1829, his ‘founding’ of the Conservative Party during the 1830s and the achievements of his landmark government of 1841-6, culminating in the repeal of the corn laws in 1846. It also considers Peel’s post-1846 career, and the unusual position he occupied in British politics before his untimely death in 1850. Combining perspectives from different parts of the political spectrum, the collection will be of use to a wide range of researchers, with interests in history, politics, religion, economics and political biography.
