Considerations Against Laying Any New Duty Upon Sugar is a book written by C.A. Heath in 1823. The book presents an argument against the imposition of any new taxes or duties on sugar. The author argues that such a tax would negatively impact the economy, as sugar was a crucial commodity in the production of many goods, including rum, chocolate, and confectionery. Heath also argues that a sugar tax would disproportionately affect the poor, who would be forced to pay a higher percentage of their income on the commodity. The book provides a detailed analysis of the sugar industry, including its history, production methods, and economic impact. It also discusses the politics of the time, including the ongoing debate over the abolition of slavery, which was closely tied to the sugar industry. Overall, Considerations Against Laying Any New Duty Upon Sugar is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the economic and social issues of the early 19th century.Also Contains A Letter To William W. Whitmore, Pointing Out Some Of The Erroneous Statements Contained In A Pamphlet By Joseph Marryat, And A Statement Of The Claims Of The West India Colonies To A Protecting Duty Against East India Sugar.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
