The book is addressed to Lord Grenville, a prominent British politician and economist, and discusses the Sinking Fund, a government program designed to reduce the national debt through the accumulation of funds set aside for its repayment.

He also criticizes the government's management of the fund, citing examples of mismanagement and corruption. The book provides a detailed analysis of the economic and political factors affecting the Sinking Fund and presents alternative solutions to the problem of national debt.
